Before attempting to plan your outfit ideas, however, ensure you invest in high-quality garments. For instance, it's best to shop for basic white T-shirts with different cuts and quality for versatility and convenience. At the very least, you should own one thick or tightly knit shirt and one lighter shirt for cooler days. As a chic layering tip, it's also important to own T-shirts that you can tuck into trousers or jeans, so avoid buying too many cropped tees. Additionally, consider purchasing tees with various necklines, such as scoop necks or V-necks. Follow these layering tips to help you step up your spring 2024 style.

Layer with an oversized pull-over

One of the foolproof layering outfits you should take advantage of this season is the classic T-shirt-and-pull-over combination. A basic white T-shirt with an oversized pullover sweater makes the perfect base for an outfit that's both comfy and trendy. Look for an oversized sweater with a deep V-neck and balance the loose silhouette with a thigh-baring miniskirt.

Dress casually with a denim button-up

Faded denim is one of the spring/summer 2024 fashion trends we're excited to see this year, so what better way to embrace the new season than by combining two stylish trends? Loose denim button-ups are a versatile piece you can easily layer with a white tee for a breezy spring 'fit. Don't forget to toss a thick jumper over your shoulders to stay extra-warm on the chilly days.

Go for a crop

Another trendy way to layer a basic white tee is underneath a crop top, whether it's made from light or heavier material. Normally, the white tee will peek out from beneath the collar of your top layer, but with this look, the idea is to show off the T-shirt from the bottom. Throw on a classic camel trench, or even another shade that brings your outfit together, if the crop top leaves you feeling a little cool while the weather is still warming up.

Go cozy and classy with a knit cardigan

Knit cardigans are essential to the winter wardrobe, but they also make wonderful transition pieces. Layer your white T-shirt with a chunky cardigan on days when the sun is out but the air is still too crisp to get away with simple layers. Reach for cardigans with delicate floral details or unique buttons to keep it modern and trendy.

Bundle up with knit sweaters and wool coats

While it's tempting to tuck away the heavy outerwear and warmer knits at the first sign of sunshine, you often need to fall back on thicker layers at the beginning of spring. On days when you need to bundle up, pull off a layered look with a staple button-up knit and toasty outerwear. Don't be afraid to introduce some color into your outfit in the spirit of spring with statement shoes.
