The weather is finally warming up and it is time for us to bring out our spring shoes.

Senior Claudia Mesa is flaunting her classic black and white flats that can be paired with any solid colored dress or a pair of khaki shorts with a nice blouse.

These vibrant blue jelly Jack Rodgers worn by senior Aneri Shah are a perfect color for the spring season. These sandals look great with jean shorts and a cute top.

Freshmen Marley Hickie and Kiley McNeill are wearing cute striped and plaid shoes. Colorful Sperry’s are popular in both men and women styles and can be topped off with any classic preppy outfit.

Fashionable choices for spring

Spring is coming our way in just a few weeks, meaning no more freezing temperatures and back to being cool and mild. Here are some fashionable choices for guys and girls to wear to keep from being too chilly, while still looking fresh.

• Sweatpants: the classic lazy (and cozy) attire.
• Cardigan Sweaters: light enough not to make you too hot while still keeping you from being too chilly. Wear them over a nice button-down, t-shirt, or over a dress.
• Flannel shirt: whether buttoned up or left open, a flannel shirt is another classic top for that little extra warmth when it’s a bit too cold to go in just a t-shirt.
• Black and White striped shirts or dresses: the classic stripes will add some variety to your outfit.
• Boyfriend jeans/tee: oversized tee shirts and jeans for girls.
• Gingham dress: this checkered pattern is currently trending, and getting one in a soft color such as light blue will reflect the season perfectly.
• Dr. Martens: this trendy and hardy brand of shoes comes in many styles, including boots and low-cut shoes.
• Tie-dye: whether a shirt, pants, socks, or shoes, tie-dye is a fun way to bring in the warmer season with your own personal and unique touch.  
• Track pants: these very comfortable, stylish pants come with zipper pockets, which makes carrying items around much more convenient.
• Floral prints: with flowers blooming all around, become part of the season with a flowery dress for girls or a Hawaiian shirt for guys.
• Fringe suede jacket: this attention grabbing throwback to the 1970s has become a hit in the digital age among all kinds of people.
