Paper Crown by Lauren Conrad

I LOVE Lauren Conrad's Paper Crown collection!

“We wanted to the collection to look very clean and fresh–those are the pieces I gravitate towards. When I was designing [the collection] I wanted to do pieces that could be worn lots of different ways–I think it’s nice to invest in pieces you can wear throughout a few seasons. It’s modern but not overly trendy. I wanted an overall romance feel to the line, balanced out with a couple tailored pieces for a slight menswear feel and the leather pieces to balance out the chiffons.” 
- Lauren Conrad

Paper Crown features on-trend basics like leather 
shorts, silk blouses in blush tones, slouchy blazers, 
tight cocktail dresses, tiered ruffled maxi dresses, 
and short, flouncy, belted dresses.

Must-Have for Spring

I'm excited for spring and summer!
Don't be afraid to mix patterns such as stripes, graphic tees/tanks, and polka dots.
When it comes to colors, go bold and bright such as coral or orange.
Or go for a romantic look with soft pastel colors such as lavender, pink, or cream.
Lastly, florals are a must!
