1. White Jeans
Spring isn’t complete without the perfect white jeans to complement your flirty spring tops! Regular readers know I adore Everlane’s white jeans. I own both the straight-leg (original cheeky) and skinny-leg (authentic stretch high-rise skinny) styles, and I can’t pick a favorite!
2. Short Sleeve Sweater
Spring’s arrived and the temperature’s rising! It’s the perfect time to add a short-sleeve sweater to your wardrobe. This top is like a comfy tee, but with a touch more weight – ideal for those cool spring evenings. Layer it under a jean jacket for a stylish and breezy spring outfit. Check out Everlane’s selection for some great inspiration!
3. Denim Jacket
There’s a reason the jean jacket is a classic. It’s the ideal lightweight layer for spring, adding a touch of cool to any dress or top. Plus, it comes in a wide variety of styles to suit your taste!
I personally love the versatility of having two different jean jackets in my wardrobe. My Madewell jacket offers a more fitted silhouette, perfect for creating a defined look. For a relaxed vibe, I reach for my Anine Bing denim jacket. Both options are stylish and perfect for spring!
4. White Sneakers
Spring is calling for fresh white kicks! I recently snagged a pair of Frye’s White Ivy sneakers and I’m obsessed. They’re seriously comfortable (huge win!) and surprisingly versatile. These sneaks have become my go-to for almost every outfit. They’re the perfect way to add a crisp, clean touch to your spring style.
5. Utility Jacket
Step aside denim, there’s a new sheriff in town! A green utility jacket is the ultimate spring wardrobe essential (besides the classic jean jacket, of course). I’m obsessed with mine (an Anine Bing army jacket, no less!), and I wear it all the time. It’s so versatile – throw it on over a tee and shorts for a casual look, or layer it over a breezy midi dress for a touch of cool. This jacket is a true workhorse and creates the perfect spring outfit every time.
6. Midi Dress
When I have no idea what to wear and am tired of shorts, the first thing I do during spring is reach for a midi dress! I love the look of a casual midi dress paired with white sneakers. It’s breezy, playful, and the perfect outfit to wear all day into the evening, layered with a jean jacket! Spring midi dresses are the most stylish time saver.
7. Mules
Mules are the perfect footwear for spring! They’re incredibly easy to slip on and off, making them ideal for busy mornings on the go. Plus, ditch the socks and enjoy the warm weather in comfort.
8. Layering / Striped Tee
Spring wardrobe missing a key piece? This camel and white striped tee is your layering hero! Throw it on under jackets, sweaters, or wear it solo – it’s so versatile, you can pair it with anything.
9. Ripped Jeans
Spring is here, and it’s time to lighten up your denim! Ripped jeans are a perfect way to add a touch of edge to your springtime look.They come in a variety of washes and styles, so you can find the perfect pair to express your personality.
10. Feminine Sweatshirt
Calling all cozy chicks! Spring days can be deceiving, so a light layer is a must-have. This season, elevate your sweatshirt game with a feminine touch. Think puff sleeves, delicate details, or a flattering cut. It’ll add effortless style to your spring wardrobe and keep you comfortable on those cooler nights.
