Ready To Turn Up The Heat This Spring & Summer?
As the months grow warmer and we're finally able to shed some of those bulky winter layers, many of us feel motivated to piece together cute outfits again. While spring chill encourages us to get creative with layers, the sizzle of summer allows us to finally show some skin and bust out the cute hats. Whether you're a glamor girl or a minimalist mama, we've got some fashion inspiration for you. Here are 20 indispensable spring and summer looks to incorporate into your wardrobe this season.

1. Wide-Leg Linen Trousers
Wide-legged trousers are perfect when you're in the mood for a look that's a little more classy and elegant than short shorts. Bonus points if they're high-wasted and pleated.
2. Slip-Skirt
The slip skirt has its origins in the 90s, as part of the minimalist fashion revival, and it's back again. It's comfortable, feminine, practical, elegant, and timeless.
3. Minimalist Slip Dress
Popularized by fashion icons like Kate Moss, the slip dress was the summer look of the 90s that never really went out of fashion since. You can never go wrong with a summer slip.
4. Button-Up Vest
The button vest was first worn by Coco Chanel, who had a knack for feminizing men's fashion staples. Today, ladies wear it with nothing underneath for a sexy and elegant summer look.
5. Oversized Button-Up Shirt
A trip to any of the major women's clothing stores will tell you how "in" oversized button-ups are these days. So much so it's hard to find fitted button shirts anymore. It kind of looks and feels like you're wearing your boyfriend's dress shirt, and we're all for it.
6. Silk Scarf
The silk scarf is the perfect accessory to class up any spring or summer look. Especially in spring months when it can still get chilly in the evenings, having something to drape over yourself is indispensable.
7. Layered Sheer
It was once only a party look, but now you see it everywhere. The layered sheer looks sexy without being revealing, and exudes confidence, fun, and cheekiness.
8. Quilted Jacket
For those spring months when there's still a persistent chill in the air, you'll want a good, versatile outer layer. The quilted jacket is the perfect answer, offering warmth, coziness, and cuteness.
9. Basket Bag
Last year, we saw basket bags explode in popularity, and we can only expect them to come back again this year as the weather turns sunny and warm. They're super useful and add a beach aesthetic to your vibe, even if all you have in there is boring work stuff.
10. Cat Eye Sunglasses
Add some drama and glamour to your look with some cat-eye sunglasses. Reminiscent of the golden age of Hollywood, this timeless accessory is flattering on almost every face shape.
11. Hair Scrunchie
Spring is a perfect time to bring out the hair accessories. Scrunchies are super in right now as they can add a fun and playful vibe to your look.
12. Vintage Bucket Hat
Keep those UVs off your face and look cute while doing it in a bucket hat. We love the vintage-style ones that flood us with 90s nostalgia.
13. Basic Tee
Who doesn't practically live in a basic tee through the spring and summer months? They're so practical, versatile, and comfortable.
14. Lighweight Cardigan
As far as we're concerned, cardigans will never go out of style. They can be worn with anything from cut-off shorts to formal attire and are just perfect for taking the chill off.
15. Utility Jacket
Another great spring look is the utility jacket. Taking inspiration from army attire, utility jackets add a bit of tomboy to your ensemble.
16. Flowy Striped Pants
It's finally fashionable to wear what's basically a pajama pant out of the house! These cute and comfortable pants can be paired with a basic tee, fitted jacket, and sneakers for the perfect spring look.
17. Boxer Shorts
The time we live in that we can leave our house in boxer shorts and be seen as the most fashionable girl on the street. The perfect casual shorts for keeping you cool and cute can actually be found in your boyfriend's underwear drawer.
18. Flowy Maxi Skirt
Flowy maxi skirts are very Jane Austen, and we're here for them. They make our inner little girl feel like a princess, and they can be dressed up or down.
19. Loafers
Add some schoolgirl chic to your look with loafers. Pair them with some white ankle socks and a short skirt and button vest to complete the look.
20. Dressy Sandals
We love Birkenstocks as much as the next girl, but there's a time and place for dressy sandals, too. From strappy heels to mesh ballet shoes, your footwear can be a statement as much as any other aspect of your outfit.
