Sometimes our personal style can seem dull and uninteresting – but, it doesn’t have to.

Today I want to share with you simple ways to freshen up your wardrobe and style – without breaking the bank.

1. Get your closet ready for a new season

I know this doesn’t sound very fresh & fun, but trust me, it is! Cleaning out your closet by purging items you no longer wear or want, and putting clothes perfect for warmer weather front and center can make your wardrobe feel fresh and exciting again.

Not only that, it will remind you of the entire stock of clothes you already have and love, and you can build on that.

If you feel overwhelmed with where to start with organizing your closet, here is an easy step by step approach for closet organization.

2. Replace wardrobe staples that have worn out.

Cleaning out your closet may have reminded you that some of your timeless staples need replacing. For instance, I tend to have one pair of favorite jeans that I wear on a regular basis year after year. However, clothing items just don’t last forever! Note down items that you love wearing, but are in need of replacing.

For Spring, you may notice that some of your favorite t-shirts are looking a little dingy. Again, take note and shop for pretty new replacements. I found this perfect t-shirt when I was shopping recently. It has a pretty puffy sleeve in just the right length, comes in a lot of color options, and is so reasonably priced!! I also love the versatility of a nice striped shirt. It pairs well with so many things!

3. Try something trendy!

I’m not really concerned with keeping up with “trends”, but I do like to take note of them. I’ve noticed high rise wide leg pants are in style again, but after trying on many pairs, I just haven’t found the right ones for me.

Another trend I’ve noticed is comfy lounge wear dressed up to be town wear. Now, I don’t like to see that get out of hand and am not going to start shopping in my pjs! However, I do love the bamboo shorts and t-shirt I recently got from Cozy Earth. Here’s how I styled those pieces to make all kinds of outfits!

4. Paint your nails a pretty new color

I find the changing up nail colors is a fun and inexpensive way to perk up your look.

After trying various brands, I’ve landed on the Essie gel line that I prefer most of all. It is easy to apply, and lasts so nicely all week long. Then, it’s easy to remove with simple nail polish remover. I use a base coat and a top coat in addition to the pretty polish color of choice. I’ve noticed that neutral nails are popular, so I’ve enjoyed trying out some new colors.

6. Pick up a fun new lip color

Lip stick or lip gloss isn’t that expensive, and it’s a great way to add a fresh new color to your Spring style. I absolutely love trying out new colors, but there is one color and brand that I go back to over and over again. Pure Anada Ruby lipstick is my all-time fav! In fact, it’s the only lipstick that I’ve completely run out of and replaced! 

You can see a whole variety of lip colors I tried on here.

7. Add a kimono for pattern and interest

I love to add a colorful kimono to simple outfits to dress them up a bit. And, a bonus with kimonos is that they don’t add a lot of heat to an outfit.

Here are some kimono options similar to some of my favorites on Amazon.

7. Finish off an outfit with fun accessories.

A fun, new pair of earrings , bracelet, or necklace can make an outfit come to life.

I reach for my classic silver hoop earrings most of all, but here are some more options that are versatile, too:

• pearl drop earrings
• gold hoop earrings
• rattan earrings look so great with casual outfits
