5 Simple Spring Outfits With Jeans and Trousers Fashion Editors Are Already Rotating

There are spring outfits, and then there are spring uniforms. The former are fun, but the latter are hard-working looks worthy of your capsule wardrobe. To me, a uniform is a reference point and a foundation that you can easily edit and build upon. A uniform isn’t overcomplicated, and it exists to make dressing feel easier whilst still reflecting your style identity. With spring within reaching distance, it’s time to shift from the collection of outfits that carried you through winter and adjust them for spring. With that in mind, editors are the people to look to when you’re compiling your own spring uniform. They know the importance of a reliably sophisticated outfit, one that’s neither too complex nor specific to a single occasion. Simplicity is key here, and that’s what the following outfits will show you.

The fashion editor uniform for this season (and really this year), relies on approximately three formative pieces, which can feel different depending on the additional accessories you pair with it. When you have the main pieces lined up, it’s easy to make it your own, either through changing the colors or materials, or rotating through different shoes, bags or small accessories like sunglasses and hair bands or clips. They’re not all the same either. You’ll find double-denim looks, trench coats, loafers, shirts, micro heels, blazers and dark-wash and bright white jeans all swirling around to create these combinations. The best part is, they’re all relatively simple and are comprised of items that work for more than just spring. That, and they work for a range of different occasions, whether you’re in the office most of the week or planning a spring weekend away.
