Spring’s Hottest Trends #GotItAtSears

Spring is always an interesting time weather-wise in Canada, and certainly here in Saskatchewan. One day it’s beautiful, warm and sunny – the next, we have snow!

What’s a girl to do? As soon as the snow is gone, regardless if it threatens to come back, I pack away all my winter sweaters and boots and pull out all my summer wear. Yes, there’s that in-between time right now where I need to incorporate items into my wardrobe to get me through this weird Spring weather, and this year Sears Canada is here to help.

They’ve teamed up with style expert Liv Judd Soye to introduce the brand’s stylish selects for the upcoming season and compile a selection of head-to-toe quality looks featuring must-have essentials, brand names you love and Sears private label picks. If you follow Sears Canada on Facebook you may have seen them sharing Liv’s cross-country media tour too!

Liv Judd Soye has shared three trends for Spring/Summer 2017:

Got It At Sears

Picnic plays on Hamptons chic and the crisp preppy style of classic Americana. In this trend, sportswear influences are mixed with nautical stripes by adding contemporary details to a fresh colour pallet.

PICNIC

Liv’s tips on how to wear this trend:

Live dangerously – Update your wardrobe with exaggerated silhouettes, like wide leg pants or flared sleeves. (Yes, you can pull it off!)

Ditch misconceptions – Stripes sometimes get a bad rap for adding the illusion of weight, which isn’t true. Find a nautical stripe that looks and feels good and invest in it! Not only are they wardrobe basics but they pair with everything from over-the-top prints to timeless pieces.

Embrace sporty – Sportswear/athleisure influences see no sign of slowing down, so nab a bomber or sporty accessory ASAP.

Got It At Sears

This updated take on the traditional bohemian summer story mixes crafty embellishments and casual linens to create a look that’s perfect for weekend getaways and outdoor festivals. Look for crochet details and trims, crinkled fabrics, and a vibrant colour palette.

NEO NOMAD

Liv’s tips on how to wear this trend:

Stay sharp – Polish the earthy feel of this trend with sharp silhouettes or structured details such as a block heel, tailored jacket or a boxy bag.

Find the flow – This trend has a strong boho feel. Look for long skirts and ruffles.

Stick with subtly – Not ready to wear head-to-toe Neo Nomad? Incorporate the trend with khaki textiles, crochet detailing or exotic global prints.

Got It At Sears

Every day is a garden party in the French countryside with these romantic looks filled with delicate florals and soft fabrics. Perfect for serene social gatherings, this trend embodies feminine details.

This is my absolute favorite trend this spring! I love all the pretty florals and the pastels – always a part of spring – are perfect for highlighting the punch of pattern that floral items bring to your wardrobe.

La Jardin

Liv’s tips on how to wear this trend:

Play past pastel – This trend is all about femininity, so naturally delicate blush colours are a go-to with pretty lace accents and flowy romantic fabrics. But this trend also has a darker side, consider florals or girly details in muted or darker tones — great for those who feel more comfortable wearing a darker palette.

Bring in the boy – Tone down the pretty vibe of spring florals with a classic Canadiana look of denim on denim.

Contrast, contrast, contrast – Ground a romantic blush coloured jacket with a graphic statement-making slogan tee. It’s a subtle take on the trend but still makes a statement.

All of the items shown above, and so much more, can be found right now at your nearest Sears Canada location, or you can shop online at Sears.ca!
