At last, spring has finally arrived.
Days are longer, mornings are lighter, and we're slowly but surely transitioning from chunky knits and hats and scarves, to lighter layers and transitional outfits.
There's no time like the present, therefore, to give your wardrobe a refresh. And eBay's brand outlet is the ultimate place to shop.
On one website, you can give your entire closet a spring clean. It houses some of the most coveted brands on the planet from Karen Millen to River Island, with pieces up to 70% off RRP.
What should I buy for Spring 2024?
I think having a good selection of versatile pieces is the key to nailing spring shopping. Core pieces that can be styled in ample different ways, particularly as we're likely to be heading out day to night.
Plus, let's be realistic, the weather in the UK is often neither here nor there, so purchase pieces that can be layered if it suddenly gets cooler, or if an unforeseen rain shower hits.
If you like things that are trend-led, infuse your wardrobe with touches of rose print, animal print or red, to keep your outfits on the money for SS24.
How We Chose:
- Brand: I chose pieces from cult-adored brands that are available on eBay's brand outlet.
- Style: I scoured the site to find pieces that are either timeless or adhere to trends of this season. I've also found a variety of pieces, from trousers to jackets to pyjamas. I have also tried to find pieces that are versatile enough for you to create multiple outfits, whatever the daily weather may bring.
- Budget: Though eBay's brand outlet has a whopping up to 70% off RRPs, I've still tried to find items at a variety of price points to suit all budgets.
The Bridal Piece
RI Studio Ruched Slim Fit
River Island
Brides-to-be, I have just found the ultimate pre-wedding dinner/hen party/engagement drinks dress for £10. I'm obsessed with the ruching at the centre of the body, making this piece look so much more expensive than it is.
The Tote Bag
Straw Medium Tote Bag
Vero Moda
There's nothing like a straw bag to get us in the mood for warmer weather. The structured shape of this elevates it over the usual tote, and makes it appropriate for all occasions from day to night.
The Girly Dress
White Vintage Flower Collar Short Sleeve Mini Dress
Glamorous
Ultra-feminine mini dresses never leave spring fashion agendas. I love this ditsy floral piece because it's so on-trend for right now. Pair with some calf-high suede cowboy boots and a cardigan.
The Everyday Jeans
High Waist Wide-Leg Jeans
Marks & Spencer
My white jeans are the hardest working item in my wardrobe, and they're going to be doing overtime in spring. Whether you pair them with a silk shirt and ballet flats or a cosy knit and trainers, having a pair for those 'I don't know what to wear' days is a must.
The Cool-Girl Shirt
White Pearl Collared Top
River Island
A white shirt is a transitional season must-have. Plus, pearls were everywhere on the SS24 runways, therefore you're bang on the money with this piece.
The Holiday Halterneck
Knit Midi Dress Black Halter Neck
River Island
A little black dress is essential all year round, and this knit is the ultimate holiday halterneck. Wear to the beach or for walking through the cobbled streets of Spain.
The Romantic Blouse
Pink Heart Print Top
River Island
Spring in a blouse. Romantic patterns are a major trend this SS24 season, and this bold pink cut-out number is cheerful, interesting and the perfect 'nice top' to pair with your jeans.
The Silk Shirt
Satin Shirt
Topshop
In case you haven't noticed by now, red is the colour of the moment, and has been since last autumn. We love a silk shirt here at HF, and this one will add a sophisticated splash of colour to any look.
The Statement Trousers
Joey Wide-Leg Trousers
Dancing Leopard
Animal print is major right now, and these trousers are perfect for giving the 'mob wife' trend a spring-fuelled makeover. pair with a white t-shirt, ballet flats and your favourite designer handbag for a fashion editor-approved off-duty look.
Wrap Dress
Dancing Leopard
Add some dopamine-inducing colour to your spring wardrobe with this ditsy floral dress. Pair with sheer tights and knee-high boots when the weather isn't quite playing ball.
Perfect Polka dots
Wrap Mini Dress Cream Spot Print
River Island
Ever since Jennifer Lawrence wore polka dots to the Oscars, they've been at the top of my spring wish list. I love this silky wrap dress that is the perfect balance of feminine and flirty.
The Statement Set
Snake Print Long Sleeve Pyjamas
Dancing Leopard
Honestly - this top would be an everyday shirt for me, but the deep pink-ish tones make it utterly evening-appropriate. Pair with jeans or a skirt and some metallic heels for a soirée-approved ensemble.
The Transitional Jacket
Harvey Women's Reversible Jacket
White Stuff
Padded jackets are in season for spring, time and time again. I love the contrasting peachy tones against the navy on this piece. Plus it's reversible, with the option to wear a chic milky white colourway.
