As evidenced by my past outfit stories here on Who What Wear, I will be forever loyal to easy looks that don’t sacrifice style. That said, as soon as I come across an outfit that fits the bill, I take a screenshot and save it for later. The start of spring inspired me to round up some solid outfit ideas that are easy yet elevated. I came across seven, in particular, that caught my eye for the season.
Below, I break down each look. They’re all super easy to pull off while remaining chic and are perfect for a variety of occasions. You’ll notice that each ensemble incorporates an array of elevated basics, including pieces like trench coats, T-shirts, linen pants, ballet flats, jeans, and more. Keep scrolling to check out and shop the standout spring outfit ideas.
