A spring look should never be boring. What if the secret to a fresh and dynamic spring style lay in the details? Discover 8 fashion tips to definitely make a difference with your seasonal outfit.
The French favorite season is about to start. Flowers are blooming, days are getting longer, passersby are taking the time to sit on a café terrace… In short, there’s a certain spring vibe in the air lately.
But this traditional change of season is also heard in the wardrobes. Many of us take advantage of this in-between time to declutter our closets and gently transition to a spring wardrobe.
While it’s obvious to create summer outfits with seasonal essentials, it’s not always easy to add style to your outfits. Because no, the combination of sandals, jeans, and a floral shirt is not the only possible combination.
Do you want to energize your spring outfit? To subtly upgrade your essentials to create a unique seasonal style?
That’s what we will explore in this article. Discover 8 easy fashion tips to integrate into your routine to definitely twist a spring look and give it a seasonal boost.

1 – Ditch dark colors for seasonal shades
We start this series of easy tips to pimp your spring look with a rather obvious, yet no less important, piece of advice: the choice of colors.
If wearing colors is not exclusive to sunny days, spring is the perfect opportunity to have fun with your clothes by daring to wear bolder colors, pastel shades, or softer hues. This doesn’t mean you have to stop wearing neutral or muted colors, but spring is the perfect excuse to energize your outfit, brighten it up, or even soften it with color.
And for that, you have two ways to achieve it.
You can either sprinkle your look with vibrant color touches by adorning yourself with a lime green chino, a short-sleeve mimosa knit, fuchsia sandals, or a pair of royal blue earrings.
Another option is to play adventurous and embrace your style by daring to wear a monochrome outfit. An orange suit set, sky blue from head to toe, a combo of flared jeans, a t-shirt, and a red shirt, etc. The only rule here is to vary the textures to add depth and avoid the very boring flat look.

2 – Accessorize your outfit with a pretty scarf
Another easy tip to twist your spring look? Embrace the scarf as a fashion accessory. Available in multiple colors and prints, the silk square is a timeless piece that can be worn in a thousand ways.
The scarf is a bit of a detail that makes the difference, as long as you wear it well. Here are a few examples:
- Worn as a belt: with loose or flared jeans and a basic white t-shirt, your scarf as a belt will add a playful and fresh touch. A great way to twist a classic outfit.
- As an accessory in your hair: tied at the tip of a loose braid, around a bun or a ponytail, on a low chignon, retro style… The possibilities are numerous and will always add style.
- Tied around the neck: for a chic and elegant style, but effortlessly, it’s the option for you. Match your scarf with a soft knit, a cardigan, or even a jumpsuit to create contrast.
- Attached to a handbag: a good way to style a somewhat too classic bag. Add your favorite scarf and you won’t be able to do without it!
If you’re looking to add a little something to your outfit to beautify it, give it flavor, or that little “je ne sais quoi of spring,” this is the accessible, versatile, and aesthetic accessory you need in your closet.

3- Swap your denim for white jeans
As mentioned earlier, spring is the time to reconnect with lighter clothing, less bulky outfits, and also brighter shades. So, how can you not think of white jeans when you want to twist a spring look?
Controversial, white jeans have gradually become more democratized over the years, turning into a basic piece that most of us have in our closets and can pull out for any occasion.
White jeans are celebrated for their simplicity and authenticity. They are easy to wear and go with just about anything. But more importantly, they stand out from other denim and blue jeans due to their color. White creates the difference because it’s bright, simple, and soft. With white, you can allow yourself to match it with bolder colors or stronger pieces to create surprising combinations.

4- Think about the practice of layering but in a spring version
The practice of layering is recognized in winter because it keeps you warm. But did you know that you can also layer several pieces of clothing, even in spring?
We know that layering protects from the cold, but its benefits don’t stop there. What makes layering interesting is also its ability to add depth to an outfit. And this applies regardless of the season. By layering several clothing pieces, layers, and materials, you can accentuate contrast and volume.
It’s visually very interesting, and it instantly adds texture and richness to the outfit. In short, it energizes it.
A combo that works for nice days? A trench over a shirt and a t-shirt.

5 – Wear floral prints in all ways
Wearing flowers in spring is the best way to honor the season and give a fresh boost to your wardrobe style. But to upgrade your spring look, why not wear floral prints where you least expect them?
A handbag, a belt, a pair of socks, a pair of glasses… Think of all these small add-ons, these details, these accessories where you can sprinkle your flowers. You’ll see, it’s a subtle and easy way to elevate your outfit.

6 – Slip on a fringed jacket for a successful spring look
We continue with the spring jacket, but not just any jacket. The seventies-inspired jacket. Bold and vintage, this jacket comes in multiple cuts, colors, and versions today. With or without fringes, flared, long, short, patterned, solid, black, blue… It has modernized to adapt to the needs and codes of today’s fashion.
To give a pep to an outfit, wear it with basics like jeans, a t-shirt, or a white shirt and a pair of clogs. In this case, it’s the piece that will elevate the ensemble.
Otherwise, you can dare the total look in suede with the jacket paired with a suede bottom like a skirt or even pants. It’s bolder, but no less frank and stylish.
But where it will surprise you is when you pair it with other materials like linen, silk, or leather. This creates an interesting contrast by playing with textures. It adds depth and dimension.

7 – Twist your spring look by wearing a long denim skirt
While white jeans and trousers are always welcome for a spring look, we enjoy pulling out lighter pieces that flatter our legs. And when I think spring attire, I obviously mean skirts.
But then, which skirt to wear in spring? Well, to definitely add style to your outfit, you can bet on a skirt, the long denim skirt. Inspired by the 90s/2000s, this key piece finds its charm in its length that reaches the ankles and its flared cut.
You can wear it in several styles. In an oversized version, it will be very long and have a vintage vibe that we love. You can choose it split for a sexy side or frayed. In a DIY vein, you can customize it to give your outfit a unique touch. Patchwork, rhinestones, patches, or even logos… By letting your creativity flow, you will ensure you have a one-of-a-kind skirt.

8 – Dare to wear clogs
And we end with shoes, another essential piece of the female wardrobe. It must be said that as sunny days approach, the transition to spring shoes is often anticipated. We can finally ditch our chunky platform shoes and boots to reclaim lighter, seasonal footwear.
And when it comes to spring 2023 shoe trends, there’s one pair that has stood out for several seasons now: clogs. Made of leather and wood, clogs are a character piece that at first glance isn’t so easy to wear. However, if you pair them well, they’re the type of shoe that will undoubtedly give your outfit a stylish edge. For this, Pauline advises in another article to wear clogs harmoniously. Pair them with neutral tones or natural materials like linen, as the clogs are already the detail that makes the difference.
