It’s nice, isn’t it? Walking around town with denim shorts, a denim jacket, and a straw bag, showcasing your picture-perfect spring outfit in spring staple pieces… Good, but is it one that will make you super trendy this year and super outdated the next? Or is it one that will stand the test of time and cement your timeless style?

Get your Spring staples ready for the new season. With these pieces, your outfits will blossom every single day.

DON’T GET CAUGHT WITHOUT THESE SPRING STAPLES IN 2024:

1. Breton Stripe Tee  

Whether you already know it or you have never thought of it this way, let me clear the air. The striped tee to your spring capsule wardrobe is like the little black dress to your evening one – easy to match and always a good choice. Get this on your list of capsule wardrobe essentials.

2. Basic White T-Shirts  

It’s cool if you love following runway trends and piling up bright pink over neon green, but buying a significant amount of basic white T-shirts is like step one when you choose to hit the minimalist road. I really don’t know why I put it under number 2, especially when it’s the number 1 of spring staple items. But you get it – it’s versatile, simple, and never goes out of style.

3. Classy White Shirt  

If there’s one thing you can wear to that important meeting, to the two baby showers this weekend, and to your aunt’s 70 birthday party looking like you’ve got it all together, it’s the classy white shirt. It works just fine with leggings, denim, and skirts. The same applies to boots, sneakers, and block heels. Making it the top of the fashion essentials.

4. Cotton Sweater  

Since spring is definitely close to summer – but it’s definitely not summer – you need something for those is-it-warm-or-is-it-cold kinds of nights. Replace the cashmere sweater with a cotton crew. Opting for a ridiculously soft and incredibly comfortable piece is a MUST.

5. Stripe Sweater 

Adding a striped sweater to your list with wardrobe essentials is… well… essential. Pair it with your favorite boyfriend jeans and white sneakers. You may have 138 unread emails to get back to, but you will be having the best #OOTD. Who knew it was that simple?

6. Classy Cardigan 

Cardigans can be pretty particular, but you’ll find the right one when you see it. I’ve got my eyes on this one, and I believe it’s a MUST-HAVE closet staple in any wardrobe. Two words to describe it? Beautiful and classy. Plus, it can be worn all year round, so it’s a long-term win-win.

7. Neutral Oversized Blazer  

And here, my ladies, is THE blazer of 2024. Spring staple jackets like this will be sold out quickly. So RUN, don’t walk.

8. Belted Trench Coat 

Let me introduce you to another beautiful investment from your new favorite brand, THEORY which cares about our environment. I usually say it super often, but when it’s good for the Planet, it’s also good for us. And by ‘it’ I mean a cream belted trench coat, there’s no other way to put it. I LOVE this one! A wardrobe must-have for every woman.

9. Cropped Vegan Leather Pants  

Put the ‘P’ in perfect with these cropped vegan leather pants. I’m pretty sure the joke is not that funny when I got it out of my head and typed it down, but you can be sure to catch all eyes on you with a total black look. All-black lightweight sweater, black Converse sneakers, black baseball cap, black belated coat. Hailey Bieber would approve.

10. Beige Wide Leg Pants  

Another must-have? Wide-leg pants! I have this exact pair in beige and black, and I can attest they are the most comfortable and flattering ones I own. They come in two lengths, so if you’re petite like me, opt for the 30-inch ones. Btw, you can (read: should) get a matching new blazer! Highly recommend!

11. Cropped Denim Jeans  

It doesn’t matter if you are more of a dress girl. Owning a few pairs of straight jeans = solving all your fashion crises. These come in three different sizes – super cool because there are a lot of petite and tall girls who are not OK with the standard sizes.

Plus, Everlane’s jeans are amazing – soft, stretchy, and the most comfortable fit you could ever ask for. Speaking from a personal experience.

12. Maxi Skirt 

I don’t know what your take is on the matter, but the maxi skirt is back, and I’ve recently rediscovered them as well. Get one with belt loops and a front slit, so you let it do the talking. Black is always an option. However, neutral shades are the IT piece of the season. Add a statement jewelry piece, and you’ll be street-style-ready for whatever the day has to offer.

