As fashionistas prepare for family picnics, road trips and days by the waterfront, it’s clear that late spring is officially in the air. With the Victoria Day long weekend around the corner, trendsetters everywhere will be hunting for their favourite skinny denim and flowing frocks. Whether you’re staying in town over the upcoming three day weekend or heading out on a weekend retreat, here are our favourite casual wardrobe essentials for a mix of style with comfort.

JOES JEANS

1) Joe’s Cayla Vixen Skinny Ankle Jeans, $76: For springtime, try showing off your shapely legs in a pair of skinny ankle-length jeans. This timeless dark wash pair by Joe’s can easily be paired with anything from a metallic crop top to a classic white Oxford blouse.

IVANK TRUMP HEELS

2) Ivanka Trump Brita Suede Pointed Toe Ankle Strap Pumps, $183: If you prefer neutral ensembles with a pop of colour, try stepping out in these pale blue suede ankle strap pumps. The three inch heels can offer you a bit of a lift, while the refreshing colour is also perfectly playful.

MAGGY LONDON

3) Maggy London Lace Fit & Flare Dress, $186: This season, the little white dress can take the place of your must-have LBD as we settle into balmy temperatures. We are loving the look of this flared white frock, which is perfect for a classy date night or an evening of cocktails. The dainty floral lace and girlish hemline help to complete the look, while the waist-cinching cut can define your figure.

ELLA MOSS

4) Ella Moss ‘Lilita’ Macramé Trim Off the Shoulder Top, $213: With boho chic pieces reigning supreme for the warmer months, this pale pink peasant blouse is a wardrobe essential. The ruched detail, off-shoulder neckline and contrasting white macramé accents all add a finishing touch.

BLUE DRESS

5) LIKELY Delancey Fit and Flare Dress, $228: With Pantone’s Serenity shade making a statement on the spring runways, try incorporating the popular hue into your weekend fashion as well. This ladylike strappy number features a V-neckline, flared hem and figure-flattering bodice. Meanwhile, the colour brings the gorgeous May skies to mind, and helps update your colour palette for spring.
