11 Spring Outfits Every Woman Should Try

Dare to show a little more skin this season with a bustier or crop top. You don't have to shed your layers, but add intrigue with a bustier layered underneath your favorite button-up (or right on top if you prefer).

Jumpers are the new dress, according to the latest runways. Get a jump on the trend (no pun intended) this season and rework your office look with a jumper and blouse, rather than your typical sheath dress or pencil skirt. The results are infinitely fresher and fashion-forward, without trying too hard.

There's a denim takeover happening in our closets. From dresses to skirts, tops, and everything in between, it's not even really about jeans anymore. Embrace the look with a fresh spin on the favorite, adding a cool robe coat to trousers or showing off a denim dress at your next cocktail party — yes, denim like this is totally appropriate.

Slip dresses are hardly just for the boudoir anymore. Embrace the '90s staple with a modern spin: just add a sweatshirt or easy knit on top and finish with cool kicks on bottom to take it out of the house and just about anywhere for Spring.

Don't be shy — layer up the fashion-girl way with a dress right over pants or jeans. It's about the easiest way to tame a fancier dress or make a beachy option work for so many occasions. Just keep your dress above the ankle and jeans slimmer-cut to the body, so as not to lose your shape.

Trench coats will always be the classic Spring coat, but this season the coolest outerwear comes in the form of a bomber jacket. From bright, sporty renditions to silky, embroidered versions, they're the versatile outerwear option that will give your wardrobe basics a touch of what's trending now.

Adding flats to your cocktail dresses and work sheaths gives them an entirely contemporary update that's functional and cool. Embrace the look with polished sandals for weddings and parties, or slip into ballet flats or brogues at the office.

Liven up your look with coordinated separates. Just think of these pieces as the modern update on the suit. They're more versatile than a dress or jumpsuit, so you can wear these pieces together or break them up for different occasions. But in all cases, you'll always have one foolproof outfit that feels entirely new.

Showing a little shoulder is as easy as it is downright sexy. Whether slipping into a top or a cocktail dress, the result is the same every time: an unexpectedly sultry spin that never exposes too much.

If, like us, you need a break from your skinny jeans, denim culottes are the answer you've been waiting for. If you were too timid to give them a spin this Fall, now's your chance. Just style them the way you would any of your other denim, and watch the wide-leg silhouette flatter your figure, especially with heels or platforms that elongate the leg.

Spring runways were the big indicator that this season is all about feminine pleats. But if that doesn't convince you to embrace them IRL, watch them transform a button-up and sandals into a completely ladylike look that goes from the office out to drinks in a heartbeat.
