With spring on the horizon, we’re finally feeling the urge to shed our never-ending layers and slip into something lighter, brighter, and more carefree. Sartorially speaking, the easiest way to transition into the warmer season is with a simple change of top. Once the temps start to rise, get ready to say goodbye to the heavy chunky turtlenecks you’ve been swallowed up in for the last six months and start welcoming lightweight sweaters, cardigans, shirts, and blouses into your life (no thermals needed).
From charming cardigans to pretty blouses and chic prints, we're turning to some of our favorite fashion girls to see what tops they're styling with their go-to jeans this season. Keep scrolling for some charming and easy outfit combos you can easily steal for yourself.
Matching Knit Set
Matching knit sets will continue their reign into spring. Opt for one in a fresh, uplifting hue.

Pink
Bubblegum pink is huge for spring, and fashion people can't get enough. It's the perfect color to liven up your wardrobe as we head into the warm season.
