Spring is firmly here with summer soon on the way – and an elegance coach has revealed her must-haves for the warmer seasons.

Anna Bey, who splits her time between London and Geneva, revealed in a recent YouTube video how to look expensive and classy – without splurging on designer outfits.

She suggested that crisp white jeans, sleeveless turtlenecks, oversized sunglasses and matching sets all instantly elevate any spring ensemble.

WHITE TROUSERS

The elegance coach said: ‘White trousers, white jeans, white shorts, white skirts, white denim shorts, white denim skirts. It doesn’t matter. 

‘Anything white in this department is going to elevate your look so much this spring, and this can be done on any budget.’

COLOURFUL TROUSERS  

SLEEVELESS TURTLENECKS 

‘So we are moving away from winter, from fall, we’re storing those turtlenecks away and you know, turtlenecks always make a woman look incredibly elegant and sophisticated,’ said Anna. 

‘But it’s not too hot yet because we’re still in spring. So we can wear a few turtlenecks if the sleeve is cut off.’

‘So we are talking spring now and actually now is a time to really pull out those colours,’ said Anna. 

‘And if you start wearing colour on your trouser and I’m not talking about jeans now, I’m talking about a proper tailored trouser, you’re going to see how many opportunities you’re going to create in your wardrobe for new, exciting colour combinations and outfits. 

‘But it’s also a little bit more fun to wear colour in spring. Now is the time to pull out those pastels, those bright colours and really store away those dark, boring colours that we really saw all winter. We don’t want to see them anymore.’

LOAFERS 

‘Another perfect way to look elevated on the budget is when you wear loafers,’ insisted Anna.

‘Super chic, definitely is going to look good with your white trousers or even coloured trousers. 

‘Because traditionally speaking, the loafer is a very preppy, very classic and very sophisticated type of footwear. 

‘So it would be a shame for you not to include it in your wardrobe as a standard piece to have, especially now when it’s spring and summertime.’

SHIRT DRESS 

Anna (pictured) suggested that crisp white jeans, sleeveless turtlenecks, oversized sunglasses and matching sets all instantly elevate any spring ensemble

The elegance coach said: ‘I have spoken about this garment in many times now, and every woman needs to have this piece in her wardrobe because this is a staple piece. 

‘I’m talking about the shirt dress and spring is the perfect time to wear it because it’s not yet too hot, like in summer, when we might want to get rid of those sleeves.

‘But it can also work as a great piece for women who are more interested in modest fashion. 

‘So I personally wear shirt dresses all year round actually. I really like to wear it as an everyday piece of garment.’

THIN BELTS AND  OVERSIZED SUNGLASSES

The elegance coach said the accessories needed this spring include thin belts to pair with suitable dresses and oversized sunglasses. 

She explained: ‘Every woman should have these in spring. 

‘I’m talking about the oversized sunglasses that are just big, beautiful and covers up your face nicely when you don’t want to be seen.’

MATCHING SETS 

‘So one secret that I’m generously going to share with you on how to look put together and expensive – well that is when you wear matching sets,’ said Anna. 

‘So the point here is that your top should be matching the trouser, the skirt, whatever it is you’re wearing.

‘It should come from exactly the same brand, from the same collection, from the same family. 

‘So here, because it’s a matching set, it somehow just looks more coordinated and it elevates the entire look. 

‘I like in particular matching silk sets. I think they look incredibly chic and silk is one of those type of fabrics that always looks expensive. 

‘This doesn’t have to cost a lot of money. You can find great budget alternatives in satin, which tends to be cheaper.’

SIMPLE TRAINERS 

‘Expensive looking sneakers’ was another recommendation from Anna. She said: ‘The secret is to look for sneakers that are very minimal. 

‘It shouldn’t be all kinds of weird detailing and preferably free from any metal. Like we don’t want to see, golden or silver detailing on the shoe because the high street tends to make that look incredibly low budget. 

‘Instead, we want something that is as simple, as minimal, as discreet as possible. And therefore, it’s gonna look more expensive than it actually is.’

TWEED MINI SKIRT 

The elegance coach said: ‘So fall and winter, we could maybe pull the tweed mini skirt off if we wear tights underneath, but in spring we can actually go bare leg.

‘And the tweed mini skirt is definitely going to be more popular with my younger audience, but I do believe even ladies my age could definitely pull it off as long as you know how to style it correctly. 

‘I definitely like the tweed mini skirt because it gives you more of a preppy look. It also has a form of sophistication to it. 

‘The good news is tweed mini skirts are really everywhere right now. So you’re able to pick something up on the cheap because truly you can find them everywhere. I’m sure you can even find it at a local market or something like that at this point.’
