Korean Glass Skin has taken the beauty world by storm, and I’m completely hooked! I’m diving into Korean skincare, exploring the routines, and trying out products — but where do I even begin? Big thanks to Ellie Choi, whose viral glass skin-care routine made this trend explode globally.

It’s more than a trend; it’s an obsession that has captivated the beauty community, and this fascination with Korean glass skin shows no signs of fading. But what does “glass skin” actually mean? Essentially, it’s the goal of achieving skin that’s clear, free of congestion, blemish-free, even-toned, glowing, dewy, and soft — as transparent and radiant as glass itself. It sounds almost too good to be true, but the results are within reach!

Ever wondered why Koreans seem to have such glass-like, radiant, and supple skin? While genetics and diet do play a role, their dedication to skincare is equally important.

The great news? You can achieve that coveted glass skin at home with this straightforward guide! Here, I’ve broken down a step-by-step Korean skincare routine that you can easily follow. You’ll find recommendations for both natural ingredients and Korean products available on the market, so you can customize it based on your preferences.

Ultimately, the choice is yours on how you’d like to approach it, but consistency, the right products, and hydration are key. With dedication and this guide, you’ll be on your way to achieving glass-like, glowing skin at home!

      Step-by-Step Guide to 10-step Korean Glass Skin routine at home

      STEP 1: CLEANSING

      More precisely, the term “Double Cleansing” describes this crucial first step in the Korean glass skin routine. It involves two cleansing stages: first, using an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup, sunscreen, and impurities, followed by a foam or water-based cleanser to deeply clean the pores. Double cleansing ensures a clean slate, setting the foundation for the rest of the skincare routine and helping you achieve that flawless, glass-like finish.

      Oil Cleansing

      The first essential step in the Korean glass skin routine is oil cleansing. An oil-based cleanser gently removes makeup, dirt, and other impurities from the skin without stripping away its natural moisture. You can use a store-bought oil cleanser or make your own at home using natural oils.

      Oil cleansers are effective at dissolving impurities, leaving your skin clean yet hydrated. For a homemade cleanser, try blending coconut and castor oils — just remember to skip castor oil if you have dry skin, as it can be too drying. Olive oil is an excellent alternative for dry skin, helping maintain a soft, nourished feel.

      DIY Oil Cleanser Recipe

      1. Prepare Your Base Oil
        Start by adding cold-pressed, extra virgin coconut or olive oil to a jar or pump bottle. These oils are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and have natural antibacterial properties.
      2. Melt Coconut Oil (if using)
        If you’re using coconut oil, scoop or pump it into a bowl. Melt the oil by placing the bowl in warm water — avoid using the microwave to preserve nutrients.
      3. Combine Oils
        Add olive oil to the melted coconut oil, then transfer the mixture into a bottle. Shake well before each use, as the oils may naturally separate over time.
      4. Customizing for Skin Type
        • For Oily and Acne-Prone Skin: Add a few drops of tea tree oil to your base. Its antimicrobial and antiseptic qualities are beneficial for acne.
        • For Aging Skin: Add lavender or frankincense oil to your base for added anti-aging benefits.

      This gentle, natural oil cleanser is easy to customize and helps effectively remove impurities while nourishing your skin.

      How to Use Your Oil Cleanser
      Take about a teaspoon of the oil cleanser and gently massage it over your face using soft, circular motions. This helps lift dirt, makeup, and excess sebum from the skin. Rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove impurities and prepare your skin for the next step.

      Foam Cleansing

      The foam cleansing step purifies the skin on a deeper level, removing any leftover residue from oil cleansing and deeply cleansing the pores. This step creates a fresh, clean canvas for the remaining skincare routine. You can use a store-bought foaming cleanser or make a homemade version to suit your skin’s needs.

      DIY Foaming Face Wash

      Homemade Rice Water Face Wash Recipe

      You’ll Need:

      • Soap dispenser
      • Measuring cup
      • Spoon
      • 2/3 cup rice water
      • 1/3 cup liquid Castile soap
      • 2-3 drops of a mild essential oil (like jojoba, lavender, or moringa oil)

      Instructions:

      1. Mix Ingredients:
        Start by measuring 2/3 cup of rice water and 1/3 cup of liquid Castile soap. Pour both into a measuring cup.
      2. Add Essential Oil:
        Add 2-3 drops of your preferred mild essential oil for added nourishment and fragrance.
      3. Transfer to Dispenser:
        Pour the mixture into a soap dispenser, then gently swirl the bottle before each use to keep the ingredients well-mixed.

