Dress it up by wearing a skirt and heels, wear it casually with jeans or cargo pants, or style it over an oversized button down shirt.

A white tank bodysuit is a good go-to for those warmer spring days when you are in a bind and unsure of what to wear. Just throw on a white bodysuit, baggy jeans, and a stylish jacket of your choosing. However, if you are feeling extra girly pair a it with a floral skirt and cardigan. Whatever look you may be going for, a white tank bodysuit has got you covered.

Having a white tank top is essential for any girls’ wardrobe because it is by far the most versatile piece. Wear it casually with a pair of baggy jeans, if you’re on your way to work throw a blazer over it. Have a special occasion to attend? Pair it with a bodycon midi skirt and a classy jacket.

blazer, biker jacket, trench coat
 7. Blazer
Blazers are the total “it girl” jacket and rightly so, there are endless amount of different outfit combinations you can pair with it. So versatile and so chic you will be bound to get all the compliments. My favorite way to wear a blazer is oversized and unlike the basic work-wear style, I love to pair it with sports-wear. What do I mean by this? I mean styling it with a good pair of leggings and sports bra or a onesie, my favorite brands to by these kinds of outfits are Alo Yoga or Free People. Seriously, it makes for such a comfortable yet stylish outfit.
 8. Biker Jacket
Every girl needs a good faux leather jacket, especially during the slightly cooler months. These are one of my favorite outerwear pieces to wear because they have the ability to enhance an outfit significantly. The best way to wear these jackets is oversized. So, whether your getting ready for a casual day out or preparing for a hot date, the biker jacket is a must-have staple piece to own. Pair it with a simple white tank and boyfriend jeans for an everyday outfit or a bodycon mini dress for a more special occasion.
 9. Trench Coat
A trench coat is a must have for any time of season when the weather is on the cooler side. It pretty much completes an outfit as a whole, meaning little effort is needed when wearing the trench coat. Seriously, you can be wearing the most basic outfit, throw on a trench jacket, you are a fashion icon. I love to see these styled with a onsie and tennis shoes for a casual, ‘that-girl’ type of outfit.
jeans, mini skirt, cargo pants, midi skirt
 10. Baggy Jeans
Jeans are, of course, a staple that every wardrobe needs, however, personally, I find them to be boring and uncomfortable. Go-to pieces should not be dreadful to wear. What is the fix to this problem you may ask? Baggy jeans. Ever since I tried this new way to wear pants, I have never looked back, you won’t ever see me in skinny jeans again. Not only are oversized jeans more comfortable, I find them to be more stylish as well. The best way to wear these kinds of pants are with a smaller top such as a fitted tank, cropped tee, or a corset.
 11. Mini Skirt
What is a spring capsule wardrobe without including skirts? This one from Zara just screams spring. I love seeing women rock mini skirts because they give a feminine touch to any simple outfit. A basic top and shoes with minimal jewelry would be best paired with this piece so the skirt can do all the talking.
 12. Cargo Pants
We have reached my absolute favorite form of bottoms. Cargo pants. Offering both versatility and comfort, cargo pants can be styled with a wide range of outfits as well as they can be worn throughout the year. Additionally, they have the ability to easily make an outfit go from a 1 to a 10 instantly. These bottoms are simple yet ridiculously stylish, pair them with any top and you’ve got the coolest outfit. Jaded London has some of the best cargo pants, however if you’re wanting a collection of these bottoms like me, check this post I wrote about all the best places to by these pants: Trend Alert: Cargo Pants. Buy at least one pair, I promise you won’t regret it.
 13. Midi Skirt
The midi skirt is a great transitioning staple piece especially when the weather warms up. It is perfect for when the temperatures arise but are still not the warmest. These would be beautifully paired with a cropped sweater and boots for a feminine, spring outfit.

