How To Wear Your Spring Pieces Now

Hero Piece: The Boho Maxi

Style your go-to bohemian maxi dress with a chunky, oversized sweater and suede over-the-knee boots for warmth. Finish with statement sunnies and a sleek saddle bag.

Hero Piece: The Pleated Skirt

Wear spring's trendy pleated midi skirt now with tights and pointed-toe booties. A lace-up henley and trench coat are the finishing touches on a pragmatic yet stylish cold-weather look.

Hero Piece: The Slip Dress

Layer an of-the-moment slip dress over a tissue-thin long-sleeved shirt. Top with a blanket-style cardigan and add a ribbed beanie and sleek sneakers for a minimalist, Scandi-cool outcome.

Hero Piece: The One-Shoulder Top

Get more mileage out of a one-shoulder top by wearing it with a basic long-sleeved bodysuit underneath. Keep the rest of the outfit sleek and straightforward by finishing with tonal leather trousers, classic pumps and refined earrings.

Hero Piece: The Platform Sandals

The socks-with-sandals look isn't for everyone, but if you're up for the challenge, just make sure to keep the color combo neutral and in a similar hue so the effect isn't jarring. Team with spring's ubiquitous uneven hem jeans, a crewneck knit, kimono jacket and simple choker for a fashion girl-approved ensemble.