      Rice water is a staple in Korean skincare, celebrated for its high concentration of vitamins and minerals, which help to brighten, hydrate, and smooth the skin — an essential for achieving that luminous glass-skin look.

      How to Make Rice Water:
      To make rice water, rinse 1/2 cup of uncooked rice, then soak it in 2-3 cups of water for 30 minutes. Strain the water and store it for use as a toner, hair rinse, or as an ingredient in your skincare routine.

      STEP 2 : EXFOLIATE

      The second step in the Korean glass skin routine is exfoliation, which is essential for sloughing away dead skin cells and unclogging pores, revealing a youthful glow and radiant complexion. Exfoliating not only enhances your skin’s appearance but also improves its ability to absorb other skincare products and removes excess oil trapped in pores.

      You can choose between physical exfoliation (like scrubs or brushes) or chemical exfoliation. While traditional physical exfoliation has been a staple, the beauty world is increasingly shifting toward chemical exfoliants for their effectiveness and gentleness. Personally, I’ve become a huge fan of chemical exfoliation, but I still cherish the nostalgic appeal of coffee and orange scrubs. The delightful aromas are simply irresistible!

      Check out the recipes mentioned below—I’m sure you’ll love trying them! Just a couple of reminders: avoid exfoliating daily and concentrate on the areas that need it most. For more information on exfoliation and the latest trends, read here.

      DIY Exfoliators

      • Orange Peel Powder Face Scrub
      • Sugar Citrus Scrub
      • Gram flour and yogurt face scrub

        STEP 3: TONNER

        A toner is essential for balancing your skin’s pH levels and softening its texture. It refreshes your complexion, absorbs excess oil, minimizes the appearance of pores, and helps prevent them from clogging, which can lead to acne. Additionally, a good toner tightens the skin, enhancing its overall appearance. When choosing a toner, look for one that is both hydrating and clarifying to ensure it prepares your skin effectively for the next step in your skincare routine.

        DIY Rice Water Toner

        Rice water toner is excellent for brightening your skin and tightening large pores. Here’s how to make a DIY rice toner, which is an integral step in achieving Korean glass skin at home. When applying the toner, avoid rubbing or pulling at your skin; instead, lightly dab it on and allow it to absorb fully. Remember, do not rinse off any products after this step!

        STEP 4: ESSENCE

        Essence is a vital step in achieving Korean glass skin at home. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, think of essence as a lighter, less concentrated version of serum with a water-like consistency. It enhances the skin’s cellular renewal process, boosting elasticity and firmness while promoting a brighter complexion. Essences deliver essential moisture and target specific skin concerns, such as pigmentation and rosacea. This step has long been a cornerstone of the Korean glass skin routine, and it has recently gained worldwide popularity.

        DIY Rice Essence

        DIY Rice Water Essence Recipe

        Ingredients:

        • 1/2 tsp rice water
        • 1 tbsp glycerin
        • 3 tbsp rose water
        • 8-10 drops of jojoba oil or rose essential oil
        • Aloe vera gel (enough to achieve a slightly runny consistency)

        Instructions:

        1. Combine Ingredients:
          In a mixing bowl, add 1/2 tsp of rice water, 1 tbsp of glycerin, and 3 tbsp of rose water.
        2. Add Oil:
          Include 8-10 drops of jojoba oil or rose essential oil for added nourishment.
        3. Incorporate Aloe Vera:
          Gradually add aloe vera gel until the mixture reaches a slightly runny consistency.
        4. Blend Well:
          Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
        5. Store:
          Transfer the mixture into a pump bottle for easy application.

        This homemade essence will help hydrate your skin while targeting specific concerns, making it a fantastic addition to your Korean glass skin routine!

