Spring is finally here! That means itโs time to ditch the heavy woolens, embrace breezy outfits, and give your self-care routine a little seasonal glow-up. A smooth transition from winter to spring isn’t just about swapping out clothes; itโs about feeling refreshed inside and out. Hereโs your easy guide to stepping into the new season with style and wellness in check!
Storing away the winter wear is a big task.Before you pack away your cozy knits and heavy jackets, give them a proper clean. Leftover dirt and moisture can lead to fabric damage and unpleasant odors, which is the last thing you want when you take them out next winter! Delicate materials like cashmere and silk need extra TLCโprofessional dry cleaning keeps them soft and good as new. If youโve got coats or sweaters with stubborn stains, nowโs the time to deal with them rather than letting them sit and settle in till the next winter. When storing, opt for breathable cotton bags instead of plastic which can trap moisture and encourage mold. I sometimes use old pillow covers or dupattas toย wrap them.
Pro-Tip:Toss in some cedarwood blocks or lavender,dried Basil leaves or Neem leaves in cloth sachets to keep moths away naturally.
2. Welcome Spring with Wrinkle-Free, Breezy Outfits
Warmer weather calls for lightweight fabrics and flowy silhouettesโgoodbye heavy layers, hello comfort! But letโs be honest, nothing kills the joy of pulling out your favorite spring dress only to find it covered in wrinkles. A good steam press can do wonders, reviving your clothes while also eliminating bacteria. Investing in a handheld steamer is a great idea if you want to keep your outfits crisp all season long. This is also the perfect time to reassess your wardrobeโare there pieces you no longer wear? Consider donating them to free up space for fresh additions.You can also take out old summer clothes and repurpose them to a more fashionable style.

Springtime skin needs a hydration boost! The change in weather can leave your skin feeling confusedโsometimes dry, sometimes oily, and everything in between. Swap heavy winter creams for lightweight moisturizers and serums packed with hydration, like hyaluronic acid and aloe vera. Sun exposure also increases as the days get longer, so never skip sunscreen, even if youโre just stepping out for errands. A gentle exfoliation routine helps slough off winter dryness, leaving you with soft, radiant skin. And if youโre feeling extra indulgent, treat yourself to a refreshing face mask once a week! TryNat Habitโs All-Day Face Malai, packed with fresh natural ingredients, to keep your skin soft and happy.
4. Fuel Your Body with the Right Nutrition
Your body needs a little seasonal reset too! After months of indulging in warm, hearty meals, itโs time to bring in light and fresh, nutrient-packed foods. Add more seasonal fruits and greens to your mealsโthink berries, citrus, cucumbers, and spinach. These not only taste great but also hydrate your body naturally. Supplements can also help; Vitamin C for immunity, omega-3s for glowing skin, and collagen for healthy hair can give you a much-needed boost. If youโve been feeling sluggish, Kapivaโs Pure Ashwagandha Gold can help with stress, stamina, and overall wellness.
Also, stay hydrated!Drinking plenty of water and herbal teas ( I like Jasmine, Chamomile and Rose/Hibiscus) will keep you feeling fresh and energized all day.
Pro tip: Infuse your water with lemon, mint, or berries for a fun twist!
With longer daylight hours and pleasant weather, spring is the perfect excuse to get active. Shake off the winter slump and move your body in ways that feel good! Whether itโs a morning jog, yoga in the park, or an outdoor strength session, regular exercise boosts circulation, lifts your mood, and keeps your body energized. If youโve been stuck in a workout rut, try something newโmaybe a dance class or a hiking trail youโve never explored before. The key is to enjoy it, so it never feels like a chore. Movement doesnโt always have to mean intense workoutsโeven a 30-minute walk in the sunshine can do wonders for your body and mind!
Spring is all about new beginnings! A little effort in your wardrobe, skincare, and self-care can make a world of difference. So, say goodbye to winter blues and hello to a fresh, vibrant season. Whatโs your favorite way to welcome spring? Let us know in the comments!
Your tips for embracing spring are spot-on! I especially loved the idea of using cedarwood blocks or lavender sachets to keep moths away naturallyโdefinitely trying that when storing my winter clothes.

A simple yet refreshing twist I can’t wait to incorporate. Thanks for these practical and rejuvenating suggestions!
Loved this refreshing take on welcoming spring! In Bangalore, we donโt have to pack away heavy woolens, but a wardrobe and skincare refresh is always a great idea. Definitely trying the infused water and herbal tea tips for a seasonal glow-up!
I can’t get enough of walks. But I’d like to try the Ashwangandha gold. I do need the stamina, as my muscles have become slack. The lighter serums also I need. Overall, I love putting dry sachets in my clothes, they smell heavenly.
You have shared the whole enchilada for welcoming spring, Preeti. In the north you have this arduous task of packing up woollens, whereas here in the south, we just move from dark to lighter coloured clothing. Summer has started since Feb itself. As I always say..we have only two seasons in Vijayawada-Summer and More Summer ๐ Now even in Hyderabad summer has set in early.
Love all the tips! I am pretty bad at maintaining a skin care routine so thanks for providing some tips there! Definitely going to try them. Keeping dry basil leaves or neem leaves with winter clothes is another brilliant idea that I am going to use. And yes no more excuses for workout as the winter chill subsides. So hoping to stay active and fit. Thanks for the reminders!