13. Everyday Sneakers 

Tbh, what are you doing with your life if you don’t have everyday sneakers to wear – literally, not figuratively – all the time? Get ones with a solid rubber sole to feel comfortable with every step you take (and every move you make), and in a favorite neutral color. If you want to keep up with the IG trends, go for the Adidas Samba ones.

14. Cream Sandals

Once warm weather rolls around, we need to embody not only the carefree spirit but the carefree way of styling too. Leave the strappy sandals behind and get yourself a pair of open-toed platform sandals, so you can top off any outfit look on that next weekend road trip. Comfort is not up for discussion, girls.

15. Timeless Sunglasses  

Hiding behind a pair of designer sunglasses is way better than hiding behind a pair of regular sunglasses. Go for classic lines, rectangle frames, and black color, like this gem from PRADA. They are the only accessory you’ll ever need in spring. And in every other season, for that matter. Definitely a necessity when looking for how to build a classic wardrobe.

16. Versatile Bag  

A versatile bag is a very subjective term, but we know it’s definitely not those super-small- cannot-even-fit-my-phone-in-it bags (I guess I have something for hyphens). My personal favorite is a neutral tote bag you can use for running errands around town (grocery shopping counts too) and for your next date night.

With the arrival of a new season usually comes the confusion of exactly what to wear, when to wear, and how to wear it.

I hope my edit with spring wardrobe staples will give you the wardrobe update of your dreams.

If you’ve stuck with me through that whirlwind tour of the ultimate spring staples for 2024, you’re probably excited to give your wardrobe that fresh, seasonal update it’s been craving.

From the must-have white tee that’s as versatile as it is essential, to those new arrivals that promise to keep your spring outfits on-point, we’ve covered ground on pieces that’ll have you stepping out in style and confidence.

Fashion For Thought

Let’s circle back to a couple of key pieces that deserve a spot in your closet. That white t-shirt? It’s not just a basic; it’s the backbone of your spring and summer wardrobe. Pair it with light wash jeans for a casual day out or layer it under lady jackets for an evening twist.

Speaking of, don’t shy away from adding a few lightweight jackets to your collection. Whether it’s chic sneakers for sunny days or ballet flats for a touch of elegance, your footwear can truly define your look.

Now, if you’re a savvy shopper, keep your eyes peeled for special offers and free shipping deals. Brands like Banana Republic often have amazing deals that help you get more bang for your buck.

Plus, investing in quality options like a good pair of jeans or a flattering fit white denim can save you from the need to refresh your wardrobe when the next season rolls around.

As we dream of lighter layers and say goodbye to heavy coats, it’s worth noting that the transition from winter coats to spring dresses doesn’t have to be drastic. Incorporating new pieces like lightweight sweaters or slingback heels can gradually shift your wardrobe into the new season without a complete overhaul.

Also, let’s not forget about the importance of accessories. A minimalist sandal, a versatile bag, or timeless sunglasses can elevate a simple outfit to something special.

I’ve worked hard to curate this list of spring staples with you in mind. From shoulder tops that flatter every body type to key pieces like the eternal white tee, I believe that less is more. And remember, the best ways to update your look for the spring season involve embracing both new trends and timeless classics.

Before you go…

Finally, as we welcome the new season, let’s strive to make our world a better place. Opting for sustainable options, like vegan leather jackets or eco-friendly denim shirts, can make a big difference. It’s about looking good, feeling great, and doing good too.

So, as you revamp your spring wardrobe, think of it as more than just keeping up with the latest fashion. It’s about expressing yourself, making conscious choices, and finding joy in the pieces you wear.

Whether it’s the heavy rotation of your favorite short sleeves or the anticipation of wearing spring dresses, enjoy every moment of this beautiful season.

I hope it can also breathe a little bit of new life into some long-forgotten outfits. Even if it’s just a floral top, a light jacket, a sweater blazer, or slide heels. Happy Spring!