Floral dress, long sleeve dress, onesie, slip dress
 14. Floral Dress
A floral dress is the ultimate one piece that every girl needs to welcome the spring season. It could easily be dressed up or down, layered or or worn by itself. This floral piece from For Love And Lemons is an absolute need, it is such a stunning design that can be paired with sneakers or heels, layered with a cardigan or oversized leather jacket for a masculine touch. Either way, this is a gorgeous spring dress that you will definitely want to put on your wish list for the upcoming season.
 15. Long Sleeve Dress
Shall the weather continue to be on the cooler side, a long sleeve maxi dress would be the go-to if you’re wanting to still wear a dresses. Not to mention this design from Skims will probably be one of the most comfortable clothing pieces that you own. Literally, anything and everything made from Skims is made so fashionable without the sacrifice of comfort. This dress is so feminine and hugs the body in all the right places with the softest fabric. Once again, it can be dressed up or down. It is a total win all around, I am telling you, girl, this is a must-have item for your wardrobe.
 16. Onesie (Catsuit)
The onesie piece has been all of the rave recently and, honestly, IÂ can understand why, it can be paired with so many different items and is so easy to just throw on and go. The onesie itself can be worn as an outfit paired with chunky, lace-up boots and mid-rise socks or tennis shoes. If it’s cold outside you have the option to pair it with a trench coat, oversized jacket, cropped puffer jacket, or oversized cropped or non-cropped sweatshirt. The options are literally endless!
  17. Slip Dress
Slip dresses are for sure a wardrobe staple because, again, they go with so many pieces. Especially for spring, pairing a dainty slip dress with a cropped sweater over it would make for a cute outfit. You also have to option to wear a layering shirt underneath with knee high boots for extra warmth or layer it with a cardigan or oversized jacket. Either of which way, the outfits you can create with slip dresses will be sure to bring you all of the compliments.
mid rise platform boots, converse, chelsea boots, heeled sandals, loafers
 18. Mid Rise Platform Boots
Mid rise platform boots are the perfect pair of shoes for the spring time when the temperatures are a bit chilly. However, the Naked Wolfe platform boots are the elite form of boots that can drastically boost an outfit’s appearance. Pair them with almost anything and you will be sure to turn heads and gain all of the compliments on the street. Not only are they highly stylish but they do not lack comfort which I think all of us girls can agree is a major bonus. If there is one form of boot that you need within your capsule wardrobe it is the platform boot.
 19. Converse
You can never forget a good pair of sneakers and Converse have been my all time favorite form of sneaker. They are easy to slip on, give any outfit a casual style, and is a go-to on days when you just want to be comfortable and laid-back. Ever since they came out with platforms, I have been obsessed, however, if that’s not your scene then the simple flat versions are just as cool and cursory.
 20. Chelsea Boots
Not only are chelsea boots perfect for the spring but they can also be worn throughout the fall and winter seasons which makes them a versatile and timeless pair of shoe. I love to see these styled with dresses, skirts, and baggy jeans, they are chic yet still casual. You will definitely want to have these within your everyday capsule wardrobe.
 21. Heeled Sandals
A must-wear to date night, heeled sandals are a classy form of shoe that pairs well with dresses of any style or design and skirts. Although, if you’re more of a pants girl, then styling these with faux leather pants or wide-leg jeans would also make for a great outfit for a night out.
 22. Loafers
Casual with a touch of sophistication, the loafer is yet another essential pair of shoe. They are an excellent choice for work or school days as they are classy yet comfortable. I love to style these with jeans, trousers, or mini skirts.
hat, tote bag, bandana, sunglasses, simple earring, statement earring, belt, cross body bag
 23. Baseball Cap
Accessories are a must to make an outfit complete. They are the detail as well as the finishing touch and can be styled in numerous amounts of ways. For example, a baseball cap, these pair well with a basic outfit as they are a bit mainstream themselves. It is best styled with jeans, a simple tee, and oversized jacket. If you are really going for casual and comfy, a baseball cap can finish off a cropped graphic tee and joggers kind of outfit. If you want to dress more for work, style a cap with an oversized blazer, basic cropped tee, and trousers.
 24. Tote Bag
The Tote Bag is a look within itself and can enhance even the most boring and basic form of outfit. It is definitely a bag you will want to splurge on.
 25. Bandanas
I love bandanas because they can be styled in countless ways. Use them as accessories, tops, or sarongs, no matter which way you go they are a definite must have. Bandanas can create several different tops that can be paired with any bottom, they can act as hair accessories, jewelry, or added detailing on bags, need I say more?
 26. Sunglasses
Choose the right sunglasses and they can instantly make you as well as your outfit look cooler and more put together. Do yourself a favor and splurge on at least one pair of luxurious pair of sunnies, you won’t regret it.
 27. Minimal/Statement Jewelry Pieces
Onto the jewelry pieces. You will want to have two sections for this form of accessory: simple and classy pieces as well as items that will make a statement and really show off an outfit. I could not recommend these accessories enough. You can have a wardrobe filled with basics, as long as you have a collection of jewelry to pair with them, then, girl, you will turn heads. Try to have a decent amount of both dainty and bold necklaces, bracelets and earrings, those are the items of most importance.
 28. Belts
I think we can all agree that having a belt or a couple of belts within our wardrobes is self explanatory. Having belts that best suit you and your style will ultimately enhance the bottoms you wear as well as add a complete and over all put together look.
 Cross Body Bag
Owning a good quality cross body bag is an essential accessory piece because it is durable and holds a lot of necessities. This one from Amazon is so cute and luxurious minus the high price tag, it is a definite must buy for the near future!
