Spring brings warmer days and blooming flowers. It's time to give your wardrobe a seasonal touch. Bashanta is all about embracing colours and light fabrics which makes for an ideal combination for both comfort and a trendy boho chic aesthetic. Whether you are revamping your entire closet or just looking for a few pieces to mix and match over the season, these 7 must-have items will have you ready for everything from casual outings to festive celebrations.
Vibrant sarees
When you think of spring, you think of meadows and flowy silhouettes. It is the perfect time to bring out sarees with a refreshing twist of tradition and the spring spirit. Light and breathable fabrics like cotton, linen, and georgette are ideal. Playful pastel shades or bright hues are all colours that reflect the joy of spring.
Soft and pastel floral designs, and floral motifs in shades of pink, lavender, or peach —colours that embody the charm of the season. You will be sure to feel like a modern-day fairy with a fresh, feminine look.
With that being said, do not shy away from brighter shades as bold pinks, greens, and tangerines are excellent choices for the season as well for both work and daytime celebrations.
Floral dresses
Floral dresses capture the same flowy aesthetic as a saree and help keep you light and breezy. Whether it's a sundress or a flowy maxi dress, these bring comfort and style.
Light, airy fabrics such as cotton or linen help to keep cool and floral designs ranging from soft pastels to bright, bold prints, make the dresses and motifs perfect for almost every casual day.
Bright-hued tops and blouses
Think lemon yellows, fiery oranges, mint greens, and sky blues — these colours might sound challenging to style but when you are pairing such a colourful blouse with basic jeans or a flowy maxi skirt in a solid colour, your outfit stands out.
For casual everyday wear or an outing with friends and family, cropped tops and t-shirts are ideal for pairing with high-waisted jeans or skirts. These tops can be simple yet striking when you opt for ones that have vivid colours and fun prints.
On the flip side, brightly-coloured blouses in silk, satin, or chiffon add sophistication and can be a good outfit for work. With the right accessories, they can help you effortlessly transition from the office to evening events.
Maxi skirts and pants
Nothing speaks of fashionable comfort more than maxi skirts and wide-legged pants. These pieces are not only versatile for any season but incredibly stylish.
Skirts in floral prints, tie-dye patterns, or polka dots — when paired with a simple blouse, or even a denim jacket — offer an effortless and chic look.
A basic pair of black wide-legged pants ought to be a staple in everyone's wardrobe but consider expanding your colour range to reflect the hues of spring. You can easily dress up depending on the event, creating a perfect balance.
Pastel-coloured jumpsuits and rompers
Jumpsuits and rompers in soft pastels can be incredibly chic and these one-piece wonders make it easy to look put-together with minimal effort. These are good to have in your wardrobe for those days when you may be running late or simply cannot figure out how to put your outfit together.
A pastel pink or mint green jumpsuit can take you from brunch to dinner with ease with playful ornamentation like laces and ruffles.
Lightweight cardigans and jackets
Although spring is all about warmth, the nights can still get chilly at times. A lightweight cardigan or a cropped denim jacket can be perfect for layering over dresses or tops. Light blue denim jackets with floral patterns, neutral shades, or soft pastels are bound to accentuate your outfit instead of dulling it down.
Statement accessories
Accessories are always an effective way to bring personality to any outfit. Chunky jewellery, brightly-coloured handbags, and colourful scarves strategically inject fun into your outfits to add a burst of playfulness and colour.
A light scarf or shawl in a bold print or pastel shade can effortlessly complement a saree or a simple dress adding a layer of practicality and sophistication.
Don't skip on the footwear. Whether it's a pair of flat sandals in soft coral, wedges in bright yellow, or strappy heels in a fun floral print, footwear can set the tone for your entire look.
Lastly, while basking in the sunshine, do not forget oversized sunglasses or a wide-brimmed straw hat for a chic, hipster vibe.
Spring fashion embraces fluidity balancing timeless elegance with modern edge. Playful textures, and bold yet sophisticated hues redefine transitional dressing. Make this the season to celebrate blending airy fabrics, fresh palettes, and effortlessly chic silhouettes.
