As a fashion editor, I've become the shopping ChatGPT of my friend group. Whenever someone has a big event or is on the hunt for a niche item, it's not long before I receive an SOS text. I happily fulfill recommendation requests about everything from wedding guest dresses to investment purchases. Shopping is part of my job, after all, and I'm always thrilled to share my findings. So when one of my friends asked me what she should be adding to her closet for spring 2025, I was all ears.
There are so many fresh trends bubbling up this season I almost didn't know where to begin. Trends from butter yellow to powder pink, hourglass shapes to lace details, and mixed textures to sheer elements are poised to be impactful in the coming months. Since there are too many stunning trends to choose from, I decided to send her a ton of great shopping picks that touch on each so she can choose what speaks to her. After much curating, I landed on 34 items I think are key buys for spring. Below are the best spring items from my shopping list, from east-west bags to full skirts and statement belts.
