It's not that cardigans ever went anywhere, but there's no denying that they're back and trendier than ever. There are limitless ways to wear one, but for an ultracasual option, try some sweatpants, white sneakers, and a low-key statement bag. Consider the off-duty look mastered.

For a more medium-weather version of an oversized puffer, add a beige quilted jacket to your wardrobe. The tone is fresh and bright for Spring, yet more neutral than a colorful pastel.
