I'm Ready for Spring—30 Fashion and Beauty Items That Have Me Swooning
It was love at first sight.
Most Coveted is a new shopping series sharing our editors’ curation of the must-know items they can’t stop thinking about.
We are in that final winter stretch when the cold weather starts to grow more irritable each day, and the only thing that can guide me through this limbo is the thought of spring. Envision this: fresh flowers, bluer skies, Sunday brunch (and a little bit of gossip) with the girls, and of course, a new outfit rotation. So in an attempt to expedite the seasonal shift, I've decided to lock myself away in my apartment until spring starts to reveal its beautiful self. (Seems logical, right?) In the meantime, I'll be busy compiling a list of my most coveted fashion and beauty buys for the impending season. Needless to say, spring brings out my flirty side, so expect to see romantic embroidered garments, playful pops of color, and floral-scented beauty products below. Here are the 30 items that have me swooning.
The creme colorway of this poplin shirt is just stunning and has a subtle vintage flair. This top will be a foundational piece in my spring 2024 wardrobe.
Though low-rise jeans will forever be a controversial trend, I find them supremely comfortable compared to most denim styles. The relaxed silhouette of this pair by Madewell looks effortless when styled with any top and accessories.
If you haven't already invested in ballet pumps, I highly recommend doing so for spring. The bow detailing and trim feel extra chic.
I've been searching high and low for the perfect pair of gold textured hoops, and this pair by Veneda Carter grabbed my attention easily.
Smock dresses remain a spring wardrobe necessity, and I'm eager to add one to my outfit rotation. Posse's Mylah Mini Dress checks all the boxes: intricate embroidery, scalloped trim, and lace detailing.
Light-toned suede accessories are very appropriate for spring, and the texture gives any ensemble a little more depth. This bucket tote is practical enough for running daily errands and makes a chic statement for your next garden party or picnic.
Spring weather can still be unpredictable. Investing in a trusty trench coat is the best fashion remedy.
The square neckline on this waistcoat is a contemporary twist on a classic wardrobe staple. I can't wait to style this with trousers, jeans, or a column maxi skirt for the office.
Banana Republic has become my go-to destination for trousers. Its size-inclusive selection is a lifesaver (especially for my petite frame), and the high quality and fair price point are unmatched.
I've been hesitant to purchase a pair of white flats out of fear that I'll ruin them, but my spring outfits won't look as put-together without this finishing touch, so I've decided to commit to the look. This pair by Sam Edelman is just what I've been looking for.
If romance could be bottled, this is what it would smell like. The floral notes of magnolia, gardenia, and water lotus are fresh and alluring.
The brown gingham pattern has a warm and refreshing effect that, when combined with the halterneck and wide-leg silhouette, is truly eye-catching.
Maybe it's because I grew up with two older brothers, but I've always preferred men's T-shirts for their oversized, breathable, and relaxed fit. Here's where I'd recommend stocking up on this essential wardrobe item.
These knit pants are the definition of stylish comfort. Though they come in a range of colors, mauve is my favorite, and it will be a fun addition to my closet.
PS: They also make the perfect travel pants.
Meet the oversized bag that does it all. The roominess is ideal for quick travel trips, workout sessions, and everything in between.
This must-have lip product doubles as a sheer gloss and a hydrating serum. I'll be keeping it in my handbag for the foreseeable future.
My affinity for the coquette aesthetic continues with this pretty embroidered top by Sézane.
Dark-wash denim has an undeniably classic look. The contrast stitching and carpenter loop take this maxi skirt to the next level.
I'd recommend styling this gorgeous suede belt with the above skirt and top to complete the look for spring.
Can you tell I've been obsessing over white shoes? These loafers are as comfortable as they are chic.
The ultimate spring beauty hack: this set of blush, bronzer, and highlighter. The stick application makes it easy to swipe on and works wonders, especially when on the go.
I love the way this structured denim jacket by A.L.C. is shaped like a sleek blazer.
This knit set is a '90s minimalist's dream. The best part is that the pieces can be worn together or styled separately, making this an exceptionally good steal.
This exfoliating oil balm by Villa Floriani is my secret to keeping my skin hydrated, nourished, and glowing.
It's worth adding another light cardigan to your wardrobe because spring is the season to embrace layering. This one by Massimo Dutti is on sale, too.
Fashion people couldn't be more ecstatic about the Mother and Clare V. collab. This is my favorite piece from the collection.
