A SEASONAL CLASSIC

It might feel a bit on the nose, but florals are timeless for a reason. This colorful take on a classic is the quickest way to put some spring in your wardrobe's step. Balance the print with a simple white tee, or go full Copenhagen fashion girl and clash with a patterned maxi skirt (gingham the print to watch) and statement socks.

PRETTY IN PASTEL

From buttermilk yellow to pistachio, pastels are on the menu this season. If you're stumped on styling these tasty tones, a lightweight jacket is the best way to add it into your wardrobe. This boxy, quilted shacket has a structured fit that feels casual enough for weekend adventures but elevated enough for your 9-5. Tip: try layering under a long-tailored coat or trench for a subtle pop of color. Yum.

ALL-OUT PRINTS

Animal print is always trending – it's basically a neutral at this point – but fashion is pivoting from the more-obvious leopard prints to zebra, cow print and even deer. This monochromatic number pairs perfectly with just about anything, from denim shorts and a cropped tank to a bright maxi dress and ballet flats, but we love it styled with a color-drenched look.

100% COCOA

Chocolate brown has been dominating the trend cycle, so it makes sense to invest in spring layers in the color of the season. This funnel-neck quilted jacket has a little bit of barn about it, another key style for this season. Throw over leggings and boots while getting your steps in.

Spring dressing is the ultimate guessing game. If you’re tired of cozying up to the weather app, it’s worth having a quilted jacket on standby. Warm but not bulky, this contrast-lined version is a little extra insurance for when you need it most. Throw over a simple jeans-and-tee combo, and you’re good to go.
