Spring Ahead: How to Shop for Your Spring Wardrobe

Zip-up hoodies, pullovers, and light sweaters, five fundamentals to have on hand for spring's unpredictable weather patterns.

Why Transition Pieces Matter

It's never too early to think about a spring wardrobe with staples that can withstand this season's unpredictable weather patterns. Having the right transition pieces on hand is essential. Here are five fundamentals worth having in the closet this spring.

1. Zip-Up Hoodie

Zip-up sweatshirts are a spring staple. They're easy to tote around, and the zipper makes them practical for taking on and off easily throughout the day. There are also a few ways to style one: wear exposed layers underneath, tie it across the waist, or zip it up entirely. However the day unfolds, a zip-up hoodie completes the outfit.

2. Hoodies

Pull-over hoodies bring more of an athletic, laid-back style. They're comfortable and warm, yet still stylish enough to wear day or night. Trying both fitted and oversized styles this season is a great way to play around with proportions.

Quick answer

At Label Shopper, the five spring wardrobe fundamentals are a zip-up hoodie, a pull-over hoodie, a lightweight pullover, a light-colored button-down shirt, and a light sweater, all built to handle unpredictable spring temperature swings.

3. Pullovers

For anyone who enjoys outdoor activities or athleisure, pullovers are a great addition to any closet. This lightweight layer is especially nice to have when working out or running outside. Bright colors add an extra sporty feel to the whole look.

4. Button-Down Shirts

For outdoorsy plans, a nice button-down shirt helps stay semi-bundled up and protected without overheating. Since it's springtime, lighter material and color are the way to go, keeping things from feeling weighed down or too hot.

5. Light Sweaters

Light sweaters are perfect for spring, and their simple silhouettes pair well with blue jeans or skirts. For a cool-girl vibe, a black turtleneck tucked into sleek dark-wash jeans with black booties is a strong go-to. For something more fun and girly, a pink turtleneck with ruffles at the base of the shirt and sleeves, paired with light-washed jeans, brings a softer feel.
