Temperatures are on the rise, which means there's no better time to update the wardrobe.
Style Expert Erica Wark joined CTV Morning Live with spring styles from WINNERS + Marshalls to discuss how to stay stylish, on-trend and on budget this season.
Wark shared five key trends to be on the lookout for this spring.
Retro Resurgence: From '70s prints to Y2K silhouettes, retro style from all eras is one of the biggest trends for this spring and summer.
Prints Please: The spring season is all about making a statement with bold prints and patterns.
Joyful Dressing: The spring runways have been drench in colour. Wark says to not shy away from mood hues and the brighter the better.
New Office Attire: After two years working from home, many people are finally headed back to the office. Wark recommends opting for work-friendly takes on more casual styles.
Cut-it-Out: One of the biggest red carpet trends for the season are cut-outs. Strategically placed cut-outs provide subtle glimpses of skin in unexpected places.