        STEP 5: SERUM/ AMPOULE

        An ampoule is essentially the Korean counterpart of a serum, offering a more concentrated formulation loaded with vitamins and antioxidants. Unlike essences, which are lighter, serums penetrate deeper into the skin, providing targeted treatment rather than just surface-level hydration. Serums nourish the skin, boost collagen production, and address various issues such as aging, uneven skin tone, and pigmentation. You can use ampoules both day and night; however, I personally prefer applying them at night. This allows your skin more time to absorb all the beneficial vitamins and antioxidants, enhancing their effectiveness.

        DIY Facial Serum Recipe

        Ingredients:

        • 2 tbsp rice
        • 1 cup milk
        • 4 tsp aloe vera gel
        • 2 tsp vitamin E oil
        • 2-3 drops of your favorite essential oil (optional)

        Instructions:

        1. Soak the Rice:
          Soak 2 tbsp of rice in water for 5-6 hours.
        2. Cook the Rice:
          After soaking, transfer the rice to a pan and add 1 cup of milk. Simmer on low heat until the rice is fully cooked.
        3. Strain the Liquid:
          Once cooked, strain the liquid from the rice into a separate bowl. This liquid will serve as the base for your serum.
        4. Combine Ingredients:
          Add 4 tsp of aloe vera gel, 2 tsp of vitamin E oil, and 2-3 drops of essential oil (if using) to the strained liquid.
        5. Mix Well:
          Blend all the ingredients together until well combined. You can adjust the quantity of aloe vera gel for your desired consistency.
        6. Store:
          Transfer the serum into a clean bottle or pump container for easy application.

        This DIY facial serum will provide hydration and nourishment, helping to enhance your skin’s overall health!

        Choose the essential oil according to your skin type

        • Normal- Lavender, Frankincense oil
        • Dry – Lavender, Sandalwood, Jasmine
        • Oily- Tea – tree, Lavender, Peppermint, rosemary

        STEP 6: SHEET MASKS – CERTAINLY A CRUCIAL STEP IN THE KOREAN GLASS SKICARE ROUTINE

        Sheet masks have become incredibly popular among Koreans and are current favorites in the beauty community. They pamper the skin, leaving it smooth and glowing. These masks are designed to hold onto nourishing ingredients, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin layers for optimal absorption. For the best results, you can use sheet masks two to three times a week.

        Available in a wide variety, you can easily purchase them or even make your own at home for a personalized touch!

        Instructions:

        1. Prepare the Sheet Mask Base:

        1. Make the Mask Solution:
        • In a bowl, combine rice water with a few drops of argan oil, a teaspoon of honey, and your chosen essential oil.

        1. Remove and Follow Up:
        • After 10 minutes, remove the mask and gently pat any remaining essence into your skin. Follow up with your regular skincare routine for best results.

        Enjoy your DIY sheet mask and the glow it brings to your skin!

        STEP 7: EYE CREAM

        Eye cream is an essential product to incorporate into your skincare routine as you approach your thirties. It plays a vital role in addressing concerns like wrinkles, dark circles, and fine lines that often arise with age. You can’t achieve that coveted glass skin look if you have dark circles, puffiness, or bags under your eyes.

        Starting early with an eye cream can help prevent these issues. To apply, simply dab a small amount of eye cream onto your fingertip and gently pat it around the eye area. Avoid tugging or pulling on the delicate skin; a light touch is key to ensuring the product absorbs without causing damage.

        DIY Eye Cream

        You can create an effective and affordable eye cream using coconut oil and vitamin E oil. Here’s how to make it:

        1. Melt Coconut Oil: Start by gently melting some coconut oil until it becomes liquid.
        2. Mix in Vitamin E: Stir in about 10 drops of vitamin E oil to the melted coconut oil.
        3. Store: Transfer the mixture into a small container for easy use.

        Benefits:

        • Coconut Oil: Known for its ability to lighten dark circles, coconut oil deeply moisturizes the skin and helps reduce wrinkles by supporting collagen strength. It also prevents puffiness and bags under the eyes.
        • Vitamin E: This powerful antioxidant combats free radicals that contribute to aging, helping to maintain youthful skin.

        For best results, gently massage the eye cream around your eye area to promote absorption and further lighten dark circles.

