It may seem as if spring is far, far away, but before you know it the warm weather will be here. Yes, right now it’s hard to imagine a day without layering, but soon you’ll be tossing your turtlenecks aside for the satin tops and slip dresses. While you *could* wait to scoop up new styles for the season, after you take one peek at Aritzia's spring 2019 arrivals, you're likely going to have trouble resisting the urge to shop.

The go-to retailer for elevated essentials has released the first of its spring collection styles, and it won't take you long to find fresh styles to add to your wardrobe. And if this initial selection isn't enough, there's even more to come. For the rest of February, Aritzia will be dropping new pieces from the spring collection each week on both Monday and Wednesday — so mark your calendar now.

All it takes is one scroll through the new arrivals to quickly notice that Aritzia, like other retailers, is betting big on the color yellow. Within the latest offerings are pieces ranging from buttery soft hues to bold sunflower shades. Bring the cheery color into your closet with a work-to-weekend structured blazer for $228. Or, go more femme with a golden ruffled-edge dress, $138. You can throw on this satin seasonless staple over a thin white turtleneck now, and wear it solo with your favorite sandals when the flowers start to bloom.

Another transitional piece to pick up now is a lightweight cardigan. You'll find a few different shapes in the mix, but the Babaton Peter Cardigan, $98, is one you should consider adding to your bag ASAP. The cardi's poppy pink color is a shade you're going to see a lot of this spring. Pair the knit with the honey brown Lincoln Pant to breathe new life into your office attire.

As for prints? The retailer is making a play for polka dots. The charming black and white pattern is available in several sweet silhouettes, including a floaty button-front dress for $120. You'll be happy to have this easy style to wear for patio brunches with friends and sunny weekends wandering the markets.
