Weather Confused : Transitioning Winter Pieces into Spring

Sometimes transitions suck. It's a period of change that sometimes seems to drag on and on and on. When looking at fashion that means trading in you winter boots for bright sandals or that scarf for a chunky floral necklace. But hey! We can all be fashion rebels right? Who said we can't bend the rules now and then? This winter, one of my obsessions was my fur vest, but now spring has come and I sadly stuck my vest in the back of my closet.... or did I? Here's how I styled this fur vest for spring!:

 {Tip: Pair a heavy piece like the vest with a looser more "flowy" top to balance out hard and soft}

{Tip: Roll up the sleeves of a long sleeve shirt for a more casual look.
Oops! my bag was backwards. }



 { Tip: Use a bright necklace to pull more color into a look. This necklace also ties back in with my floral oxfords}

               {These shoes are my go to shoes for spring and totally "spring-ify" any outfit}

{ Unfortunately by the time this was posted I already messed my nails up :( I love the geometric shapes with the pastel colors. I was too lazy to do all of my other nails :P}

{ A Jimmy Choo purse?!!? Nope. It's a knockoff from the Philippines :) Shhh! }

Accessories:
      Watch- ESPIRT (I actually found this on the sidewalk in LA...}
      Purse- Jimmy Choo (knockoff... hehe)
      Pearl Earrings from the Philippines
      Jade Necklace- My mom's :)
      Shoes- Forever XXI
      Belt- Thrifted

Outfit:
     Fur Vest: XXI
     White Blouse: Forever XXI
     Dark Wash Skinny Jeans: Forever XXI
     White Tank Top (under blouse): Forever XXI
     ( I was all in Forever XXI.... weird....)

Makeup:
    Nails: Go Go Pink by China Glaze (All)
             Mint Sorbet by Sally Hansen
             Blue Nailpolish (It doesnt have a name) by Kiko ( got it in Italy!)
    Lips: Visionary by Lancome
    Hair: please ignore it... it's in it's natural state haha

xoxo,

      Jess 

PS. The funny thing is... I bought the fur vest two years ago for a costume. I was the bird in Little Mermaid and I was trying to find the ugliest fur/feather thing at Forever XXI. 

PPS: I'm still trying to work on the photo quality! Hopefully it will get better in time :)
