Spring style: 10 outfits to transition into warmer weather

April showers might bring May flowers, but they also signal the start of spring fashion. It's time to trade in heavy coats and boots for lighter layers and brighter hues. Here are 10 outfits to help you transition your wardrobe into warmer weather:

Unexpected pairings make for chic spring looks

Striped shirts and lace skirts, once a rare combination, are now a staple for spring style. Match the stripes with the skirt, then layer on a classic trench coat for a Parisian-inspired look that's both casual and feminine.

Denim doesn

Denim doesn't have to be matchy-matchy

Canadian tuxedos don't have to be perfectly coordinated. The key is building a cohesive color palette around your denim pieces. Here, a grey top, black accessories, and white bag keep everything cool-toned and intentional, even with two different washes.

Spring is the perfect time for pastels

Spring is the perfect time for pastels

Yellow and pink are a match made in heaven for spring fashion. This butter yellow and Pepto pink combo is full of fun and personality, balanced by neutral accessories and cow print details.

Sporty-chic for the office

Swap your blazer for a muted windbreaker to give your office uniform some edge. Add a pop of color with a pink purse for extra style points.

Polka dots dominate spring fashion

Polka dots were everywhere last season, but this spring they're here to stay in a big way. A whimsical print on a long maxi dress, especially paired with sleek ballet flats, is the epitome of spring style.

Floral-maxxing for spring fashion

Florals might be a spring staple, but doubling down with a matching two-piece set takes it to the next level. Add some pastel heels and a matching purse to look like the very embodiment of spring.

Jorts get a grown-up makeover

Who says jorts can't be dressed up? Pair them with a tailored blazer and some calf-length leather boots for a chic, adultified look.

Sheer fabrics add a touch of whimsy

Sheer is having a moment this spring, and white sheer pieces in particular feel fresh and light. Pair a sheer top with a lace skirt for a dreamy, ethereal look, and add some metallic accessories for a fun, edgy touch.

Tennis-core 2.0

This sporty aesthetic has been a spring and summer staple for years, but this look proves it still has legs when you push it. An oversized striped knit that's long enough to pass as a minidress, a butter yellow pleated skirt peeking out underneath, knee-high socks, and blue Mary Janes make for a playful, sporty look.

Easy spring layering

As the weather warms up, it's time to ease into lighter layers. Bring back that spring dress you've been dying to wear and throw on an oversized suede jacket to keep you warm without overheating. Add some socks with your heels for a cozy, stylish look.
