Spring basics

05 FEBRUARY 2020

Spring is finally here, the days are getting longer and all we want to do is put our jumpers in the cupboard! Now's the time to pull out your favourite warm-weather pieces and put your spring basics back on.

Basics are the essentials of your wardrobe. Timeless, you can adopt them whatever your style and combine them with all your outfits.

To help you do just that, Elora has put together her top spring basics.

1 - The beige trench coat

The trench coat is the timeless piece to bring out for spring! It's lightweight, but still allows you to cover up from the wind while staying 100% stylish. The advantage of the trench coat is that it can suit all body shapes and looks, whether you're going for chic or casual.

2 - The denim jacket

The denim jacket has stood the test of time! Straight from the USA, the denim jacket has been adopted by fashionistas everywhere. They come in all shapes and colours. The trick for spring is to choose a coloured denim jacket to liven up your outfits! Go for yellow, pink, coral or even aqua green.

3 - The water-repellent parka

Spring means rain! But just because the sun is making a comeback doesn't mean you have to abandon your hooded jackets. The water-repellent parka is your fashion ally for coping with spring showers in style. In beige, navy blue or khaki green, it's a perfect match for any look.

4 - The flowing blouse or shirt

The temperatures are rising again in spring, and we're glad to be rid of our jumpers and fleece jackets. This is the perfect opportunity to wear your favourite flowing shirt or blouse. It's best to choose white, floral or coloured to add a touch of pizzazz to your outfit.

5 - The cotton T-shirt

Whether white or coloured, the cotton T-shirt is a wardrobe essential. It goes with everything: jeans, skirts, trousers, shorts... and remains comfortable in all circumstances.

6 - Light blue jeans

Light blue jeans are another fashion basic to bring out in fine weather. Pair them with white trainers for an everyday look, or beige heels for a more sophisticated look. Bootcut, slim or straight, choose the shape you feel comfortable in.

7 - Flowing trousers

Flowing trousers are great to wear in warmer weather. Wear them rolled up for a more sophisticated effect, with a light shirt tucked inside. Whether you're going to work or strolling around town, you'll be stylish in all circumstances.

8 - The lightweight dress

We couldn't do this top without talking about dresses. Spring rhymes (almost) with lightweight dresses. Colourful, patterned, long, short, lacy... it's time to bring out your favourite dress! Prefer light, flowing cuts that are more comfortable to wear during the day, and reserve your slimmer, body-hugging styles for your evening outings.
