Flirty Details

If you're going for a flirty feel, look no further than this cheery getup. For starters, this skirt is the perfect base piece. "Not only does it have the pretty ruffles at the bottom, but the vertical striped pattern will elongate your legs," explains Karla. Another noteworthy feminine detail: the tie on the denim shirt, which will just so happen to casually accentuate your waistline.

Vibrant Colors 

"Wearing bright colors, which we always see on the carpet, is another fun way show off your personal style," mentions Karla. The pro's pick for spring? A monochromatic fuchsia suit. To balance out the look, try layering a neutral patterned shirt underneath. The real expert move will come in when you incorporate a second bold color, like these royal blue sandals, that'll add just the right amount of contrast.

Bold Accessories 

Statement accessories are the easiest way to give your ensemble some character. "The trick is to stick to a neutral outfit, like this black and white look, and accessorize boldly from there," advises Karla. The expert also suggests streamlining the look by coordinating the color of your bag and shoes, and then mixing it up with a different multi-color scarf. "The fact that it doesn't match is the best part—it will give your outfit a fun vibe," she adds.

Ready or not world, here you come.
