Yes, trench coats are a spring basic, but this year, they feel much more like a statement piece to behold thanks to a detachable cape and its modern silhouette. Throw yours on with a pair of straight leg jeans, pointed-toe pumps, and an embellished bag for an easy five-star outfit.

Stacked boots are back in a major way. Not only is the head-turning trend sure to score extra compliments, but it also adds more coverage for outfits with shorter hemlines or fun slits—a style tip that will come in handy for transitional weather dressing.

If you’re looking for color trends to lean into, pistachio took the lead during New York Fashion Week. Mix and match pastel pieces with neutrals like a brown suede jacket. Or turn the color volume up with a prismatic scarf.
