spring '26 fashion feels

Is anyone else feeling a little bit giddy in this spring season?? I am normally such a fall and winter girl, but as I get older, I find that I am starting to appreciate what each season has to offer a little bit more. BUT I have also been so inspired by spring fashion these days. Is it just me, or does it feel extra fun and chic this year?

So, what fun fashion am I currently vibing with as the crisp winter air is exchanged for sunshine, new life, and lifted spirits? I've got 11 - let's get into it!

1. Little Color Moments

   Like what a vibe. I love neutral, minimal outfits, but the addition of a little color moment is it for me this spring. I'm living for the fun bags, statement shoes, colored basics, and more. This gives effortless cool girl that has a little bit of fun.

2. Silk & Lace

   I have been obsessed with the silk and lace combo for quite some time now, but it is so gorgeous for spring. I tend to gravitate toward masculine shapes and silhouettes in my fashion choices, but I love the way a chic pair of silk and lace shorts, a little mini dress, or a layered asymmetrical silk dress brings a soft feminine touch to an outfit.

3. Animal Print Accessories

   Give me all the zebra and cowhide! I love the fun twist on a neutral that this brings to a fit. Currently on my wishlist of animal print accessories is this the gorgeous bag from Reformation below and a pair of zebra print pointed toe kitten heels.

4. Cowboy Boots

   IMO... nothing says spring quite like pulling out the cowboy boots. Style with some silk shorts, a dress and oversized blazer, or with an elevated casual outfit (think Princess Diana), and you have the perfect little spring fit. Unmatched in the cool girl department.

5. White Jeans

   I have been seeing white jeans all over my Pinterest feed, and I am here for it. White jeans are the perfect spring and summer staple - they are so chic! My favorite white jean fit is a white tee, relaxed style jean, and a simple black sandal. Abercrombie has some really great options for white jeans and jean linen blends.

6. Brown or Colored Blazers

   It is no secret that I am in the blazer fan club, but I needed a little shift from my staple black blazers to something more spring coded. Brown was my natural progression, but colored blazers are such a fun twist for spring. I'm particularly into navy right now but green or even pink would be such a fun spring zest.

7. Fun Shorts

   Classic, chic, and funky shorts fits are it for spring heading into summer. I love seeing the creativity and unique twist that people put on a seemingly simple shorts outfit - think athletic shorts styled up and slouchy Bermuda trouser shorts. I also love a comfortable outfit that feels put together which is the style pocket these effortless shorts outfits are sitting in. Here for it!

8. Classic Minimal Sandals

   The more simple the better. Minimal accessories and beauty have been my go to these days. I have been gravitating towards natural nails, minimal makeup, and simple silhouettes and I find classic sandals as the perfect chic addition to this vibe. They are giving effortless cool girl.

9. Relaxed Elevated Sweatpants

   Comfortable and chic. Circling back to my obsession with comfortable, put together outfits - I can't get enough. When I started to see this elevated sweatpants style all over my Pinterest feed for spring, I could not wait to put together looks. I know this one is controversial and not for everyone, but it's definitely for me. Catch me in an elevated sweats look as much as I possibly can.

10. Chic Athleisure

    I could sit in this style pocket forever. Again, this one might get some no's from some people out there, but I am a full send yes! The more classic route would be picture 1 and 3 below with leggings or biker shorts, a unique touch like a shirt tied around the waist, a chic bag, classic sunnies, and a good pair of tennis shoes. However, I am loving unique looks like picture 2 with windbreakers, leggings/capris!/biker shorts, a chic bag, and little heels or sandals.

11. White Tees and Tanks

    There is nothing like a white tee look - nothing new here! White tees are my most worn item in my closet, and I love the addition of a staple white tank for spring and summer. Style with jeans, layered over a silk dress, trouser shorts, or under a blazer ... so may options for a white tee/tank spring.

The majority of these photographs throughout this blog were not taken by me or owned by me. Images found on Pinterest. These gals all inspired me so much!

Okay, so those are my go to fashion pieces and vibes for spring '26! I have curated my perfect collection of spring fashion below. I hope you enjoying building your closet and trying new looks this spring and summer. Enjoy the inspiration and joy the new season brings.
