1. A lightweight rain jacket with a cinched waist for rainy days spent at the farmers market or commuting home from work during a romantic summer thunderstorm. 🌧
2. A tulle ruffle-shoulder bodysuit that looks WAY more expensive than it actually is. Your outdoor brunch schedule is back in full swing this year (finally) and this is definitely the kind of top you'll be wanting to show up in.
3. A tie-front dress if you wanna look *HOT* while staying nice and ~COOL~ this spring and summer. 🥵
4. A slouchy cardigan that's begging to be paired with everything from high-rise skirts and denim to long, flowy dresses. (And honestly, it'll also be great with yoga pants for lounging on the couch). Swoooooooon. 😍
5. A stretchy faux-wrap tee that you can wear a million different ways and pair with a million different things. Which means you could literally pick bottoms with your eyes closed and be guaranteed to look like a million bucks. 🤑
6. A halter-neck crop top that takes your standard tank and cranks it up a few notches with its cute square neckline, thicker fabric, and contoured fit. This also means it makes the ultimate versatile base layer, regardless of the weather. Think high-rise denim, joggers, flowy skirts, big zip-up hoodies...
7. A cozy cardigan because let's remember — spring can be FRIGID!! It'll also be a nice over-the-shoulder situation when you're out to dinner this summer and the wind is just a tad too chilly.
8. A T-shirt dress that can't WAIT for you to dress up and accessorize. It's lightweight enough to wear year-round (yes, even in the dead of summer) but can easily be paired with tights, a sweater, or a denim jacket for added warmth during unpredictable spring days.
9. A two-piece cuffed sweatshirt and shorts set that's so stinkin' cute on its own for lounging. BUT, that top?! Aka your new go-to cozy sweater that sacrifices nothing in the way of style, and can be worn a million diff ways.
10. An oversized houndstooth knitted sweater vest to keep you looking 💯 from business meetings to brunch and back again. Whether you layer it over a white T-shirt, white dress shirt, or even a turtleneck on chillier days, this thing is MAJOR.
11. And a cropped button-down to pair with your new sweater vest (without worrying about tucking or bunching!) OR to just rock on its own with your fav pair of pants.
12. A pair of cow-print pants because cow print is the MOMENT, people!! And yes, the TikTok-famous middle schooler in your life probably thinks so, too — and that is the POINT!! Major cool points for you. 🐄
13. A pair of bike shorts that truly have it all: pockets and a high-rise waist! You can wear them during those pre-summer days as a base layer to help prevent chafing AND sport them all on their own once things are truly cooking outside. 🥵
14. A sleeveless shoulder pad top you can count on to make you look a million times more sophisticated than you might actually feel. On chilly days, you can pair with a cardigan or a light jacket, but on warmer ones — put those shoulder pads on DISPLAY in all their '90s glory.
15. A pleated midi skirt that comes with so many styling possibilities, I couldn't possibly list them all here. From your graphic tees tucked in with a nice belt to a warm, cozy sweater up top, this is the definition of versatility, my friend. Options = endless.
16. A pair of baggy linen overalls you can layer up in all kinds of ways — thermals, turtlenecks, T-shirts... No matter what you pair 'em with, they'll still be just as cute!
17. A pair of Levi's skinny jeans because you feel like you haven't purchased new denim in over a year?? Which might be the case?? This light wash pair is sure to become a versatile and vital piece in your wardrobe — do I really need to explain why? Just LOOK at that fit!
18. A maxi shirt dress that can be worn (deep inhale, here we go 🙆♂️🙆♂️) buttoned up as its own lightweight dream, OR unbuttoned over the outfit you've been wearing on repeat to change things up a little. It's practically oozing chicness!
19. A pair of knit lounge pants for walking to the corner coffee shop half asleep on chilly Saturday mornings. They'll also come in handy for all those camping trips you have planned this summer!
20. A puff-sleeve pastel maxi dress that yes, is 10,000% giving Bridgerton vibes and is 10,000% appropriate for any event you find yourself attending this spring or summer — including falling in love with a prince.
21. Or a halter sundress that you'll be reaching for again and again, May through September — no matter what's on your agenda.
22. A pair of wide-leg pants that are ready to be paired with just about everything — from cropped tops to blouses to sweaters.
23. A pair of jogger pants that are cool, loose, and oh-so-stylish. You can rock with a tank top, or bundle up with layers upon layers — either way, you'll look just as effortlessly cool.
24. A button-down top that'll just as easily have you looking fab on Zoom calls as it will out to drinks with friends. Fingers crossed your rooftop bar of choice opens soon!!
25. A roomy oversized denim jacket you can quite literally throw on over all of your spring and summer looks to add a little bit of warmth and a whole lot of STYLE.
26. A cropped hoodie that's made of recyclable micro fleece, because you neeeeeed a hood on your sweatshirts. It's all part of your incognito personality. Regardless, this'll serve you well not just for spring, not just for summer, but allllll year long.
27. A chic patterned button-down tunic top that's lightweight but still has long sleeves that you can unroll at your leisure. Going back to the office this time of year, you never know what level of icebox the A/C is gonna have ~up its sleeve.~ 🥶
28. And, a casual half-zip pullover that's perfect for blustery May days, summer bonfires, and late nights spent on the beach.
