After what felt like the longest winter outside of Westeros, spring is finally here! Sort of. Even if the weather isn’t fully cooperating, that’s no reason to still be hiding under your winter layers.

Here are some ways to brighten up your look with every shade of pink while adding some cute seasonal details to your look without breaking the bank.

Refresh your face: All that indoor heating left you feeling parched? Rael’s new Youth Island Sheet Mask with Collagen is an anti-aging mask infused with hydrolyzed collagen and amino acids. Collagen and amino acids restore elasticity, smoothing fine lines & wrinkles. It’s a nice way to pamper your skin after too much time spent bundled up.

A cute boot: Not ready to give up on your boots just yet? Frye Ray Harness Back Zip come in a muted mauve pink that’s the perfect neutral for everything from dark wash jeans to fluttery spring skirts.

Skirting the issue: Speaking of skirts, can we all collectively swoon at the cuteness of this one? Boden’s Victoria Embroidered Skirt is fully lined and comes in a super-flattering A-line style, and hides a multitude of sins, even if you packed on a few extra pounds while hibernating this winter.

A touch of (cream) blush: Jane Iredale In Touch Cream Blush in Clarity: comes in stick form so it’s incredibly easy to apply. Dot on the balls of your cheeks or blend with a sponge. Perfect to keep in your desk when the overhead office lighting has you looking more cadaverous than in-control.

Sweet nails: Smith & Cult Nail Lacquer—Pillow Pie: Note to Queen Elizabeth II and Duchess Kate, if you’re looking for a subtle spring mani update, this one’s for you. (Here’s the real reason Kate never wears colorful nail polish.) This richly pigmented, chip-resistant formula means manicures last longer. Even better, the eight-free formula means it’s free of a slew of potentially harmful ingredients. (Giving this one an A++ for being professional, ladylike and absolutely gorgeous. Get it at Dermstore).

Top it off: Remember when we were little and everyone had things like spring coats? If you splurge on only one thing this season, may I suggest a new warm spring coat? The newest styles are more like loosely constructed sweaters and tend to flatter almost every form. I’m madly in love with my new pink herringbone hooded spring coat from Social Eras. I can’t remember receiving this many compliments on a single garment. (And don’t panic if you see that the largest size is large, they are cut beautifully and generously so you can probably find one that fits.)

Pink hair, don’t care: Actress Maisie Williams, (Arya on Game of Thrones) has been sporting a gorgeous lilac/pink hair color. If you’re wondering if pink hair is still a thing, the answer is definitely yes. Salon pro haircare brand KEVIN.MURPHY’s Global Design Director Kate Reid offered some insights on pink hair. “Pastels have been getting bigger and bigger every year.” Right now “the question is more about which shade of pink rather than pink as a whole. Rose pink is our go-to for 2019 and to complete the SweetHeart look (which she created for Valentine’s Day).

Some pink hair tips from Reid:

• Rose pink works with both warm and cool skin tones and actually sits quite neutral.

• On cooler skin tones, work with lighter pastel rose shades or cooler dusty pinks and roses.

• Warm skin types should ask for dense roses, antique rose to rose golds to really make the skin glow.
