They're also versatile and can be styled with a range of items already in her closet. Keep scrolling for Wright's list of fashionable spring staples, including visual inspiration from Wright and shopping picks if you want to add a few of her must-haves to your wardrobe.
Pink Everything
On Wright: Self-Portrait dress
"Soft, pretty pink is having a moment. There are many elevated options, like the dress I'm wearing above. For something more casual, try a crisp white button-down with a pink cashmere sweater over your shoulders. I'm even seeing pool slides and earrings in pink!" — Wright
Skirts
On Wright: Vince skirt
"Skirts are trending again this season, so find one or two that you love, and it'll instantly upgrade your spring outfits. A current alternative to jeans, different lengths (shorter, knee-length, or midi) give you plenty of options. Try adding a classic white one, which is versatile and super stylish." — Wright
Ecru/White Denim
On Wright: Mother jeans
"Ecru denim always reads sophisticated!" — Wright
Ballet Flats/Flat Mary Janes
On Wright: Chanel flats
"Recently while I was in Palm Beach, I noticed many stylish women wearing ballet flats (instead of sandals) with dresses, skirts, and even shorts. They're super chic and work with every spring outfit!" — Wright
Printed Dresses
On Wright: Alemais dress
"If you're going anywhere sunny, having a fun printed dress on hand is key. For prints and florals, I love Farm Rio or Alemais—they're perfect for any vacation and for many occasions and events." — Wright
Cropped Trench Coats
On Wright: Frame trench
"A shorter trench is your new go-to! Trench coats are always a spring staple, but this year, cropped versions are the way to go. They're equally as versatile and will elevate all your denim outfits." — Wright
Butter Yellow
On Wright: Sézane dress
"[This is] another color that's having a moment … and so easy to incorporate into your wardrobe! Try a casual butter-yellow sweater over your shoulders, an easy spring dress, or really anything that catches your eye. Seen all over the runways, it's the perfect color this season!" — Wright
Denim Jackets
On Wright: Rag & Bone jacket
"This is my favorite piece of all time! I can't imagine a spring outfit without a denim jacket. It's a true staple, and this year, an updated one will work magic on all your outfits. Whether you prefer something looser like this Rag & Bone sweatshirt style or more fitted, the fact is you'll wear it all the time." — Wright
