Spring is finally on its way, and I personally cannot wait for warmer weather and the outfits it will bring. Not only does the season motivate me to try out more playful styles, but thanks to the unpredictable temperature and constant precipitation, it’s also such a fun time to experiment with layering. Of course, if you view unexpected forecasts as a source of stress rather than excitement, getting dressed in the morning can easily become a conundrum. But have no fear: As always, our community is coming in hot this spring with a myriad of fire looks to inspire your outfits for spring. From monochrome layers to dress-and-tights combinations, here are six ideas to kick-start your foray into warmer weather.
Create a Saturday-Ready Look in a Dress-and-Top Combination
A little black number layered over a turtleneck is a perfect look for those spring days that are still a bit chilly. Pair them with vintage sunglasses and white sneakers and you’ve got a simple but put-together weekend ensemble.

Weatherproof a Dress with Booties and Tights
Hop on the polka-dot trend with a simple shirtdress. Add tights and a pair of white booties for a warmer take on this springy piece.

Show Your Laid-Back Side in a Canadian Tuxedo
Throw an oversize denim jacket over any tee and black skinny jeans for a layered look that’s ready for class. A pair of classic sneakers is a comfy addition that will keep your toes protected in case of any unexpected rain.

Embrace Playful Winter Details for a Cheerful New Vibe
To add a little fun to an otherwise neutral look, pair it with a bright accessory like an electric blue beanie. The playful polka-dot print of the blazer paired and the eye-catching hue of the hat bring a lighthearted element to the look that takes it from winter to spring.

Layer Sunny Hues Together for a Warm Spring Look
Try out a bright monochrome combination with a coordinating sweater over a turtleneck, and stick to crisp black and white everywhere else to contrast against the summery hues.

Mix Polished Neutrals with Vivid Casuals for an Unexpected Pairing
For a seriously bold look, pair professional loafers and trousers with a casual piece like this highlighter-orange tee. Worn over a blue long-sleeve top, it produces an unexpected pairing of warm-weather hues that proves you’re ready for spring.
