The Spring Priority List: 7 Basic Essentials for a Trendy Wardrobe

Let’s just call a spade a spade. There are a lot of appealing spring trends out there—from modern shoe silhouettes to current denim cuts. As a result, it can seem a bit daunting deciphering just where to start when it comes to curating that ideal spring wardrobe. An introductory edit is truly key. On that note, I believe there are a few key pieces worth considering first to build a trendy wardrobe. And believe it or not, the must-haves in question just so happen to skew on the basic side as well (rather, those next-level basics). After all, building a wardrobe with fresh basics will ultimately give you the necessary framework to create fashion-forward looks.

With all that in mind, I created a little checklist below to keep in the back of your mind (or to save to your phone to reference when you’re shopping) that focuses on the clothing essentials that are a priority this season—at least in my eyes. And to showcase said basics in action, I also included a bit of styling and shopping inspiration to give you a jump start on crafting that A+ spring wardrobe.

We recently declared the denim skirt (specifically in a midi length) as one of the key silhouettes of the season. Its versatility is particularly noteworthy with the ability to be dressed up with a blouse and heels or down with a tank and boots or sneakers.
While there is a range of jean styles to test out right now, flares are the denim cut du jour with their retro but very-right-now feel worn with just about any staple in your arsenal.
While a polo shirt could be considered standard, the spring collections proved that collared knits are actually one of the most sought-after basics out there. Whether in a heavier sweater material or ribbed, it’s a certified must-have for sure.
You’d be hard-pressed not to find a style setter with a reimagined trench coat in their arsenal this season. Rightfully so, the updated classic piece could basically be worn daily as the topper of choice, adding a modern flair to even the simplest of ensembles.
There’s been quite the resurgence of joggers as everyday wear this season with fashion people sometimes trading in leggings for sweatpants. We’re seeing basic joggers teamed with sophisticated separates like blazers and other strong tailoring pieces.
Sweater sets have quickly been ramping up to be a top staple among the fashion crowd as a cool way to bring polish to an ensemble. Whether worn with jeans, trousers, or, hey, even that denim skirt, this coordinating staple is worth a go.
Shop the matching Openwork Knit Top ($46).
Shop the matching Keva Sweater Tank ($65).
Shop the matching Knit Halter Top ($46).
Classic button-down shirts are anything but boring this spring. That timeless silhouette in a current cut acts as the anchor to the chicest and most elegant looks.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
