Full Skirt

On Wright: Aritzia skirt

"Talk about a current wardrobe update! Skirts are having a moment, and a style that's longer and more full will give everything in your closet a refresh. I've been wearing mine with a button-up top and sandals, and sometimes, I throw on a belt just to mix things up." — Wright

Wide-Leg Denim

On Wright: Paige jeans

"If you purchase one pair of jeans this season, make it a wide-leg style! Wide-leg denim gives all our jeans outfits an update. I wear them with sandals and slingbacks and sneakers if I'm running errands. A lighter, faded wash is perfect for spring and summer." — Wright

Shirtdress

On Wright: Quince dress

"Longer shirtdresses are perfect for this time of year. They're comfortable, easy to style, and you can wear them with every kind of shoe, from flat sandals to taller wedge sandals to sneakers." — Wright

Belted Denim Jacket

On Wright: Spanx jacket

"Current status of a denim jacket: in. This classic is a key piece in our wardrobes, so update it by grabbing a belted style. Some are slimmer fitting, and some are oversized, so go with your preference. Maybe even try the double-denim look!" — Wright

Trousers

On Wright: Spanx trousers and vest

"Trousers are another item that will level up your wardrobe. For spring, look for linen styles or lighter colors. I think trousers look best with any style of shoe. Although, I love them with a cool sneaker like Sambas for more casual days." — Wright

Bomber Jacket

On Wright: Theory jacket

"These days, I'm pairing a bomber-style jacket with skirts, longer-length denim, over dresses—it all works. A bomber jacket is super versatile, and there are many options right now, so find one you like and wear it with everything!" — Wright

Denim Skirt

On Wright: L'Agence skirt

"Denim skirts are still popular this season, and it's easy to see why! Whether you prefer a longer midi length or a shorter style, it adds relevancy to your wardrobe by giving it an instant update. A denim skirt looks great with a sweater, a button-down, a blazer, or even double denim!" — Wright
