Spring is here and it’s time to dress in breezy fabrics, spring colors and light layers! One of the trends for spring is “Coastal Prep” and I’m excited for it! This trend is a mix of coastal pieces with pops of preppy styles. Think stripes, cropped jeans and pants, cardigans, sweaters, loafers/boat shoes, and beach totes as everyday bags.

I found several pieces at Talbots that are perfect for coastal prep outfits and created a Coastal Prep Mini Spring Capsule Wardrobe! Plus, they are all on sale in the Spring In Bloom sale event going on now at Talbots. Hurry, the sale ends April 9!

You can pack this mini capsule wardrobe in your suitcase as a travel wardrobe! All the clothes and shoes mix and match effortlessly together so you have lots of outfit options!

Talbots is one of my most favorite retailers! They have many styles to choose from, whether you are looking for wardrobe staples in versatile neutrals or pieces with lovely, bright colors and patterns. I have added several pieces from Talbots to my closet and include their pieces often in my outfits.

Last month I added this Vachetta Bucket Bag in “Havana Tan” and the same color Leather Belt in “Havana Tan” to my closet and I absolutely love them! The “havana tan” color is the perfect tan color tone and goes with so many outfits! The Vachetta Bucket Bag reminds me of a quiet-luxury style with a top handle, snap closure and shoulder/crossbody strap. You can carry this bag on your shoulder, crossbody, or by the top handle after removing the long strap. The Leather Belt is the perfect width to wear with pants, skirts, shorts and dresses! I’m so glad I added these two accessories to my wardrobe!

For size reference: my height is 5’9″ and I weigh approximately 175 lbs., have an hourglass figure and am mid-size. For tops, I typically wear a size Large (12), depending on the brand and fit of the top. For bottoms, my usual size is a 12, waist 31; a 10-inch high rise fits my waist the best and a 28 inch inseam falls at my ankle, 30 inch inseam is full-length on me. My shoe size is 9 medium or 40EU.

Here is how I styled the tops, bottoms, cardigan and sandals to make several outfits.

Outfit #1

This is the Ladder Stitch Crewneck Tee in “indigo blue” (size Large). The ladder stitching across the top of the tee gives it an elevated look! I’m wearing it with the Wide Crop Released Hem Jeans (size 12). I love the released hem and the front pockets on these jeans! I added all matching shoes and accessories to complete the look: Kaia Vachetta Demi Wedge Slides (size 9), Leather Belt in “havana tan” and Vachetta Bucket Bag in “Havana Tan”.

Outfit #2

I swapped the tee with this 180° Two-Way Tank – Belleville Stripe in “indigo/white” (size Large). This tank is an essential wardrobe staple and it is one of my most favorites in my closet! It is reversible, so you can wear the crewneck side or v-neck side, depending on the look you want. I layered the Shaker Stitch V-Neck Cardigan in “white” (size Large). The style of this cardigan is perfection! It has buttons down the front and is a v-neck style so it is easy to layer a top underneath, plus it is 100% cotton making it easy to wear in the spring.

Outfit #3

If you take this capsule wardrobe with you while traveling, this outfit will be great for sightseeing in a warm weather destination! The tank, these Wide Leg Ankle Pants in “cool beige” (size 12) and Kaia Vachetta Demi Wedge Slides (size 9) will keep you cool while you are walking!

Outfit #4

One of my most favorite fabrics to wear is chambray denim. The ruffle detail on the neckline and sleeves on this Ruffle Button Front Denim Top (size Large) is perfect! The fabric is a soft 100% cotton so it is breathable and flowy.

Outfit #5

Here is another outfit idea with these Everyday Relaxed Jeans in “Canarsie Wash” (size 12). They have a slightly relaxed leg and the denim fabric is soft and stretchy with the cotton/lyocell/spandex blend! You can wear them cuffed like I’m wearing them below or uncuffed depending on the look of your outfit.

Outfit #6

Here is another way to wear the Ladder Stitch Crewneck Tee in “indigo blue” (size Large) and the Wide Leg Ankle Pants in “cool beige” (size 12) with the Kaia Vachetta Demi Wedge Slides (size 9).

You can throw the Shaker Stitch V-Neck Cardigan in “white” (size Large) over your shoulders if you get chilled during the day or evening.