        STEP 8: MOISTURIZER

        A moisturizer effectively locks in moisture, replenishing your skin’s hydration levels and providing a radiant glow. Simply take a small amount in your palm and gently massage it into your face to boost blood circulation.

        DIY Rice Cream

        Ingredients:

        • 2 tsp rice
        • 1 cup water
        • 1 tsp milk
        • 2 tsp honey
        • 4 tsp aloe vera gel
        • Vitamin E oil (to taste)
        • Essential oil of your choice (e.g., frankincense oil)

        Instructions:

        1. Cook the Rice: In a pot, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil and let it cook until the rice is soft. Allow some of the water to evaporate and let it cool for about 15 minutes.
        2. Blend: Transfer the cooked rice (along with any remaining water) into a blender. Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
        3. Mix in Other Ingredients: Add the milk, honey, aloe vera gel, and a few drops of Vitamin E oil to the blended rice. If you’re using an essential oil, add that as well.
        4. Adjust Consistency: Blend again until all ingredients are well combined. If the mixture is too runny, you can add more aloe vera gel to achieve a slightly thick, gel-like consistency.
        5. Store: Transfer the rice cream into a clean container. Use it as a moisturizer to enjoy the benefits of rice for your skin!

        This DIY rice cream is packed with nutrients and hydration, making it a great addition to your skincare routine. Enjoy the glow!

        DIY Sleeping Mask:

        20 BEST SPRING OUTFITS TO MAKE YOU TRULY ELEGANT AND STYLISH

        Spring has sprung! As the days get longer, the flowers bloom, and the warm breeze whispers through the air, it’s the perfect time to shed your winter layers and embrace the fresh energy of the season. But with a new season comes the question: what to wear?

        This curated list of 20 spring outfits will inspire you to create elegant and stylish looks that are perfect for every occasion. From breezy dresses and chic jackets to timeless denim and playful pops of color, we’ve got you covered. So, get ready to ditch the hibernation mode and step out in style this spring!

        BROWN JACKET + BLUE JEANS + CHARM BAG

        The combo of a brown jacket, blue jeans, and a charm bag is a spring fashion staple for a reason. It’s endlessly adaptable! Want casual? Grab a bomber jacket and light wash jeans. Craving something dressier? A tailored blazer and dark wash denim elevate the look. Brown leather jackets offer cool sophistication, while suede adds a softer touch. Whatever your jacket style, pair it with straight-leg or bootcut jeans for a flattering fit. Light distressing adds personality, but avoid major rips for a polished look. The charm bag is the perfect finishing touch – a small crossbody with a detachable charm in leather for timeless elegance or canvas for a more casual vibe. 

        LEATHER TROUSERS + A WHITE BUTTON-DOWN  

        Leather pants and a white button-down offer a bold and unexpected spring combination that walks the line between edgy and chic. The key to mastering this look lies in balancing the textures and silhouettes. The fitted white button-down adds a touch of classic structure and elegance, perfectly counteracting the coolness and rebellion inherent in leather trousers. 

        Choose a crisp, well-ironed button-down for a polished touch, or opt for a slightly looser one with rolled sleeves for a more relaxed vibe. For the leather pants, high-waisted styles create a long, flattering silhouette, while straight-leg or slightly cropped cuts offer a modern feel. Play with textures – matte leather adds a sophisticated touch, while patent leather creates a more high-shine, dramatic look. To complete the outfit, consider your footwear. Heels add instant glamor, while sneakers or loafers create a cool, downtown vibe. 

        CROPPED KNIT + SHARP SHIRTING + CLASSIC JEANS 

        The cropped knit, sharp shirting, and classic jean combo is a perfect example of effortless spring layering. It’s a winning formula that combines comfort and style. The cropped knit, whether a sweater or cardigan, adds a touch of cozy texture and shows a hint of midriff. This creates a balanced silhouette when paired with sharp shirting underneath. 

        Opt for a crisp white button-down for a timeless look, or play with patterns and stripes for a more playful vibe. Leave the shirt collar slightly unbuttoned for a relaxed feel. Classic jeans, in either a straight-leg or slim-fit cut, ground the outfit and provide a casual base. 

