7 Stylish Looks That Make Spring Outfit Planning So Easy
When it comes to assembling outfits at the start of any new season, if you're anything like us, you'll already have a handful of tried-and-tested solutions—looks that have served you for years—that you'll immediately rely upon. Floral midi dresses worn with chunky flat boots and Breton-stripe jumpers paired with straight-leg jeans are just two such ensembles that come to mind, which we love for their ease and reliability. However, now that we're in the full swing of spring, we've decided to take a closer look at the fresh ways fashion people are assembling their 'fits for 2023.
Trends will always have an impact on the way we dress, and we're certainly seeing the influence of the spring/summer 2023 collections come into play right now. For the most part, palettes have become brighter, hemlines have been stretched to maxi proportions, and even trusty blue jeans have received an update.
Whether you're looking for ways to make your existing wardrobe feel refreshed for the season ahead or you fancy treating yourself to a new investment that'll bring your looks bang up to date, scroll on to see seven spring 2023 outfit trends and pairings that encapsulate the current aesthetic.
1. WHITE BLOUSE + LOOSE-FIT DENIM
Style Notes: White blouses and jeans are as intrinsic to spring as daffodils and chicks, but for 2023, turn up the volume with a relaxed-fit blouse in cheesecloth or cotton and loose jeans.

2. CARDIGAN + MINISKIRT
Style Notes: Prim cardigans and jackets are having a moment right now. Counteract their "posh" aesthetic with an on-trend miniskirt.

3. MAXI DRESS + SLINGBACKS
Style Notes: Maxi dresses were all over the spring/summer 2023 runways, so it's little wonder we're starting to see them crop up all over Instagram too. Pair yours with one of the year's key shoes—slingbacks—and you can't go wrong.

4. BOMBER JACKET + DENIM SKIRT
Style Notes: The humble denim skirt has become one of 2023's most sought-after items, with styles from COS to Celine selling out in record time. If you can get your hands on one or are lucky enough to already own one, we recommend styling it with an equally current bomber jacket.

5. BRIGHT BLAZER + ECRU JEANS
Style Notes: Green is one of the season's top colour trends. You can use it to breathe new life into your darker winter clothing, allowing you to carry them through to spring, but we love how lime tones look set against white and ecru tones.

6. PLEATED MIDI + CROPPED KNIT
Style Notes: Box-pleat skirts have taken over from the concertina pleats we typically see at this time of the year. Make like Olivia and style yours with a cropped knit for the ideal transitional look.
SHOP THE OUTFIT
7. LINEN SHIRT + WIDE-LEG TROUSERS
Style Notes: While stepping out of the house without a coat on might still be a little risky, there's no denying the appeal of layering a linen shirt over a white jersey vest and pairing them with wide-leg trousers. Simply switch out the sandals in favour of loafers, ballet flats or trainers until temperatures surge.
