The year is just flying by, and I’m still finding it hard to believe that we’re already half way through spring. Although we had some one-off chilly days that felt like winter, I could tell that things were starting to warm up. I was able to experiment more with warm weather pieces and began adding a ton of new spring styles to my wardrobe. If you need a little refresher and style inspiration for the month ahead, I thought I’d round up some of my favorite outfits from last month.
Grayson White Linen Shirt (sold out, similar here and here) | Levi’s White Denim (wearing a 24 – on sale now!) | Hermes Belt | Christian Louboutin White Heels (similar here, better for budget here) | Similar Janessa Leone Hat (better for budget here) | Bottega Veneta Bag
1. Spring Favorites
An all-white outfit is the best way to welcome the warmth of spring and summer. I always love adding brown accent pieces to break up the crisp look.
Anine Bing Blazer (on sale now) | Forever 21 Crop Top | Agolde 90s Denim (on sale now) | Alexandre Birman Sandals (on sale now, also here) | Balenciaga Hat | Botteva Veneta Sunglasses | Bottega Veneta The Pouch Bag
2. Casual Date Night
I’ve really been into the loose denim trend. The easiest way to pull it off is to add some heels for height and a crop top to balance out the relaxed bottoms.
White Button Down Shirt | Superdown Faux Leather Skirt (also love this one) | LAGOS Stainless Steel Link Band for Apple Watch | LAGOS Blue Caviar Diamond Link Bracelet | LAGOS Caviar Spark Diamond Pendant Necklace | LAGOS Caviar Spark Diamond Earrings | LAGOS Caviar Spark Diamond Bracelet | Givenchy Antigona Handbag | Similar Sunglasses | Christian Louboutin Pumps
3. Business Casual
I’ll never get tired of a white button-down shirt. The styling options are truly endless. I love tying mine at the waist and pairing it with skirts for a chic ensemble.

4. Neutral Lover
Here’s another variation of a monochromatic white look that I can wear on repeat. The cardigan above is actually from Walmart and looks way more luxe than it costs.

5. Favorite Denim Shorts
Denim shorts are a spring and summer essential. Although I typically dress them down, they’re surprisingly easy to dress up too. Just add a blazer and some heels for a chic look.

6. Effortless Dressing
These Abercrombie mom shorts are perfect for hot days, whether you’re off on a weekend getaway or running errands. Don’t forget to minimalist slides for an effortless look.

7. Weekend Fit
Matching loungewear sets are still as trendy as ever. If you’re looking for an affordable set, this one from Abercrombie is fail proof. It’s comfortable, on trend, and stylish.

8. Spring Basics
Spring is the season for easy dresses and heels that go from day to night. This outfit embodies all of that and more. The square toe slides is one of the best wardrobe upgrades you’ll make. I love how chic they also look with denim.
Tularosa Sweater (on sale now!) | NBD Camel Leather Skirt (sold out, also love this one) | Fendi Sunshine Shopper (also here) | Bottega Veneta Sunglasses
9. Camel Tones
Tonal dressing is something I’ll never get tired of. It’s just not luxe and sophisticated looking, but everything goes together, making getting dressed a breeze.

10. Tie Hem Pants
I’ve been keeping an eye out on the tie-hem pants trend for a while and immediately fell in love with this pair as soon as I saw it. The tie-waist detail and full-length silhouette are all petite-friendly – and so chic.
