The boundary between the seasons is blurring more and more, and nothing prevents us from wearing heavy chunky sweaters in the summer, and slip dresses in the winter. However, in spring, the first thing you want to do is to give up trousers, layered warm clothing and restrained (if not gloomy) colors. Therefore, we tell you what items of clothing and shoes should be made the basis of your wardrobe for the next three months. And it will be possible to diversify the base of the season and things that are coming soon.

Light dress slightly
above the knee
In principle, there are no restrictions and rules for choosing a dress for the spring. The only thing when buying a thing that you plan to wear a lot and often, carefully read the composition of the fabric and better not to skimp on quality and cut. The most comfortable and appropriate length is half a palm above the knee; it is logical to choose a model of calm shades that will go with most of your clothes. Great fit and beautiful colors are easy to find in the collections of Tory Burch, Jil Sander and Chloé.

Bright jacket
From leather, denim or cotton - there are many options for jackets for the spring. Everyone probably already has a model in black, and in the spring I want to add more light and bright shades to the wardrobe. Look for perfectly tailored leather jackets in white, pale pink, blue and other beautiful colors in the Iro, Acne and Rag & Bone collections, while the black but with a bright floral print can be found in Erdem. Basic denim jackets, which can be worn both as outerwear and as a jacket under a coat or trench coat on cool spring evenings, can be found both in the collections of brands specializing in denim and expensive brands such as Saint Laurent and Proenza Schouler.

Light coat or trench coat
As an alternative or addition to your leather jacket for spring, opt for a lightweight fabric coat or trench coat. You can find the option of neutral shades (beige, gray or khaki), or you can go all-in and buy a bright coat. Only your taste and the general color scheme of your wardrobe are important here. A pale yellow Stella McCartney, a red Valentino jacquard or a pink Karen Walker trench coat will help you organize your spring mood in no time. Coats in calmer versatile colors and variations on the classic Burberry trench coat can be found in the A.P.C. collection. ...

Classic sunglasses
When choosing a pair of sunglasses for all occasions, it is better to focus not on trends, but on the shape of the face. Choose models from quality materials, they will last you longer. In addition to the "aviators" and Ray-Ban wayfarers, there are classic variations in the collections of Stella McCartney, Linda Farrow and many others. If you have long dreamed of finding the very glasses behind which Audrey Hepburn hid the traces of a stormy night at Breakfast at Tiffany's, then write down the password: this is a Manhattan model, Tortoiseshell color, by Oliver Goldsmith.
