Although this year’s groundhog didn’t quite see its shadow on that hopeful day in early February, we still have our eyes on spring.
Without a shadow of a doubt, this year’s springtime fashion — from oversized blazers and colette-style work pants to pastel dresses and elevated athleisure — is bound to be one worth talking about.
We’re following the trends and have our alerts on high for this year’s latest styles and, much to our delight, top brands like J.Crew, Madewell and Target have already started its spring collection drops.
Ahead, we rounded up all the sought-after, buzzy brands worth shopping from, along with a few styles from each to get you going. After all, your warm-weather wardrobe is just around the corner, waiting for you.
For elevated, feel-good workwear, you can’t go wrong with M.M.La.Fleur. Its spring soiree of investment-worthy pieces have us on the edge of our seats wanting to buy them, like its brand-new ‘Jardigan’ (aka, the hybrid of your best jacket and sworn-in cardigan), alongside moody tones and nods of floral patterns.
