Take a trip-even if it’s just to the office. While tribal motifs added global appeal to the Michael Kors runway, the neutral tones also work with your office basics, casting off weekday wardrobe monotony.

Dive into spring with a palette of cool blues as seen at the Missoni show. A marbled skirt and ombre blouse make the water-inspired palette more accessible than a head-to-toe wash of pattern.

Printed Pants

It's time to trade in those basic blues for something bolder, brighter, or both! Express yourself in an abstract pair like Phillip Lim sent down the runway-but be sure to ground those statement-makers with a solid top and minimalist heels.

Layering isn’t just for winter; delicate fabrics make for an equally chic spring ensemble. Louis Vuitton doubled up on the femininity by topping a lace dress with a sheer shift, but a draped all-in-one style does the work for you.

Prada sweetened up Fashion Week with pretty accordion pleats. If your style’s a bit less sugar than spice, tough girl leather adds unexpected edge to the separate, while a pretty blouse helps retain its classic polish.

Rochas’s ladylike dresses proved it: A full-skirted LBD looks even more dramatic (and flattering) paired with a waist-defining belt.
