Skirts are leading the trend this season. And if last year “gold” rightfully went to mini models, now midi and maxi intersect with palms. So this spring, you can safely pick up images of Rachel from Friends, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley or Zoe Kravitz. By the way, another plus of skirts of this length is the ease of styling. Combine it with high socks, trendy sneakers and sweatshirts during the day, and with Mary Jane shoes and a basic body in the evening.

The teeth-stretching beige trench coat for all (and not only) residents of the Garden Ring can easily be replaced with a leather version. Moreover, the aesthetics of Trinity in the Matrix does not lose its relevance. To make it easier to style with the rest of the wardrobe, we recommend betting on black models. For example, the skirt and blue shirt mentioned above will go perfectly with a leather trench coat. The image can be supplemented with a flirty beret and coarse loafers.

We also hint that you can’t do without pants this spring. It can be worn with a t-shirt, a shirt, or even a turtleneck. We also really like the trick that street style heroes often use – wearing a knitted vest under the jacket. By the way, it is not necessary to wear the top and bottom of the suit in a duet. Nobody forbids trying, so feel free to pick up a maxi skirt, jeans, sweaters and tops and put on makeup.

The body is a real lifesaver in a girl’s wardrobe. Basic models with crew neck or round neckline are ideal for any look. You can be inspired by Jane Birkin, who makes a body with her long slit skirt. Or check out some photos of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and make sure the body is chameleon-like once again.

Well, what spring without a jacket! The choice of the ideal option that will serve faithfully for more than one season should be approached with special responsibility. If you still don’t have a quality coat in your arsenal, we recommend starting with a straight cut and a length just below the knee. And only then can you choose fitted models and extremely long ones (as at Saint Laurent’s September show). As for colors, it is best to start with black and only then move on to beige, brown and gray.

Many underestimate hats, but in vain. After all, they are the things that complete the image. The right accessory sets the right accents and gives character to the outfit.

With their help, it will be possible to maximize the experimental indicator.

Sweatshirts, hoodies and long sleeves are must-haves for any street fashionista’s wardrobe. Things with a sporty character can be worn with both coarse leather jackets and classic coats (by the way, Hayley Bieber loves such a trick). And down, you can wear at least a knee-length miniskirt, or at least camper pants. We recommend choosing large-sized options so that the image looks moderately careless. It’s like you’re wearing something that fell out of the closet.

Therefore, the purchase of this essential wardrobe item will definitely come in handy. Choose models in soft tones, starting with which colors dominate your closet. Mix them with all of the above in this article and get inspired by ideas from fashion bloggers. For example, we really like the technique where the sweater plays the role of a scarf (as in the last Lemaire show) or a belt.