        To elevate the look, choose dark wash denim or add a statement belt. This outfit combination works well with various footwear choices. Sneakers or loafers create a relaxed vibe, while heels or ankle boots can dress it up for a night out. 

        A BLACK MINI DRESS + FUN LOAFERS 

        The black mini dress and fun loafers combo is a spring and summer must-have for its effortless cool. It’s a versatile look that transitions from day to night. The little black dress itself is a timeless canvas, hugging your curves and exuding confidence. Choose a simple shift dress for a classic vibe, or a wrap dress for a touch of femininity. 

        Chunky platform soles add instant statement, metallics bring glam, and patterned loafers in polka dots or animal prints unleash your playful side. Don’t be afraid of a pop of color – a red or yellow loafer can be a surprising twist. Keep accessories minimal, letting the dress and loafers shine. Add a leather jacket or cropped blazer for an edgy touch. Dress it up with a clutch and statement earrings for a night out, or keep it casual with a tote bag and denim jacket for brunch. 

        TAILORED BLAZER + CAPRI LEGGINGS + METALLIC FLATS

        Cap it off with unexpected chic! The tailored blazer, capri leggings, and metallic flats combo is a fresh take on spring style. It’s all about balancing formality with fun.  A well-tailored blazer, fitted at the shoulders and nipped at the waist, provides polish against the casual capri leggings. Opt for opaque, dark-colored leggings that hit just above the ankle for a streamlined look. 

        Then comes the fun part – the metallic flats! Inject your personality with silver or gold, or get bolder with rose gold or bronze. Consider a matte finish for sophistication or a shiny one for extra glam. Keep accessories minimal and choose a structured bag like a satchel or crossbody to complement the blazer. 

        AN OVERSIZED CARDIGAN + COLORFUL DENIM 

        Cozy meets cool with the oversized cardigan and colorful denim pairing, a perfect outfit for breezy spring days. The oversized cardigan drapes effortlessly, adding a relaxed feel, while the colorful denim injects a dose of fun and personality.  For the cardigan, choose a chunky knit or a softer cashmere blend, depending on the desired level of warmth. Play with neutrals like cream or beige for a more versatile look, or embrace the season with pastel colors like lavender or light blue. 

        The key to balancing the oversized silhouette is the denim. Opt for high-waisted straight-leg jeans or a flattering bootcut for a streamlined look. The colorful part? Let your personality shine! Bright yellows, cool blues, or even a touch of pink or green add a playful touch. Keep the rest of your outfit simple – a white t-shirt or a cami underneath, and sneakers or booties for footwear. 

        LIGHTWEIGHT KNIT + PENCIL SKIRT + VINTAGE EARRINGS 

        The light-weight knit and pencil skirt combo is a match made in springtime elegance. It’s a perfect balance of comfortable and polished, ideal for work or a stylish weekend look. The lightweight knit, whether a sweater or a fitted tee, adds a touch of easygoing comfort without compromising sophistication. Choose a neutral color like cream or white for a timeless vibe, or embrace the season with pastel hues like lavender or mint green. 

        The key to keeping things polished lies in the pencil skirt. Opt for a classic knee-length cut in a sleek material like ponte knit or wool blend. This creates a flattering silhouette that complements the fitted top. Now for the vintage touch! Fun vintage earrings add a pop of personality and tie the outfit to your unique style. From bold geometric shapes to delicate pearls, the possibilities are endless. Keep your shoes simple – heels elevate the look for work, while flats or loafers create a more relaxed weekend vibe. 

        A SPARKLY LONG SLEEVE TOP + JEANS 

        Embrace your inner disco queen with a sparkly long-sleeve top and jeans! This glamorous and casual combo is perfect for a night out or adding some pizzazz to your everyday look. The sparkly top, whether sequined, glittery, or shimmering with metallic threads, instantly elevates your outfit.  Choose a fitted silhouette for a sleek look, or embrace a looser fit for a more relaxed vibe.  

        For the jeans, keep things casual with classic straight-leg or boyfriend cuts. Dark wash denim provides a nice contrast to the sparkle, but don’t be afraid to experiment with lighter washes for a more daytime-appropriate look. To complete the outfit, consider your footwear. Heels add instant glamour, while sneakers or booties create a cool, downtown edge. This sparkly-casual combination lets you shine and turn heads, whether you’re dancing the night away or adding a touch of fun to your weekend errands.

