7 Spring Outfit Formulas That Work On Almost Everyone

March 19, 2024 By: Nada Manley2 Comments

You can feel it coming, right? I’m going to use one of my only jokes again: “The only formulas I like are outfit formulas.” I’m hilarious. It is true, though, because outfit formulas give you a simple framework for creating outfits with confidence and ease. They are tried and tested and take the guesswork out of getting dressed.

Today, I’m sharing 7 simple and springlike outfit formulas that will help you wear your spring favorites in new ways. These are broad enough to work for almost everyone, and specific enough to give you some direction.

The success of an outfit formula depends on our ability to take the broad descriptors of the pieces and translate them into flattering, versatile, and wearable items. Then you plug those items into your formula, and you’ve got a beautiful flattering outfit that is unique to you!

So here, 7 spring outfit formulas that work on almost everyone!

The Outfit Formulas
Striped top + Wide Leg Jeans + Colorful Shoes
Monochromatic Base + Contrasting Jacket
Light Top + Dark Bottoms + Medium Jacket
Denim Shirt + Jeans + Belt
Lace Top + Jeans + Ballet Flats
White Top + Neutral Jacket + Jeans + Classic Shoes
Flowy Dress + Espadrilles + Straw Bag

What did you think of these simple outfit formulas? And which will you be trying this week? Let me know if you have any questions!

    Hi Marge! Dress video coming up! I’m working on one now. As for your body type, the big distinction between the two is the hip to shoulder ratio. If your hips are the same width as your shoulders, you might be a red. if your hips are wider than your shoulders, then probably an orange. Does that make sense? Let me know if you have any other questions!

    I would love a spring video with only dresses. I am having problem deciding if I’m a red or an orange. I have a long torso and defined waist. However I have a belly under my breasts and a flat abdomen>
