(Image credit: Zara, Mango, Nordstrom) With spring approaching, new arrivals are flooding online retailers like Zara, Nordstrom, and Mango. While browsing these three, I noticed several items that exude elegance at a reasonable price. Regardless of the season, these websites are my go-to for finding high-end inspired pieces without breaking the bank. This spring, the new collections have sparked my creativity, leading me to compile a collection of outfit ideas to share, with hopes of inspiring anyone aiming to update their wardrobe. Whether you need an outfit for the office or a wedding, there’s something for everyone. Keep scrolling for five pre-spring outfit inspirations and links to shop for each item.
Outfit #1 (Image credit: Nordstrom, Zara, Mango) This outfit may become your go-to this spring, and it’s easy to see why. It’s not only stylish but is also suitable for a range of events like brunch with friends, date night, an evening at the museum, and even at the office. The combination of dark wash blue jeans and a white boatneck tank top creates a solid base. The burgundy suede jacket adds just the right amount of warmth, while the snakeskin-print heeled mules elevate the look, and the perforated East-West bag offers a refined finish.

Outfit #2 (Image credit: Mango, Nordstrom, Zara) For those looking to enhance their spring work attire, this is the ideal starting point. The gray trousers combined with a matching cropped jacket exude professionalism, while the blue striped button-down provides a refreshing alternative to the classic white blouse. And those black flats? They elevate the classic style with their pointed toe and rounded vamp. Although the mini navy suede bag may not fit your laptop, it adds a chic detail to your look, especially alongside a larger work bag.

Outfit #3 (Image credit: Nordstrom, Zara, Mango) No pre-spring outfit collection is complete without a trench coat or white jeans. This outfit combines both, featuring wide-leg jeans from Nordstrom alongside a funnel-neck trench coat from Mango. The airy green blouse provides a pop of color and lightness thanks to its sheer fabric, while the black flats with gold accents add a contrasting, edgy touch to the overall look.

Outfit #4 (Image credit: Zara, Mango, Nordstrom) One of the major trends for spring is bubble-hem shorts, prompting me to create an outfit around them, specifically using a new style from Zara that is sure to sell out quickly. Given that early spring may still bring cooler temperatures, I styled the shorts with a lightweight cardigan. I chose beige suede sandals to keep the color palette warm and neutral, complemented by sculptural bangles for added interest and personality in this casual ensemble.

Outfit #5 (Image credit: Mango, Nordstrom) With wedding season approaching, if you’ve received numerous invites and are short on outfit ideas, I have a chic yet affordable suggestion. Consider Mango's new black maxi dress, which makes a subtle impression with its ruched detailing, stylish asymmetric neckline, and elegant draping at the back. Due to the dress's refined nature, pair it simply with diamond stud earrings, a black leather shoulder bag, and strappy heels. This ensemble is suitable for a formal wedding in New York City or an outdoor celebration in Spain.
