We've reached the time of year in which it's still cold out there but many of us have mentally moved on to spring. For me, that means my shopping carts are full of dresses, sandals, and pretty spring colors. Retailers across the internet are making it easy to transition our wardrobes to spring, as the winter inventory has been cleared out and newness is being added on a daily basis—especially at Zara, Shopbop, and Reformation, the three retailers I'm focusing on for this month's edition of 42 Things.
As you know, one of the hardest things about shopping is narrowing it down. Online shopping has made decision-making infinitely harder than it used to be when all shopping was done IRL, but yours truly is at your service. I selected 14 standout pieces from each retailer that I can't stop thinking about and couldn't not share. Scroll on to shop them all before the weather actually warms up.
Zara
Run—don't walk—to order this dress. It's very cute on.
If you haven't gotten a pair of silver shoes yet, what are you waiting for?
The seam details make this one so unique.
Do as the model does and wear this as a dress.
Our edit team has been drooling over this skirt.
This is one of the coolest takes I've seen on the sequins trend.
This color is about to be everywhere.
The green accents are fun.
Oddly enough, red tights are trending.
Studded accessories are a rising trend, and this pair happens to be on sale.
I love how they styled this.
FYI: Everyone is buying tweed jackets right now.
Ridiculously chic.
If you're tired of baggy pants, order these.
Shopbop
Nineties minimalism at its finest.
I'm sure you'll wear these elegant slingbacks constantly.
After spring 2022's miniskirt explosion, full midi skirts are making a comeback.
How does one not have fun when wearing this top?
Do yourself a favor and invest in a drop-waist dress.
I repeat: Metallic shoes are very in right now.
The shape of these feels fresh.
These are perfect.
An easy, affordable way to try the Westerncore trend.
Believe it or not, peplums are back.
Don't sleep on the silver trend.
Now all you need to do is book a vacation.
Teardrop earrings are giving hoops a run for their money.
There was evidence at NYFW that fishnets are coming back.
Reformation
I like what's happening here.
This top sold out quickly, so Ref was wise to create it in more prints.
This dress is basically perfect.
This print is dreamy.
This print is too good not to include twice.
Everything's better with a bow.
This color is surprisingly versatile.
Love a good denim dress.
They're not regular wedges—they're cool wedges.
For what it's worth, this is my favorite cargo skirt on the internet.
This gorgeous top comes in black too.
White-shoe season is coming.
Studs are a new microtrend to have on your radar (thanks to Khaite).
These will sell out soon. You've been warned.
