TikTok's Best Dressed Share Everything on Their New-Season Wish Lists
The days are brighter, the trees are filled with blossoms and the sun is setting past 7 p.m. Finally, we made it and spring is upon us. After the doom and gloom of a never-ending winter, I think I speak for us all when I say the season of fresh beginnings can't come soon enough. As we take a deep breath and reset (starting with a round of spring wardrobe cleaning), we're ready to rejuvenate our rotations, so it’s prime time to assess the gaps that need filling for the months ahead.
Perhaps you're looking for a lightweight jacket to replace your winter coat? Maybe it's a pretty dress and sandals in the place of chunky boots and even chunkier knits. Whatever your new-season aesthetic calls for, creating a spring wish list is best kickstarted with some stylish inspiration, so naturally I consulted the people who know the trends before they go mainstream—TikTok's finest. I asked five of social media's savviest dressers what’s on their radar for the coming months, and they did not disappoint. From Western-inspired cowboycore to minimalist staples, keep scrolling to see and shop the spring-ready pieces on these influencers' wish lists. There's something for everyone.

"Aligne is the brand of the moment. It has always had the best pieces but I think it just exploded thanks to the new campaign with Lucy Bronze. I got this waistcoat to wear for a talk I did a few weeks ago because I wanted to look cool but slightly corporate, and I’ve had so many compliments every time I’ve worn it. You can pair it with the matching trousers for a full 'corporate hottie' look, but I’m planning on wearing it with jeans and heels next weekend."
"This might be my favourite piece in my wardrobe right now. It’s so versatile and the quality is so good. If I’m not wearing my grey jumper then you’ll probably find me in this. I wear it tucked in and belted with jeans, but when it gets a bit warmer I’m going to use it as a jacket to wear over strappy minidresses."
"These shoes are so classy and I feel like such a grown-up (which I am) every time I wear them! I think I may get them in blue too. They go with pretty much anything, but my next plan is to wear them with a vintage black pencil skirt I got last year and a white tee."
"I’m obsessed with this jumper. I wear it at least three times per week and it's so comfortable yet super stylish. When I wear it I feel like I’m in loungewear, but it’s a proper knit that I can wear outside the house too. Magic. I wear it with jeans or tracksuit bottoms but it can be easily styled up or down."

"I’ve had these boots on my wish list for a long time and may have to take the plunge this spring. They'll perfectly contrast 'feminine' pieces like dresses and skirts that I gravitate towards during the warmer months."
"I just recently bought this Toteme top as an investment piece for the season and I’m so excited to style it with black or silk trousers."
"I love this pleated denim skirt from & Other Stories. Add the matching denim jacket with a white tee and black pumps for a more put-together look."
Shop the matching Boxy Denim Jacket (£95).
"I'm not too big on jewellery but I haven't stopped thinking about these Heaven Mayhem earrings. They're such a versatile piece that can elevate any outfit."
"This set from Reformation is a must-have for the season! Perfect for warm spring and summer days. To dress it up, add a pair of strappy heeled sandals or knee-high boots, and to dress it down, ballet flats or sneakers will do the job."

"I had the blue version of this last year and I wore and loved it so much that this candy-pink hue is a no-brainer to me. A super-comfy shape whilst also feeling cute and sexy—win-win."
"I love wearing colour, so this Jakke trench coat for spring/summer is totally my vibe. I would wear it with a graphic tee and jeans for an easy outfit."
"As mentioned, if there’s one thing I love, it’s a graphic tee! This Story MFG. one is so cute for spring and has a positive message. I’d wear it with a slip skirt and my favourite trainers for an easy outfit. "
"Leopard-print jeans are everywhere this season. I think this River Island pair is a great option at a good price point. I pair my leopard print with pops of pink all year round."

"I know these are going to fill a major wardrobe gap for me. A pair of low-top sneakers in a fun pop of colour will go with so many transitional outfits. A bonus is that they are made to demand, so it's a very sustainable choice!"
"I’m a recent convert to silver jewellery and won't be turning back anytime soon. I love how these spiral earrings would complete and elevate even the most basic looks."
"I love the ruching and how you can transform the skirt depending on how you want to style it. Oats the Label is one of my favourite Australian designers, and the construction of the clothes is always such high quality. I’m super excited to receive this one in the post."
"What’s not to love about a Mary-Poppins-style bag that fits everything? I particularly love the shape and silhouette this one creates. A perfect everyday piece!"

"Did I just come across this brand 48 hours ago? Yes. Is it now on my permanent wish list? Also, yes. I collect Western-inspired fashion, and this red suede jacket from Understated Leather has kept me up at night since the first time I saw it. This jacket is such an incredible piece that I know would add dimension to any outfit during any season."
"As a tall girly, I can never have enough pairs of trousers that actually hit the ground on me. Gap and Banana Republic are my forever go-tos for this and are on my wish list at all times. They have the best sales and cutest styles at the start of every season. I swear nearly all of my outfits start with a pair of these trousers, then I build around them."
"Any and all cowboy boots are always on my wish list, but this pair from Toga Pulla have been at the top for a while. The silver hardware gives the black boots an incredibly chic touch—I would die to wear these with a pair of metallic athletic shorts."
"Brighton makes the best belts ever, no argument. I always grab them from eBay—they have so many listings of vintage ones with such interesting silver buckles and details. These are a signature of any outfit I wear and I’m always searching for new ones to add to the collection."

"I’ve found myself becoming obsessed with simple halter tops again—I love something that can easily be dressed up or down, and comfort is key for me, so I want to be able to move around and be at ease all day as the days get warmer."
"A colourful trousers and flip-flop combo is a must-have for me this summer. It’s easily going to be one of my go-to summer outfits, and I love a bright red moment."
"I’ve recently been trying to get comfortable wearing shoes that aren’t black, white or brown, and I love these yellow Repettos. They’re so girly and perfect for my spring/summer wardrobe. The small heel is a perfect balance between casual and dressed-up. I’d totally wear these with a pair of low-rise, straight-leg jeans."
"This bag is just stunning all around. The colour is a gorgeous burgundy and I love the structure. It’s so unique! I would style this bag with a boxy blazer or jacket and a dainty dress."
