You might think that neutral outfits and the season of Spring donโt go together. After all, Spring design is all about color, floral patterns, and bright tones, right? If you thought this, then grab a cup of coffee and get ready to rethink your wardrobe. Tis the season of new beginnings.
I wouldnโt say Iโm the most unbiased person when it comes to what neutral outfits 2022 can bring, but I am honest. Once the weather gets warmer, everything becomes (and feels) simpler, so why wouldnโt this be the same for your clothing as well?
Itโs perfectly fine to join the bright-pink-slash-fuchsia invasion happening right now, but if you have already built the perfect capsule wardrobe, or are about to, you are well aware no one could guarantee you will still be wearing this insanely neon blazer you just purchased two years from now. This is why I decided to gather up some neutral tone outfits, promising to conquer the streets once April rolls around.
Besides being spring-approved, they consist of basic pieces, which everyone should (more like MUST) have in their wardrobe. After all, Iโm sure that both Kim Kardashian and Madonna have a white shirt somewhere.
You too? Thatโs a pretty good place to start from. Now letโs talk about style and do some shopping. As always, the pleasure is all mine.
7 EFFORTLESSLY CHIC NEUTRAL OUTFITS YOU MUST COPY THIS SPRING:
Relaxed Sweater + White Shirt + Cycling Shorts

Not that I need to say it out loud, but I have to be honest. No matter how much I love England, my endless passion for Paris has inspired this look. And no matter if you are visiting the City of Lights anytime soon, or you are only dreaming about it, letโs kick off the list with some ideas for chic neutral outfits.
Biker shorts with chunky boots may sound like a weird combination, but it offers the smoothest transition from the gym to that last-minute date you agreed to go on later this afternoon. Overlaying a soft sweater over a classic white shirt is always a good idea. Finish the ensemble with a tote bag thatโs big enough to carry your flowers and baguettes. Emily Cooper would love it. Who else is waiting for season 3?!
Side note: swap the cycling shorts with formal black pants and the ultimate office look is complete too.
White Linen Shirt + Mom Jeans + Neutral Stiletto Heels
Recreate this look:
Casual neutral outfits can never be described as such if the classic white linen shirt is missing from the picture. #SorryNotSorry. And while most people still tuck it in, I suggest you let it loose and wear it over a simple top or bralette.
It goes without saying โ but Iโm still going to say it โ high-waisted mom jeans are absolutely back, and they go hand in hand with every white piece you can dig out from the wardrobe archives. Itโs the perfect choice for long romantic walks and those nights when the party has no end in sight, so you just go with the flow.
Yes, I see you noticed the stilettos, and you may be thinking Iโm out of my mind, but getting a comfortable pair could really transform your perspective on the matter. Bonus points if theyโre vegan, like these beauties from M&S that Iโm wearing.

White Shirt + Sweater Vest + Gingham Shorts + Knee High Boots
Recreate this look:
If I was a part of the original โGossip Girlโ cast, I would 100% dress like this. Since I was not, I had to try this trรจs chic and trรจs romantic outfit, exuding MAJOR Blair Waldorf vibes.
Hereโs what you need. Simple shirt? Yes. Preppy white bag? Oh, yeah. Knee-high boots? For sure. The pink and white gingham shorts add a pop of color and a certain spice to your otherwise simple outfit. If pastel shades are more your thing, then bring them in to compliment the white and beige elements of your ensemble.
The sweater vest with big buttons is also a great spring essential. It doesnโt have to always be associated with Chandler from Fโ Rโ Iโ Eโ Nโ Dโ S. Surprise your man with this look for your next date night. As the temperatures rise outside, youโll have more and more excuses to enjoy fancy dinners outside your apartment. I bet you canโt wait to see what neutral outfits summer will bring.
Stripe Sweater + Mom Jeans + Neutral Court Shoes

A coffee in hand and Iโm feeling grand. The only thing smoother than this latte is my introduction to this outfit. You will feel right at home rocking this outfit uptown. Although, you can copy this look and enjoy the upcoming brunch with the girls downtown too.
As in look 2, here Iโm wearing my new favorite vegan leather stilettos and organic cotton jeans from Marks & Spencer. Ethically sourced clothing is making its way into the mainstream. You wonโt need those binoculars to find the small number of brands getting involved. The retail world is filling with neutral outfit inspo. If M&S are introducing them, we can be sure that itโs just a matter of time before sustainability is the norm. Just like these super comfy organic cotton mom jeans. Theyโre here, and theyโre here to stay.
The striped sweater is great and versatile because you can hit the streets with it in the spring, then put on a camel coat to make neutral winter outfits. Donโt worry, you would still look a-ma-zing if you opt for some fashion updates. Think printed T-shirt and platform sandals instead of a sweater and heels.
White Turtle Neck + White Coat + Sage Jeans
Recreate this look:
I donโt know about you, but for me, owning a great pair of jeans is essential for every season. Having that go-to pair is a real-life saver. No time, no idea, no problem.
Even though most of the time I donโt lean toward trends, I feel obliged to tell you that this spring, green is going to be everywhere. But since we are talking about neutral outfit ideas, sage is your shade, and you are going to love it. I do too, so I advise you to get a bag in the same color, and youโll be the coolest IT girl in your followersโ feed. Check my #GRWM Reel to get some ideas for neutral outfit captions.

Did you know that suit pants and chunky trainers can be paired together? Well, neither did I till I tried this combination. I hadnโt really considered it before, but it turns out they really work. Itโs a great idea for when you want to look chic but not too dressy.
The main essentials here are: a white shirt, white long sleeve t-shirt, and my favorite VEJA sneakers Shia LaBeouf would just love. Remember when everyone was talking about his shoe choices? Yeah, feels like a long time ago.
Can we talk more about these suit pants, though!? After having relied so heavily on jeans and leggings for so long, these are a real game-changer. Just adding this one pair to my capsule can add hundreds of more outfit options. You wonโt be short of neutral outfits ideas, thatโs for sure. Every journey on foot just became a runway show. The star? You. The audience? Everyone who has the pleasure of seeing you.
