I don't know about you guys, but with lockdown STILL going on here in Germany, the times I am actually going out, I find myself facing the impossible task of getting dresses, haha! Recenlty, I've been truly asking myself how I used to put outfits together and what to freaking wear. Now, as the temps have warmed up a bit and since Spring is one of my fav seasons to dress up for, I was in desperate need of some spring styling inspo!
Cue Pinterest, my favorite place for - basically anything, lol - outfit inspiration! I pulled out five outfits that I loved so so much on first look and definitely want to recreate this season. I also linked some similar items below each photo, in case there are one or two items you like from the outfits that you currently do not already have in your wardrobe! :)

Happy Friday guys!
Today I wanted to share a quick blogpost on these black braided sandals I recently picked up from H&M. I feel like these are just absolutely perfect for the warmer months coming up and I've styled them with so many outfits already - they go with everything!
I have not worn these for a long time at a time yet, however, they do feel very comfortable and the slightly wider heel makes them very easy to walk in. These sandals are trendy, versatile and - the best part? They are only $30!
What do you think about the woven or braided sandal trend? Which shoes are you wearing this Spring/Summer? Let me know in the comments below!
Thank you so much for stopping by and reading!

Shop the capsule collection:
If you are anything like me, you absolutely can not wait for the weather to warm up further and to start pulling out all your Spring attire! And if you live anywhere with similar weather to Germany - you are currently freezing while trying to pull of light sneakers and transitional jackets, haha!
But I can still prepare early and get my wardrobe Spring/ Summer ready, right? I wanted to put together a sort of "capsule collection" type shopping guide to help you get a kick-start on any Spring must-have you might miss in your wardrobe. Now, I know that a "capsule wardrobe" has a specific meaning to it that does have a loyal following with some very explicit rules, haha, however, I wanted to keep things more inspirational and give you a good selection without being overwhelming, which switching your wardrobe for a new season can often be in my opinion!
I also included under $50 as well as $100 categories for each item, as you know that I believe you don't have to spend a ton to have a well thought-out and stylish wardrobe :) I hope you find this helpful!

Outerwear
I feel outerwear can be a bit tricky to nail for Spring time as it is so highly individual and definitely depends on the temperatures! However, in my opinion there are two definite staples, that belong in any wardrobe during this time of the year: a denim jacket and a leather jacket! Whereas I prefer an oversized, light washed and even slightly distressed jean jacket, for a leather jacket I like to go form-fitted and - for the warmer months - even for some fun lighter colors!

Bottoms
I don't know about you guys, but I have fully emerged into the non-skinny jeans trend! I love the more relaxed cuts and for summer I definitely opt for lighter washed and some distressing. Another style of bottoms I really like for spring are neutral colored pants! Whether you go for some wide leg or more tailored styles, you will for sure find something in the widgets below.

Tops
Now, this is probably my favorite categorie to update for Spring! There's just something about lighter tops, flowy blouses and cute necklines that I can not get enough of. This season, I will absolutely embrace square necklines, puff sleeves and ditsy floral patterns!

Dresses
Even though I am such a jeans-and-a-tee kind of girl pretty much all year around, Spring time is when I do embrace the more girly side to my personal style! Think romantic dresses, ruffles, flirty cuts and beautiful colors and patterns.

Shoes
There's nothing better than Spring shoes in my opinion! White sneakers, cute sandals and stylish mules - I love them all! There are definitely some splurge-worthy shoes on the market right now, that I can't wait to get my hands on, but I focused on listing some of my more affordable favs below.

Accessories
Once the warmer weather rolls around I feel like I am re-discovering playing around and experimenting with accessories again! My handbags definitely become smaller and more colorful, and with the goes-without-saying staple sunglasses, I find myself throwing in some fun accessories like headbands or hats in the mix!
