Can we talk cute spring outfits? I'm sharing 10 pieces that are must owns for anyone with a pear shaped body!

Spring Outfits Must Own Pieces: These overalls are spring requirements for a pear shaped body!

Is anyone else a little overly excited to start thinking about spring outfits? As much as I love sweaters and cozy jackets……I'm ready for sunshine, dresses, and sandals.  When fall started, I share my Ultimate Guide to Fall Outfits for a Pear Shape Body……..I detailed ten staple pieces that I loved for the season and I wanted to do the same for Spring Outfits now.  These ten pieces are all items I own in my Spring Wardrobe, and highly recommend for Spring and summer wear in those warmer months.  They're flattering, and fit a pear shaped body like a dream (always important, right?).

One of the things I think about the most when transitioning to a new season? Cost per use and versatility.  A switch of weather and clothing need is a perfect time to assess what you HAVE and what you need.  For me? I try to focus on staple pieces that make for easy outfit formulas.  Items that I use over and over again that can easily mix and match into perfect combination options for the season.  There are always fun spring trends, and then I also use classic pieces that I've owned for years. For each of these staples, I'm including a couple of simple spring outfit ideas that can be created with them.  Hopefully this will help you prepare for fun and fashionable warmer days!

I'm including the sizes I wear in each for easy reference………..

Ultimate Guide to Spring Outfits For a Pear Shape Body

Overalls (size medium): Overalls are one of the hardest things to find for a pear shape or anyone over a size 4.  Trust, I tried on 17 pairs before I wrote my post about the Best Overalls for Women with Curves.  The ones I found? I LOVE.  These light denim ones from Madewell fit like a total dream….and I even found a STEAL version from Old Navy (they keep selling out, but if you can snag a pair they're a similar fit and under $50)!

Looking for casual spring outfits? These flat sandals are PERFECT!

Flat Sandals:  These Birkenstock sandals will get an embarassingly large amount of use this summer.  I've owned my black patent leather pair for 3 years and wear them ALL spring and summer long.  They're comfortable and never go out of style.  This last summer? I added a couple pairs of platform Birkenstock sandals into the mix and they were great for a slightly more elevated vibe.

Shop these Sandals for Warmer Days:

Great Fitting Shorts (size 12): Great fitting shorts are practically impossible to find for a pear shaped body, but these? FIT LIKE A DREAM.  In fact, I wrote about them a ton in my ultimate guide to shorts for a pear shaped body last summer……and I'm just as obsessed with them now as I was then (and bonus, they come in a ton of cute new prints).

Shop the Shorts:

Looking for fun spring dresses? This one is PERFECTION!

Pastel Dress (size M): A floral dress or great pastel sundress is a spring MUST own.  From Easter brunch to bridal and baby showers, you'll get a ton of use out of a great fitting dress.   And this year? Cottage core and fun sleeves and feminine elements are a huge trent.  I shared my favorite Nap dresses as a must have recently, and let me tell you….they're worth every penny!  They look great with a pair of mules and cardigan in cooler weather at the beginning of the season or slides and a straw hat when you get into warmer days (they even have some fun gingham prints for a fun picnic vibe).

Shop this Dress:

Spring Outfits Must Own Pieces: This t shirt dress fits like a dream and is under $60!

The BEST T Shirt Dress (size medium): Ok, I know.  I included this t-shirt dress in my fall outfits staples too.  I'm not even ashamed to admit I own it in FOUR colors.  It comes in a lovely faded grey, blue and olive and I bought all three for spring outfits.  It fits a pear shaped body like a dream and is under $60.  You can pair it with ankle boots and a denim jacket or tan leather jacket in the cooler months then switch to sandals for a casual look or heels for the end of the season.

Shop the Dress:

Looking for a great basic tee? This is IT!

Simple Tee (size medium): A great basic tee is a staple for any spring outfits or spring vacations.  And this one? Is my favorite (I own it in a number of colors) and it's super high quality.  Worth every penny.  It also comes in a great size range (this is a total year round outfit piece that can be worn with mom jeans or white denim with ease).

Shop the Tee:

Spring outfit ideas? A great pair of jeans is the perfect foundational piece!

 Jeans : I know, I know.  I've talked about some of these jeans a LOT.  My two top pairs? These wider leg jeans from Kut from the Kloth and my Wit and Wisdom stretch jeans (perfect if you're on the hunt for skinny jeans). Yes, I've been talking about these for YEARS.  But, they're amazing and they're NOT too pricey.  They stretch well, and are great with sneakers and tees as the weather warms up….a perfect fitting pair of jeans is the foundation for an easy and fun new spring outfit.

