What to wear in spring: 10 new wardrobe hits
Although Spring is still barely felt in the air (the snowfall interferes a little), the time of the beloved trench and other light things will surely come sooner or later. Most of the outfits for the next couple of months will probably be found when analyzing cabinets and general cleaning - and everything else can be bought or sent by peeping into our list.

Panama with ribbons
Panamas are triumphantly returned. This time, the designers provided the hats with ties: they will come in handy, since sudden gusts of wind are the main enemy of any hat. The modernization touched not only the classic hikers of the hiker and the fisherman, who got the ribbons, but also the wide-brimmed models, which are proposed to be worn, tying the ribbons around the neck.

Fitted Hats
The mix of a cap comforter, a swimming cap, and the bonnets characteristic of a 20's head - approximately like this this season designers present the perfect headdress. It’s hard not to agree with them: dense materials like faux fur and wool protect the head and ears from the wind and look great with just about everything. We advise you to try on with a voluminous coat-cocoon at the floor (curtsy to the side of those same 20s) and a short dutik jacket.

Green color
Rich colors inevitably come to the mind of designers when it comes to spring collections. This year there will be a lot of green in abundance - from saturated grassy to barely visible marsh. The easiest move is a monophonic dress, an advanced version is a complex blouse with pleats and patterns.

Pseudo Wedding Dresses
Wedding fashion is going through hard times: the number of marriages has noticeably decreased in the United States over the past few years. But pseudo-wedding dresses, such as would be suitable for the ceremony and for the publication after work, were added on the catwalks. The best version turned out at Batsheva, who decorated the laconic model with the patterns of the red marker.

Bicycle bags
A cyclist's bag - a weighty messenger on a wide belt that is convenient to throw over his shoulder - is useful both in the city and on trips. A model made of bright fabric will look great with a dress in a small flower, and a versatile leather bag with a lot of pockets is suitable for a small laptop.

Square Toe Shoes
Square noses from the 80s are returning - today they can be seen on ankle boots and on open shoes like mules or sandals. The latter are perfect for “beginners”: you can literally wear them with everything - you just have to wait for the right weather.

Wallets
The hypertrophied version of the wallet with cross locks, which your grandmother probably had, this spring can be found in Simone Rocha, Rosantica and many others. Designers are advised not to limit themselves neither in rhinestones, nor in beads, nor in prints. For minimalists, there is a Jacquemus microbag.

Bleached denim
Another sign of the 80s - wrenches and bleached denim - this spring has returned to its original form: look for dresses of a bustier, midi skirts and wide trousers from faded jeans in a mass market and at profile brands. And wear it boldly with things of any other shades of denim.

Things with huge bows
Hypertrophied bows that fall from the shoulders or replace the jacket floor are another fresh spring trend. We like it with its versatility: the bow jacket is easy to imagine anywhere. The most universal purchase is a belt-bow like the Dovima Paris model, which can be fastened anywhere.

Bicycle Sunglasses
Sports glasses, as if borrowed from the participants of the cycle track, are gaining popularity: this spring they can be found not only from sport brands, but also in the mass market. That, however, does not interfere with visiting the nearest “Decathlon” or “Sportmaster” in order to choose not only an ultrafashionable, but also an inexpensive pair.
