If You're In Your Thirties, Here Are 27 Chic, Lightweight Pieces You'll Want In Your Spring Closet
A corset lace-up sundress that kind of reminds me of Gabriella's finale dress in High School Musical when in red, tbh. It's lightweight and flowy, and — wait for it — it looks extremely similar to the House of CB version that costs over $200 👀. A two-piece casual set more comfortable than me on my couch watching TRL way back when (so, comfortable). It comes complete with a short-sleeved button-down and matching drawstring shorts. Plus, the pattern options are giving ~vacation~ which I KNOW you're in need of! An affordable, Lululemon-esque longline sports bra featuring built-in padding, meaning you don't need to wear a bra. I repeat, NO BRA NEEDED! If you're like me and throw your bra across the room like a shotput Olympic champion when you get home... just get this top now. Oh and you can hike, work out, and do yoga comfortably in it too, but you know, minor detail in comparison. A Levi's classic denim jacket with no fancy frills but that brings all the effortless style you can imagine — the key to easy styling. This timeless piece has four pockets, a slightly cropped cut for style points, and the versatility to wear layered with a hoodie on a grocery run or a tulle skirt in front of the Eiffel Tower. A pair of durable, comfortable classic white sneakers because these days, I refuse to hear my dogs bark for the sake of a cute but uncomfortable logo or brand name. With these shoes, you'll get style, comfort, and the versatility of having a great white shoe that goes with ~everything~. And yes, reviewers rave they're extremely lightweight, too. A flowy tiered dress you'll love if your style inspo was Jennifer Coolidge in Legally Blonde *and* Jennifer Coolidge in The White Lotus. It's called range, people! And this sweet and simple dress truly has it. Some stretchy wide-leg jeans that look sooo old school with the cutest button details in front, the ultra-high waist, and the adorable straight-leg fit. If Mandy Moore would have rocked these in her 'Candy' era, that's immediate permission that you can, too! We don't do plain and simple over here, not even with our denim. A pair of super lightweight ruffled elastic shorts — something you can easily throw on and go but will still have that element of chicness you're looking for. A drawstring bodycon dress because it's cute, comfortable, AND the perfect amount of thickness for a nice spring day. The high neckline is gorge, but my favorite part is the adjustable ruching on each side. A well-constructed satin midi skirt that'll fit so well you'll think you're being Punk'd. Don't worry — no Ashton Kutcher jump scares, just a comfortable elastic waistband and soft-to-touch, lightweight material for you to enjoy all season long. A smocked mini dress worthy of every romantic picnic, bestie brunch, and exciting vacation in your future. It's *incredibly* comfortable and stretchy, so much so that many reviewers consider it the perfect "grow with me" dress during pregnancy! A versatile floral mesh top with a mock neck and long sleeves, making it *perfect* for springtime layering! Wear this beauty under your favorite dress or on top of a basic spaghetti strap tank, and you'll be bound to have heads turning and people asking, "Where did you get that top!?" Many reviewers even compare it to a much pricier brand that shall not be named 👀. A button-down blouse because you can wear it on its own, as a cover-up, as a light layer — really, the options are endless. It's a classic piece you need in your closet, no matter the season. A breezy long-sleeve crochet swimsuit cover-up so that you're prepared to hit the beach or the pool as soon as the warm weather arrives — no time shall be wasted! Now grab your copy of Britney's The Woman In Me memoir to read for the third time, but this time... ~stylishly~ poolside. A pair of chic striped linen pants worthy of being worn as a pool cover-up, but they're honestly *so* much more. Wear them running errands, on a coffee date, while you're singing Mariah Carey-oke — anything! Or a pair of affordable drawstring wide-leg pants that give a similar vibe and come in solid colors. The relaxed fit of these linen-blend beauties will make them your spring go-to from now on. A square-neck top feautring buttery smooth "smoke cloud" fabric and beautiful spring-worthy color options that'll make you want to buy multiple. It's the perfect choice on a nice warm evening — phew I can't wait for those! A stylish and breathable off-shoulder jumpsuit you can wear while relaxing at home, but easily throw a classic blazer on top when you've got an important meeting. With the jogger-style bottom, you're sure to be comfortable and (effortlessly) cute all day long. A dreamy, airy V-neck linen dress that'll last you yearssss to come. This Etsy shop specializes in clothing that'll never go out of style and will last through seasons and seasonal trends. This may be a future dress your kid will steal out of your closet to wear! A pair of high-waisted flowy pants sure to be your go-to all spring long. The split hem and the wide leg make it an easy choice. (And who wants to squeeze into tight skinny jeans anyway?) A lightweight rickrack-trim sun dress you can wear to the garden wedding, the baby shower, the tropical vacation, and any other warm weather ~events~ that's got you booked and busy this spring! The adorable trim really is the perfect touch, don't ya think? AND a breezy top-and-shorts set if you're just as obsessed with this trim as Bella was obsessed with Edward (IYKYK). It even features pockets! Now that spring has sprung, go ahead and ~spring~ this into your closet, too. A long chiffon skirt whose designer must've been aware of the important three F's: flowy, fun, and floral. This stunning piece has a comfy elastic waistband and comes in an array of vibrant colors that can take any white shirt to new, stylish heights (just look at the reviewers below!). Or a solid-colored flowy maxi skirt if you truly believe that florals in spring are *not* groundbreaking in the least. Luckily there are plenty of options without, including this gorgeous drawstring-waist, tassel-detailed, you-can-wear-it-with-everything maxi! A stylish overall jumpsuit to take a casual T-shirt to the next level. It has deep pockets, a comfy oversized fit, and even comes in tons of cute prints! A two-piece matching linen-blend set complete with a one-shoulder crop top and ~adorable~ high-waisted paper bag-style shorts. According to reviewers, both of these pieces are comfy and breathable, making it the perfect choice for one of your vacation 'fits (as long as you're avoiding the White Lotus resorts). A ~groovy~ pair of flowy chambray pants with a high waist and material so light you'll be tempted to lounge in them... Although these beauties definitely deserve to be seen by the world! The jean look reigns supreme over actual jeans any day. When someone asks how you pulled off the perfect spring wardrobe: Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.

House of CB to open second UK store in Liverpool
House of CB is set to open its first UK store outside of London. The British womenswear brand is preparing to enter the city of Liverpool with a 6,500 square foot space scheduled to open in Liverpool One. The brand, which already boasts a large social media presence, was chosen as a means to 'add diversity to Liverpool One's occasion-wear offer', the shopping district's landlord, Landsec, said in a release. Commenting on the news, the firm's director of asset management, Rob Deacon, said: 'Bringing with it an online follower base of millions, House of CB's new store will provide just that, introducing its internationally acclaimed fashion to the city as it expands its presence in physical retail. 'The store will complement our one-of-a-kind line-up of leading fashion retailers, providing even more unique reasons to visit Liverpool One.' House of CB opened its first permanent retail store in 2024 on London's Oxford Street, following the success of a pop-up space that it had operated in 2023. The location added to its existing standalone stores in the US, in Los Angeles and Atlanta, as well as its concession in Selfridges.
