We might still be in the middle of winter, but NYC got a taste of weather in the 50s this week, and subsequently, I've officially begun to focus all my attention on spring. Sure, I still must wear four layers minimum to leave the house at all times, but I've got that formula down pat, and with the next season on the horizon, I've decided there's no point in dwelling on cold-weather dressing for even another minute. It's time for a shift.
So in anticipation of the warmer days ahead, I've decided to start shopping like it's 65ºF and sunny. First up on the docket? All the affordable finds, of course. With so many amazing pieces already coming out—from the $75 H&M set I already ordered to the Zara heels I have my eyes on next—I have yet to find a reason to spend more than $100 on anything. To see my 29 top spring picks (so far), simply keep scrolling.
You bet I already ordered this set to wear out.
How could I not?
Let me just tell you the H&M jacket selection is amazing right now.
I'm thinking I'll just buy three of them right off the bat.
Without question an essential.
This shade of blue is everything, and we already know how I feel about this shoe style.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again—best top ever.
I love how they styled this with kitten heels and a tucked-in sweater.
We love a tweed moment!
Don't let the tights throw you off—this is a perfect spring skirt.
Perfect in every way.
The matching jacket is at the top of my list too.
Okay, technically it's $99.50, and it was too pretty to pass up.
I'm so glad the red trend isn't going anywhere.
Even with custom embroidery, it's well under budget.
Okay, I know it's not really bikini season, but I needed to share this because it was too good not to.
We can thank our editorial director, Lauren, for putting me on to these.
I would buy anything in this shade of green.
This can be the starting point of a very chic, all-brown outfit.
Wear them with all your jeans and pants for some subtle height.
I think about this mango jacket several times a day.
Wear them with everything from sweaters to T-shirts to blazers.
I love this with jeans or with black trousers and a blazer over.
I don't typically go for prints, but when they're this interesting and affordable, I do.
Of course, they come in black, but I'm oddly into the denim.
All I want is to wear a cardigan without a coat over it.
If it's good enough for Kaia Gerber, it's good enough for me.
Did I just find the skirt of the season?
When you want to wear a denim jacket without looking basic.