Shop the Jeans:

Spring Outfits Must Own Pieces: This red cardigan is super flattering on a pear shaped body!Light Cardigan (size medium): I love a great cardigan for layering in Spring……and this red cardigan from Cabi Clothing? Fits like a dream and goes with EVERYTHING (plus who can resist that bell sleeve)…..great outfit guaranteed with a fun piece like this!

Easy Spring outfits? These are great ideas for casual spring looks!

 Sneakers: Every single time I share pictures that include these wedge sneakers, you guys ask about them.  I own them in both grey and white, and wear them ALL the time (they're great for spring style ideas with simple tee shirt dresses or short)!

Leggings: Remember when I wrote the Ultimate Guide to Black Leggings for a Pear Shaped Body?  If you didn't snag a great fitting pair of black leggings then, do it now.  They're perfect for layering under tunics and dresses as the weather warms up but isn't QUITE hot enough for bare legs.

The way I laughed out loud when I spotted this lit The way I laughed out loud when I spotted this little area during our day at Knott’s Berry Farm……. (teachers, you get it right?!?)I mean, HAD TO TAKE A PHOTO (or 20). This weekend was the start of Peanuts Celebration at Knott’s Berry Farm and we spent a day immersed in all things Snoopy.  From the rides in Camp Snoopy to the adorable new shows to the ACTUAL PIGS in Pigpen’s Pig Pen there was so much to do…..I’m so glad that Knott’s invited us to check it all out!Now, who is YOUR favorite Peanuts character? (Lydia’s is Sally, she’s actually playing her in a school play TODAY — the timing, right?) @knottsberryfarm #knottspeanutscelebration
✨ Happy 100th Disney!✨⠀ ⠀ 💜The people a ✨ Happy 100th Disney!✨⠀⠀💜The people are the magic.  Yesterday was filled with friends and food and fun and feet (sore ones after walking around from dawn to way past dusk)…….and as Lydia and I tucked ourselves into bed last night……I felt so much gratitude.  Our happy place has brought so much joy into our lives and so many people that enrich each moment.⠀⠀✨The Disney 100 Celebration will be happening ALL YEAR, and I feel like we still have so much to see and do.⠀⠀💜Favorite Moments and Experiences from our day one of Disney 100:⠀🚂riding Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railroad: I avoided ALLLLLL spoilers (there are some in this carousel btw), and had seen NONE of the attraction until we stepped into the queue…. it was absolutely adorable and I can’t WAIT to ride it again, plus when we exited the ride…..some of the team that created it were at the exit and seeing their smiles? ABSOLUTE DISNEY MAGIC.⠀🌅seeing the sun rise over the castle bright and early⠀💕running into friends every 5 minutes, it felt like a giant reunion⠀👗characters in their costumes, not going to lie….we didn’t wait in lines for them….they were length, but we gave a wave as we walked by and they looked stunning⠀⠀✨When is your next Disney trip???
🏰Dreaming of Dancing in Front of the Castle for 🏰Dreaming of Dancing in Front of the Castle for Spring Break?🏰⠀⠀📷A few castle photo tips:⠀1️⃣side, not center……both sides of the castle have lovely little spots that provide a great view of the castle and moat, but avoid the crowd (plus you can get some nice flattering light into the mid morning or in the late afternoon)⠀2️⃣want to be closer to the front? Sit on the back of the benches built into the moat entrance, you’ll be a bit elevated, it gives a great angle and a better view of the castle herself ⠀3️⃣if you REALLY want that walking into the castle shot…..this is something you can do during early entry time if you are staying on property ⠀⠀🧳Now, let’s talk Spring Break tips in collaboration with @themeparkfrog :⠀🚨This is IT.  Red alert.  If you’re hoping to visit the Happiest Place on Earth for Spring Break….BOOK IT NOW.  Spring Break is around the corner, and the more you plan, the happier you’ll be (trust me).⠀⠀To do (in order):⠀1️⃣book your hotel, theme park tickets and rental car: for the best deal, you can do this as a bundle with Undercover Tourist (you’ll save a TON this way….I’m sharing more in stories)⠀2️⃣once you have your trip dates….book dining.  At Disneyland you can book 60 days in advance (which means, NOW and coming up very soon for Spring Break).⠀3️⃣ If you want to do something special like the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, you can ALSO book that 60 days in advance.⠀⠀✨So, are you ready? Blue skies, sunshine, and Disney Magic guaranteed. What are YOUR spring break plans?
