Spring is (finally) here and for fashion-lovers everywhere that means only one thing.

It's time to refresh our wardrobes.

We're leaving behind the cosy clothes of winter and embracing a more carefree approach to getting dressed.

Think fine knits and light jackets perfect for layering, new season denim, everyday tailoring and dresses just made for sunny days.

And upgrading your look is easy at Very. With timeless classics and trend-led pieces all under one roof, you can curate a hard working (and gorgeous) wardrobe that'll spark a bit of fashion joy every day.    

From Very's own brand, V by Very, to premium labels like Coach, Kate Spade New York and Tommy Hilfiger, and high street staples like River Island, Levi's, Monsoon and AllSaints, there's something for everyone no matter your budget.

So let us help you nail your spring style with our pick of the best pieces to buy now at Very. 

Plus, what to buy if you've only got £30 to splash. 

Dreaming in denim

What would we do without denim?

This practical material, originally used for workwear, is such a wardrobe staple we can't imagine life without it.

From jeans to shorts and shirts to skirts, there's not an item of clothing that doesn't benefit from being recreated in denim. Even denim bikinis have a place in our hearts.

And this season the denim trends are better than ever... 

L-R: River Island Mid-Rise Straight Jeans, £38 at Very and V by Very Denim Maxi Skirt, £35

You know that feeling when you find the perfect pair of jeans? It almost feels life-changing. 

Well this pair of mid-rise, straight jeans by River Island (above left) could be the ones. The trend for straight leg denim has been around for a while, replacing skinnies as THE jeans to be seen in.

In 100% cotton, these beauties will keep their shape and can be dressed up or down with ease.

Or base your look around another huge trend that's made its way back from the early 2000s - the denim maxi skirt. V by Very's take (above right) has a cool raw hem and a figure-hugging fit and thanks to added stretch will move with you, not against you.  

L-R: Barbour Macy Denim Overshirt, £129 at Very and V by Very Denim Waistcoat, £28

Spring days mean we can say goodbye to our heavy winter coats, wearing lighter jackets instead. And this belted longline denim jacket by Barbour International (above left) is the dream. This slightly retro look is everywhere right now and this jacket will work over fine knits and tees and is perfect for festival season too. 

And another denim piece to add to your festival wardrobe is this waistcoat by V by Very (above right). It'll look amazing with cut off shorts!

Mango Oversized Denim Gilet, £36 and Mango One-piece Suit, £60 at Very

Or take the sleeveless top trend and make it oversized with this 1980s-inspired denim gilet by Mango (above left). A look seen on lots of designer catwalks, we'll be layering it over jumpers, long sleeve tees and blouses.  

And for a night out with the girls, this strapless denim jumpsuit (above right) is fantastic. Super sexy but with edge, it's the perfect combination of laid back and dressed up. Rock it with heels and plenty of attitude.

Sharp tailoring

There's something innately cool about a woman wearing a trouser suit. 

Boyish tailoring always looks incredible and the key to keep it modern and not too 'power suit' is to embrace a slightly larger cut.

L-R: V by Very Tailored Double Breasted Blazer, £55 and V by Very Tailored Wide Leg Trouser, £35

That's one of the reasons we love this suit by V by Very. The double-breasted blazer (above left) is roomy enough to fit a sweater underneath and the trousers (above right) have a flattering wide leg, while the minty fresh colour is ideal for springtime. Wear with boxfresh trainers to complete the look.

L-R: V by Very Long Sleeve Cotton Poplin Stripe Shirt, £25 and Fig & Basil Cross Hatch Trousers, £35 at Very

When building a capsule wardrobe we highly recommend investing in a well cut pinstripe shirt like this one (above left). And in the spirit of borrowing from the boys, buy it a couple of sizes too big, imagining you've woken up at your boyfriend's place and have insouciantly pulled on one of his shirts. Ultra-chic.

And why not half-tuck it into these sleek high waist trousers by Fig & Basil (above right)? That asymmetric fastening is a real stand out detail and we guarantee you'll be reaching for these all year long.  

Light knits

We love a thick chunky knit as much as anyone but when the time comes to pack them away until winter, we're always more than ready.

And what do we wear in their place? Light, fine knits that keep out the chill but which don't leave us boiling on our commute. They're also super simple to style, so what's not to love?

L-R: V by Very Stripe Crew Neck Knitted Jumper, £22 and V by Very Slim Knit Rainbow Knitted Top, £35

We'll be stocking up this season, starting with these two striped beauties by V by Very. This ribbed green and white stripe knit (above left) is fresh as a daisy and we love those flared cuffs, while this multi-coloured ribbed top is as cheerful as a rainbow.

For a touch of sleek elegance try this navy knit by Fig & Basil (below left). The V-neck and split hem work to accentuate the waist and it's one of those tops that'll take you from your desk to dinner with just a change of jewellery.

Or work a Saint-Tropez meets Upper East Side aesthetic with Mango's very sophisticated contrast trim cardigan (below right). Wear buttoned up and tucked into high waist trousers or leave the bottom buttons undone and style it with a leather midi skirt. Either way you'll look perfectly put together.

Dresses to die for

Whether you're heading to a wedding, planning a family party, need a new look for a job interview or are shopping for a summer holiday, sometimes only a dress will do.

And at Very you'll find minis, midi and maxis for every occasion, so finding the perfect look is a breeze.

Barbour Kelburn Cotton Midi Dress, £159 at Very and V by Very Twist Mono Crochet Midaxi Dress, £28

This very pretty and versatile midi by Barbour International (above left) is the absolute dream for picnics in the park, sunny day brunches and for bringing a slice of carefree romance to your wardrobe. Wear with leather sandals or a pair of raffia wedges to complete the look.

Or combine the beachiness of crochet with the sexiness of bodycon with this bandeau midi (above right). It'll look fantastic on your next date night and don't forget to pack it in your suitcase this summer. 

ONLY GOT £30? HERE'S WHAT TO SPEND IT ON...

You don't need a huge budget to update your wardrobe this season.

Sometimes all we need to breathe new life into our look is one new item which can be styled up with the pieces we already own.

In fact, one new top or pair of trousers can change the way we see the clothes we've had for a long time. You may even feel like you've had a total wardrobe makeover.

So, here's our pick of 6 spring must-haves at Very, perfect for a quick style upgrade.

The blouse

V by Very Broidery Insert Dobby Blouse, was £32, now £30.50

The definition of versatile, this very pretty blouse will look gorgeous with jeans and ankle boots for a weekend brunch, but will also work for a day at the office.

We love the feminine frills, voluminous sleeves and embroidery details.

The denim midi skirt is well and truly back, so if you want an on-trend piece that's still classic then this is for you.

The stripe knit

V by Very Short Sleeve Stripe Jumper With Collar, £25

Timeless and preppy, stripes are a reliable friend when it comes to getting dressed.

We're big fans of this polo style knit and will be rocking it with high waisted, wide leg trousers, or a pair of jeans for off-duty days.

The waistcoat

In The Style Hannah Brown Button Through Waistcoat, £28 at Very

If you want to tap into the tailoring trend without splashing out on a whole trouser suit, a waistcoat is the perfect pick. 

Style with jeans and trousers, layering over a white tee or blouse on chillier days and switching to bare arms when the temperature rises.

The trousers

V by Very Utility Cargo Jogger, £25

Wide leg trousers are incredibly flattering. No matter your height, they elongate legs to epic proportions, so if you haven't embraced this look, why not give it a go this season?

And for a trend double-whammy, we like these cargo pants by V by Very. The neutral shade makes them easy to style with tops, tees, shirts and tanks. And they're only £25!
