Spring is in the air, and a new, sunny season is finally arriving. Now that warmer temperatures are rounding the corner, it's time to swap heavy winter clothing for lighter and brighter essentials to celebrate the blooming season.

And if you’re a woman over 50 looking for a new spring wardrobe, you don't need to resign yourself to pastels and basics. While they’re perennial staples (no pun intended), bolder colors and designs have graced spring runways and begun showing up in stores. This season, the brighter, the better — and there are countless fun, flattering styles to give you the spring glow-up you’ve been looking for.

You’ll see some tried-and-true classics this season, and they’re taken to the next level with trendy details or coordinating accessories.

Calvin Klein bucket bag

Spring is the perfect time to overhaul your seasonal accessories, starting with handbags. Cool purple shades, as seen in this colorblocked Calvin Klein bucket bag, are embraced as contemporary neutrals. As far as seasonal jewelry is concerned, pearls are once again on-point, particularly with classic strands, oversized studs, and faux pearls in trending colors. Gold tone is the dominating finish of the season, and it's seen everywhere from jewelry to sunglasses to handbag hardware.
