Buying guide: The 10 hero pieces of spring

As a fashion editor, the most common question I get is, « What would you buy? » This, along with color combos, is a big focus among my girlfriends each season. With limited budgets and a push for responsible shopping, creating monthly wish lists has become key.

So, this is how I tend to analyze the term hero piece often, even over the phone or through messages . More or less all of you have made the right choices in the necessary basics , so we have a basis for the wardrobe of each season. What we lack are those small additions, all those statement elements that will come to complete our ensembles by giving a twist, also known as hero pieces. A « hero » outfit doesn’t have to be as boring as you think, because each season has its own hero pieces, depending on the prevailing trends and aesthetics.

So let’s analyze this spring’s hero pieces together? You know very well that quiet luxury is a trend that has now become a favorite of most designers. So monochromatic colors, strict lines and bold cut outs will be the main features of spring’s tailored items. Jackets, shirts and evening tops move in minimalist lines.

The midi safari skirts will be a hero piece that you will wear both now and in the coming summer. Yves Saint Laurent provided the first inspo and all our other favorite brands followed. In the accessories section, flats are the ultimate hero pair, while a mini shoulder bag with classic elements and a girly shade will become your go-to bag for the coming months.
