As we stand at the cusp of a new season, my mind has gone into overdrive with spring outfit planning. Entirely inspired by the new-found sun, I'm eager for my wardrobe to represent the lighter and brighter energy around me. To get the ball rolling, I turned to several of my favourite celebrities to get their take on springtime styling, but I quickly realised that I didn't have to look far beyond Elsa Hosk.

Taking a deep dive into her Instagram page reveals a vat of spring styling inspiration. From the elegant spring-ready shoes she's already slipped into to the lightweight layers she's reaching for instead of wool coats—Hosk's spring-time selection is well worth a perusal. Read on to discover Elsa Hosk's spring capsule wardrobe below, and the pieces I'll be weaving into mine for the month ahead and beyond.

Style Notes: In line with the season's favourite silhouette, Hosk has swapped her baggy jeans for a chicly flared style this season. Pairing it with a structured blazer, the model made her casual jeans feel so much more elevated, but, these jeans would also look super chic with a fresh white tee or lightweight knits

Style Notes: With warm weather and clear skies comes the ballet flats revival, and I couldn't be more excited for this to get underway. Styling a metallic silver pair from Miu Miu, the model wore hers with a long-line pencil skirt and a sweeping trench. The result? A highly chich ensemble that was well equipped for spring's warmer days.

Style Notes: The easiest way to ensure a chic silhouette, a skirt set feels polished, playful and perfect for in-between weather days. While the weather remains slightly chilly, opt for a knitted set à la Hosk, before swapping to a light cotton two-piece come summer.
