If you're looking to upgrade your wardrobe for spring, now's the time. While you may feel overwhelmed by all the trends of the moment — '90s dressing, bold prints, cutouts, bubble dresses, and low-rise everything — we're here to tell you that sometimes, keeping it simple is better. Because if you're not dressing for trends, your clothes will never go out of style.
Below you'll find our favorite timeless wardrobe staples. Pieces that, sure, you can pair with an accessory du jour, but also ones that will always look beautiful and flattering — forever.
Banana Republic Factory Store Forever Crew Pullover
Like having a plethora of comfortable, versatile T-shirts, stocking up on great crewneck sweaters ($25-$30) is never a bad idea. Especially when they come in lots of colors and are made from super-soft cotton. This pullover is also machine washable, so you can wear it over and over without having to schlep to the dry cleaner.
Banana Republic Factory Store Vegan Leather Jacket
A buttery leather jacket is a multi-season wardrobe essential. And if it's vegan ($80, originally $160), all the better. With a banded collar, zippered cuffs, and zipper welt pockets, this leather jacket's got some edge. Paired with a floral maxi or your favorite pair of jeans, it'll bring just a little bit of cool-kid to your springtime looks.
Banana Republic Factory Store Crepe Jacquard Scoop-Back Top
This top ($22, originally $45) offers the versatility of a basic T-shirt with a little extra pizzazz thanks to gathered shoulders and a flirty low back. It's a great way to dress up a pair of jeans in the daytime and to pair with one of those trendy miniskirts for a night out.
Banana Republic Factory Store High-Rise Pleated Crop Pant
Having a pair of pants that you can reach for every day, no matter the occasion, is essential. While finding the right shape and fit for your own body is important, we can't help but recommend these high-rise cropped pants ($45, originally $90) for their sophisticated style. While the balloon legs offer a relaxed feel, the front pleats and back-waist darts keep you looking put-together and professional for the workday and beyond.
Banana Republic Factory Store Resort Shirt
Despite its name, this resort shirt ($27, originally $55) would be equally as appropriate at the office with a blazer or on vacation tucked into some jeans. We love the breezy cuffed short sleeves and the flattering back pleat. Offered in a range of colors, this is a wardrobe staple you might want to stock up on.
Banana Republic Factory Store Mini T-Shirt Dress
We love a good T-shirt dress — one you can throw on at any time of day, cinch with a belt, and top with a jacket to look put-together and ready for anything. This T-shirt dress ($24, originally $60) delivers on comfort, made of mostly cotton and just a tiny bit of spandex for stretch. Pick one up in a solid color, or go for stripes if you're more into a Parisian look.
Banana Republic Factory Store Forever Cardigan Sweater
Perhaps it's due to the sweater sets of our youth, but we believe a good cardigan ($32-$39, originally $65) is such an important wardrobe piece. Offering a bit more femininity and structure than a classic crew neck, these cardigans are soft, supple, and can be worn whether you're headed to work, the grocery store, or out to brunch.
Banana Republic Factory Store Simple Classic Sneaker
When it comes to spring shoes, a pair of white sneaks ($40, originally $80) is just the thing you need, no matter your plans. They'd look just as good with a T-shirt dress as they would with a pair of chinos and a blouse. Dress them up or down — they're the quintessential wardrobe staple you'll wear time and again (and again and again).
