30 Staples for Expensive-Looking Spring Outfits

Most Coveted is a shopping series sharing our editors' curation of the must-know items they can’t stop thinking about.
Spring is approaching, so naturally, it's time for a wardrobe refresh. When I think of the ideal spring closet, items like trench coats, pastel separates, and delicate dresses and skirts immediately come to mind. Especially if they come in powder pink, the color du jour, or if they're constructed from a pretty fabric like silk, lace, or pointelle. I can't help having a talent for finding the best new arrivals, so why not use my shopping expertise for good? I did the legwork for you and created a master edit of high-quality, expensive-looking staples you can mix and match for endless spring outfits. From legacy designer labels like Bottega Veneta and Prada, to on-trend accessory brands like Heaven Mayhem and Freja New York, the finds below guarantee that you'll be the chicest person in any room.