        RUFFLE BLOUSE + LONGLINE BLAZER + PYTHON MULES 

        Channel your inner fashionista with the statement-making combo of a ruffle blouse, longline blazer, and python mules. It’s a bold and unexpected mix that’s perfect for work, a night out, or when you want to own the room. 

        The ruffle blouse adds a touch of romantic femininity with its delicate details. Opt for a pastel color or a floral print to further soften the look, or choose a classic white or black for a more timeless vibe. The longline blazer creates a chic and balanced silhouette, taming the playfulness of the ruffles. A neutral color like black, navy, or beige complements the blouse and allows the python mules to take center stage. These exotic patterned mules add a dose of fierce energy and complete the outfit with a touch of unexpected flair. Keep your accessories minimal – delicate earrings and a sleek clutch will do the trick. 

        CARGO PANTS + A DENIM JACKET 

        The combo of cargo pants and a denim jacket is a relaxed yet cool outfit formula that’s perfect for casual outings or weekend adventures. It offers a sense of practicality with the cargo pants’ multiple pockets, ideal for stashing essentials on the go.  

        Choose a khaki or olive green cargo pant for a classic vibe, or opt for black for a more edgy look. Keep the fit relaxed but not baggy – straight-leg or slightly tapered cuts work well. The denim jacket adds a timeless touch and complements the casual feel of the cargo pants.  A light wash denim jacket creates a more laid-back look, while a dark wash adds a touch of sophistication. 

        Don’t be afraid to experiment with different jacket styles – a cropped denim jacket adds a modern twist, while an oversized one offers a more relaxed vibe. To complete the outfit, throw on a t-shirt or a Henley underneath for a casual feel. Sneakers are the perfect footwear choice, but loafers or boots can also work depending on the desired level of polish. 

        FLORAL DRESS + STATEMENT BLAZER 

        The floral dress and statement blazer duo is a perfect example of springtime elegance with a touch of personality. It’s a versatile combination that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. The floral dress adds a touch of femininity and romance, while the statement blazer injects a dose of sophistication and structure. When choosing your floral dress, consider the scale and color of the print. Smaller florals in soft pastels offer a more delicate look, while bolder prints in vibrant colors make a stronger statement.

        The statement blazer comes in endless possibilities – a cropped blazer adds a modern touch, while a double-breasted blazer exudes power. Play with bold colors, patterns like plaid or houndstooth, or even unexpected textures like velvet or leather.  Dress it down with sneakers or sandals for a casual brunch, or elevate the look with heels and statement earrings for a night out.

        A KNIT DRESS + CHUNKY BOOTS

        The knit dress and chunky boot pairing is a cozy yet chic outfit combo that thrives in the fall and winter months. It’s perfect for those days when you want both comfort and style. The knit dress, whether a sweater dress or a fitted midi, offers warmth and a relaxed feel. Choose a chunky knit for added texture or a fine knit for a more polished look. Neutrals like cream or black are timeless options, but jewel tones or rich browns add a seasonal touch. 

        Chunky boots are the stars of the show, injecting a dose of edge and personality. Ankle boots with chunky platforms or lug soles add instant style, while knee-high chunky boots create a long, flattering silhouette. Don’t be afraid to experiment with textures – leather offers a classic vibe, while suede adds a touch of softness. Complete the look with a statement necklace, a beanie for extra warmth, or a leather jacket for an edgy touch. 

        BRIGHT LAYERS + NEUTRAL TROUSERS 

        This look is perfect for spring and summer, allowing you to showcase your playful side while maintaining a chic foundation.  For the bright layers, think playful and eye-catching. A colorful kimono over a tank top, a vibrant sweater vest layered on a crisp white button-down, or a patterned blouse peeking out from under a cropped jacket are all great options. 

        Don’t shy away from bold colors – think sunshine yellow, sassy fuchsia, or a cool mint green. Opt for a straight-leg, wide-leg, or cropped cut in beige, khaki, or black. These neutral tones provide a grounding base that lets your colorful layers shine. To complete the look, keep your footwear simple – sneakers or sandals are perfect for casual outings, while heels can elevate the outfit for a night out. 

