7 Ways to Turn Spring's Biggest Trends Into Comfortable Outfits
Post-lockdown outfits may be on everyone's minds right now (believe us, we're equally excited), but if there's one thing a year of quarantine taught us, it's that comfort reigns supreme. We're still eager to try out less wfh-friendly trends like revenge heels and fancy tops, but that doesn't mean being comfortable is overrated. If you're still trying to figure out what to do with all of those sneakers and athleisure pieces you've accumulated over the months, let us help you out.
Since we're slowly getting back to in-person catchups, lunch dates, and chill weekend picnics, you may have the urge to change out of the full sweatsuit from time to time, and step it up sartorially. The good news–you don't have to sacrifice comfort to do so. We selected seven of the biggest spring trends and turned them into easy, low-key outfits to wear whether you're in the comfort of your home, out at a casual meetup, and everything in between. Keep scrolling to shop them all.

Indya Brown is a fashion editor, stylist, and writer living in Los Angeles. While going to school at Columbia University in New York City, she got her feet wet in the fashion industry interning at Elle magazine, Harper's Bazaar, and New York magazine's The Cut. After graduating in 2016, she joined The Cut as a fashion assistant, eventually working her way up to fashion editor. There, she worked on a multitude of projects, including styling inbook feature stories for New York magazine's print issue, writing and pitching market stories for The Cut, and serving as fashion lead for The Cut's branded content. While New York has been her home for over 10 years, she moved to Los Angeles in the midst of the pandemic in 2020 for a new chapter. Now she is a fashion market editor for Who What Wear, focusing on emerging designers, rising trends on and off the internet, interior design, and BIPOC creatives and brands. Aside from her duties as a fashion market editor, Brown is also a freelance stylist and writer, working on national print and video commercial campaigns for Sephora, The Independent, and Cadillac. Her bylines also include Harper's Bazaar, Vox, and The New York Times. But once the computer goes down and the emails turn off, she's likely eating her way through Koreatown, hunting down vintage furniture, scoping out new outrageous nail designs to try, or taking a hot cycling class.
