Spring fashion

It’s warming up in Tazewell County, which means it’s almost time to trade in your heavy winter knits for some lighter, brighter fits as we get ready for the sunny days ahead! 

If you’ve been here, you know there’s nothing quite like spring in Tazewell County. In our corner of Appalachia, spring is a dynamic season, with cooler temperatures in the mornings before warming up mid-day. It’s only suitable for you to have a wardrobe that fits all your springtime needs, including lightweight layers and a variety of sleeve lengths.

As we prepare to spring forward into the new season, we’re rounding up some of our favorite items to hit the shelves of local fashion retailers. Check them out below!

Keeping it cool and comfortable

At the Clothing Palette and More in Tazewell, you’ll find a variety of spring essentials from more than 50 local vendors and artisans. This season, we’re seeing (and loving!) lots of classic pastels, flowy knee-length dresses, and sheer, professional tops you can dress up or down depending on the occasion. 

A spotted white peasant top and lace off-white balloon-sleeve top are an absolute must for any neutral pairing, and if you’re looking for something vibrant, check out these gorgeous items, including: a mauve bell-sleeve top with velvet leopard print sleeves, or this warm, whimsical tie-dye sweatshirt for windier days. 

P.S. If you want a fresh, spring scent to accompany your space, check out these Hometown candles at Clothing Palette and More with fragrances inspired by the city of Tazewell, Virginia! 

Visit the Clothing Palette and More at 273 Main St., Tazewell, Virginia. 

Lightweight layers and skirts

For rainy or chilly days, you’ll need some lightweight layers. Head to Amazing Grace Boutique in Pounding Mill for the Falling For You Cardigan in ashe mocha and olive colors. For formal events, they offer a variety of skirts, including this light pink/peach pencil skirt. If you’re in the market for sleeveless tanks, this Adorable Adornments lace hemline tank (in ash or cream) is simply stunning with white denim. 

Amazing Grace Boutique is located at 12584 Governor G. C. Peery Hwy, Pounding Mill, Virginia

Fun and floral

The team at The Classy Closet in Richlands is ready for spring. Over the last few weeks, they’ve been sharing incoming stock, like this red and pink floral cinched sleeve dress and mustard and green floral tunic — both possess vibrancy we love about this season’s fashion. Stick a felt hat and pair of ankle booties on and you’re set! If you’re into less colorful florals, we love this combination of a black dress over a thin floral long-sleeve top. It’s simply gorgeous! These chunky knit cardigans are also perfect for pairing with any outfit and come in three colors: pink, red, and brown.
