Four Ways to Upgrade Your Spring 2019


Gems, spring is around the corner and I can just feel the excitement all around! I am so ready to ditch this cold weather. I live for the ‘light jacket and spring dress’ season. Spring instantly just changes my mood. It’s something about the season that just shouts joy.

For most, spring is appealing for its wonderful 70 something-degree average temps. However, spring offers so much more than good weather and beautiful colors. When March 20th hits and the season changes, I want you to think about you and the changes you would like to make. Here are four joyous ways to upgrade your spring.

1. Get Out More (Meet New People)

Sounds simple enough right? If the weather is better of course you’d want to get out and enjoy it. However, I am not just talking about going outside. I am talking about going outside and joining a group or activity that would place you around new people. Try a local yoga class or maybe even join a cycling club. Whatever activity it is, try it! You never know who you might meet!

2. Try A New Style

Okay so yes, I think we all love a beautiful spring dress but let’s spice it up a bit. It is okay to go to your regulars but while you’re out shopping for your new spring wardrobe, try on that one piece that you would never think twice about. For me last year, it was shorts. Now some of my favorite fits have shorts. I actually love them now! For you it may not be shorts but for whatever it is try stepping out of your comfort zone. You could be unlocking new styles that you never knew could work for you and your body type.

3. Redecorate

Your home is where your heart is. When you walk into it, there should definitely be positive vibes and a feeling of calm. If there isn’t, spring is a good time to try and create your oasis. Change the furniture, add some color and patterns, or even paint the walls. Even if your home is the inviting, calm place that makes you relax, I say still switch it up. Move the furniture around, dec the walls, or organize something differently. Changing our scenery feels so empowering and it gives our creative genius a time to shine!

4. Spring Clean (Take out the Trash)

Lastly, Gems. We must clean. All of these beautiful changes deserve a clean place to reside in. This could mean your mind, heart, house, car, job, wherever! Take inventory of all the things that have bothered you during the winter months and clean house. If it’s an old boyfriend or an old purse. Toss it!

Change is inevitable and there is nothing like taking a hold of ourselves and making choices that’ll bring us peace. Gems, spring is yours! Make it what you need it to be!
