4 trendy fashion pieces in the editorial test
Spring also brings exciting pieces – but which of them are really wearable in everyday life? 4 of our fashion editors have picked out their spring favorites.
Spring is here, how wonderful! While it’s still dancing a little between cool and higher temperatures, our wardrobe is also a little undecided. Put on a jacket or leave it at home? Everyone decides for themselves! We put four great pieces through their paces. These convinced us.
Velvety soft on my skin
Fashion piece: Cashmere ultralight top from Intimissimi
Price: about 40 euros
Can be combined with: The shirt with a boat neck made of modal and cashmere ultralight is best worn with knitted trousers or yoga pants. As a top under a cardigan, it can also be combined with jeans during the day.
Portability factor: The shirt is super thin and soft and hugs my body like a second skin. It’s perfect for rainy spring days on the couch, but also as part of my onion look when I need extra comfort. Due to the delicate material, my bra shows slightly under my shirt, which is why I usually combine it with a jacket.
Spring must-have because: I’ve been paying attention to the material composition when buying my clothes for a long time. The more plastic content, the more I sweat under my armpits. Modal and cashmere are both fibers that are breathable and keep me feeling fresh all day long. Especially in spring you are exposed to a wide variety of temperatures, which is why the onion look is mandatory and what can I say, the shirt is in constant use.
Cooler than leather
Fashion piece: Short jacket with leather effect in a used look from Mango
Price: 70 euros
Can be combined with: all effortlessly chic Scandi looks: maxi skirts made of fabric, jeans and balloon pants, with boot and mini skirt combinations. Simply with any look that can use a little coolness.
Portability factor: It doesn’t get any higher than that.
Spring must-have because: it’s the perfect no-brainer transitional jacket. It’s a welcome break in style with girly dresses and floral designs – and the ultimate statement with cool looks.
My favorite shoe for spring 2024
Fashion piece: Heelless ballet flats from Stradivarius
Price: 36 euros
Can be combined with: Blue jeans! My favorite combination at the moment consists of a playful blouse, wider-cut jeans and red heeled ballerinas. Add another red eye-catcher, such as red painted fingernails, and the look is perfect.
Portability factor: No pressure, no cutting: you feel like you’re walking on clouds in these shoes.
Spring must-have because: Red accents enhance any simple (office) look and create real spring feelings on dark days.
All I see is red
Fashion piece: Asymmetric shoulder bag from Anthropologie
Price: about 99 euros
Can be combined with: I like to combine this beautiful bag with a denim jacket in dark blue. But the red handbag also adds an eye-catcher to evening styles in black.
Portability factor: enormously! When do you not have your bag with you? The medium size is also super practical for shopping in the city in a relaxed manner.
Spring must-have because: The color red can currently be seen everywhere! The trend piece will, I promise, not only accompany you during the spring days.