        A WHITE JUMPSUIT + COLORFUL HEELS 

        The white jumpsuit and colorful heels combo is a summery look that radiates confidence and effortless style. The white jumpsuit acts as a clean canvas, flattering most body types and exuding a sense of chic sophistication. You can choose a flowy wide-leg style for a breezy feel, a tailored jumpsuit for a more polished look, or even a belted option to cinch your waist and create a flattering silhouette.  Here’s where the fun comes in – the colorful heels! They add a pop of personality and let you showcase your playful side. 

        Don’t be afraid to experiment with bold colors – bright red heels, sunny yellow sandals or cool mint-toned mules will make a statement. Go with the prints – metallic heels add instant glamour, while platform sandals add a trendy touch. Keep your accessories to a minimum – delicate jewelry and a simple clutch will complement the clean lines of your jumpsuit without crowding out your colorful shoes. This versatile outfit is perfect for a summer brunch, a night out with friends, or even a dressier event with the right choice of heels. With this elegant outfit, consider adding highlights with spring nail designs for a perfect overall look.

        LEOPARD TRENCH + WHITE TEE + BAGGY JEANS

        The leopard trench takes center stage, its bold print adding instant personality and a touch of wildness.  A crisp white tee grounds the look, offering a clean base that lets the trench be the star. To balance the proportions, baggy jeans in a light wash or with some rips create a relaxed feel and contrast nicely with the structured silhouette of the trench. Want to dress it up? Swap the light wash for a dark one. Sneakers or loafers keep things casual, while ankle boots or heels can elevate the outfit for a night out. Accessorize minimally – a tote or crossbody bag in a neutral color and delicate jewelry won’t compete with the statement print. 

        A VEST SUIT 

        A vest suit is perfect for spring outfits because it adds a touch of elegance while keeping you comfortable in changing temperatures. The vest, or waistcoat, complements lighter fabrics and colors typically worn in spring, like pastels or soft neutrals. It layers well over shirts and under jackets, offering versatility for different weather conditions throughout the day. Whether paired with trousers or a skirt, a vest suit enhances your look with a polished and sophisticated style suitable for both casual and formal occasions.

        CAR COAT + DAINTY COLLAR + SWING SKIRT 

        A car coat paired with a dainty collar and a swing skirt creates a charming and timeless ensemble. The car coat, known for its versatility and classic silhouette, provides warmth and style without being too heavy for spring. A dainty collar adds a delicate detail, enhancing the neckline without overwhelming the outfit. Paired with a swing skirt, which flares out gracefully, the look becomes effortlessly elegant and feminine. This combination is ideal for spring days when you want to feel both chic and comfortable, blending practicality with a touch of vintage-inspired flair.

        A SHEER DRESS + NUDE SANDALS

        A sheer dress paired with nude sandals creates a light and ethereal look perfect for warm weather. The sheer fabric of the dress adds a delicate and airy feel, allowing for a hint of skin to show through while still maintaining elegance. Nude sandals complement the outfit by elongating the legs and providing a neutral base that doesn’t distract from the dress. This combination is ideal for spring and summer occasions where a graceful and effortless style is desired, offering both comfort and sophistication in one ensemble.

        LEATHER BOMBER + LOW-RISE TROUSERS + CHUNKY DAD SNEAKS 

        A leather bomber jacket paired with low-rise trousers and chunky dad sneakers creates a trendy and casual urban look. The leather bomber jacket adds a touch of edginess and warmth, making it suitable for cooler spring days or evenings. Low-rise trousers provide a relaxed fit and modern silhouette, contrasting with the structured style of the jacket. Chunky dad sneakers complete the outfit with a comfortable and sporty vibe, adding a fashionable element to the overall ensemble. This combination is perfect for those seeking a stylish yet laid-back outfit that merges streetwear with contemporary fashion trends.

        DENIM MAXI + YELLOW POP + SPORTY SHOES

The denim maxi skirt offers a relaxed and comfortable fit while maintaining a chic appearance suitable for various spring occasions. Adding a yellow pop top brings a vibrant and cheerful touch to the ensemble, making it stand out.
