At the beginning of spring, it’s still cold so we can’t just run outside in our shorts all of a sudden…although some people do anyways. That’s okay if they like to dive right in like that. But I like to stay cozy. It’s much warmer and easier to just start in on wearing spring colors. I’m writing this in time for the first day of spring, because I consider this the ideal time to start wearing the Spring/Summer 2026 colors.
Besides providing a mood and feeling, color is a basic component of our wardrobe. It can help everything to coordinate, creating a greater amount of outfits from what you have.
The Pantone Color Institute reports biannually on the fashion runway color trends, color psychology and more. This post presents their Spring/Summer 2026 color report from New York Fashion Week (NYFW.) Since these colors are trending, you will look modern when you wear them. Age doesn’t matter when you’ve got style!

It makes sense to me that maxi skirts are trending for Spring and Summer, because I tend to reserve them for the warm weather months. They don’t seem warm (let me know if you disagree) but rather, they seem cooling due to their loose and airy qualities. So now that I am into maxi-skirt season, I’m sharing my outfit ideas on how to wear them at this time. Age doesn’t matter. Take these ideas and adapt them to your preferences. I hope this will help you to enjoy wearing this beautiful piece more often!

A slip dress is not only a sexy little slip of a thing. It can be worn solo in the summer, of course, or when you’re feeling sexy….But does it really have to be sexy? The answer is no. You can wear it night or day and do so many things with it! Layer under and/or over it: light layers during the spring and summer and heavy layering during the fall and winter. You can add as many layers as you want. It makes the slip dress wearable for all. Age doesn’t matter.
