8 Spring Looks You Need to Steal Right Now

Photography by Colin Leaman.

Despite the recent temperature-bobbing, it’s spring, finally. And it’s just in time, too: If you’re anything like me, your cold-weather wardrobe has started to seem boring, same-old, a bit dark and, well, a tad too serious. Enter, spring’s stellar lineup of looks, all of which are loose, light, bright and fun.

Here, the eight looks we’re fawning over right now (shot on location at Longwood Gardens —where better to start spring dreaming?), and the central pieces you need to inject new life into your closet and your look. And there’s more: We’ve broken down the styles into price points both high and low, so you can get the look no matter what budget you’re working with. Say it with me now: Spring. Has. Sprung. Time to dress the part.
