Editor-Approved Picks for the Ultimate Spring Reset

Last night we grilled steaks and vegetables, poured rosé into my favorite glasses, and left the doors open until well after sunset. There’s something about the beginning of spring that makes everything seem lighter: swapping heavy layers for a crisp white T-shirt, seeing really good strawberries in the store again, or feeling that first warm breeze that promises longer days ahead.

March is less about reinvention and more about reception Nutritious routines and good energy. This month’s editor’s picks are inspired by that shift: pieces that feel fresh yet simple, wellness staples that support a lighter pace, and home goods that help us go from cozy to airy without missing a beat. Consider this your soft edit to start the new season: simple updates that make everyday life feel bright, open and a little more alive.

in our closets

My light uniform for warm days

There’s something about a light button-down shirt and simple shorts that feels like summer. I love the delicate embroidery on this shirt, it adds that thoughtful detail that always draws me in, while the relaxed silhouette of the shorts makes everything feel breathable and effortless. It’s the kind of outfit I’d wear on a hot afternoon at the beach, over a swimsuit, or lightly dressed for dinner with sandals and sun-kissed skin. Simple, airy and refined in that understated way that makes dressing easy again. – Camille Styles, editor in chief

The brand that anchors my entire wardrobe

Rumors have quickly become the foundation of my wardrobe: the pieces around which I build my outfits, season after season. Their silhouettes strike that strange balance between timeless and slightly undone, which means I’m constantly reaching for them. This spring, I’m leaning toward the Newport cardigan in ivory: soft, structured, and the perfect layer over everything from denim to slip dresses. The Portofino Maxi Dress is already booked for the weddings on my 2026 calendar; It has that natural European summer energy that feels special without trying too hard. And the Silhouette miniskirt? A reminder that every timeless wardrobe needs a little play. Polka dots are forever and this one feels polished enough to wear year-round. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

The shoe that keeps me moving

I’ve been increasing my daily steps and adding short runs, and the HOKA Bondi 9 makes it feel easy. They are so cute that it feels like walking on clouds, but they are still supportive and stable. Also, Free People has a new colorway called Lilac Cream/Tangerine that is very pretty. – Tatom Hoffmann, Marketing Intern

Earrings that instantly make me feel better

These are the type of earrings that make everything else look finished. Simple and timeless, they add a little sparkle to even the simplest look. I have searched for them daily: they are simple, simple and the perfect example of how a small detail can enhance the everyday. – Camille Styles, editor in chief

In our homes

The change of bedding that softens a room

I’ve always believed that bedding sets the emotional tone of a bedroom: it’s the first thing you see and the last thing you touch each day. Quince’s Airy Organic Chiffon Duvet Cover Set offers that natural, lived-in softness that I’m constantly looking for. The cotton voile has a breathable, slightly crinkled texture that feels relaxed yet refined, and the Fig shade adds depth without overpowering the room (it’s warm, relaxing, and quite unexpected). As the seasons change, I’ve been craving lighter layers that still feel comfortable, and this strikes that balance beautifully. It makes my entire space feel calmer, softer, and more considered. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

My Easiest Home Improvement Yet

I just replaced the rug in my bedroom with this one from Ruggable and it completely changed the feel of the space, like spring arrived overnight. It’s soft, fresh and somehow makes everything seem lighter and calmer, something I didn’t know I needed so much. Plus, the fact that I can literally throw it in the washing machine gives me so much peace of mind… I don’t think I’ll ever use a regular rug again. – Anna Decker, Director of Social Media and E-Commerce

In our kitchens

The shortcut to a fresh kitchen

I didn’t expect to have strong feelings towards a kitchen cleaner, but here we are. This one smells fresh and citrusy in the most natural way (bright lemon myrtle with a hint of tangerine), so cleaning countertops feels less like a chore and more like a reset. – Camille Styles, editor in chief

Improved bread dipping

I bought this mini olive oil set as a gift for my husband and it has been a pleasure! The quality of the oil is much better than what you get in the supermarket and we have been enjoying it with homemade bread. This sampler includes two regular olive oils and also lemon and garlic infused oils! – Kristen Garaffo, Design Editor

In Our Bathrooms

A single-product hair routine

I’m leaning toward hair that feels a little more tousled this spring, and this mousse has been my shortcut. It gives smooth shape and definition without crunch or stiffness, so I can let my hair air dry and still feel polished enough to head out the door. The result is that simple, relaxed texture that suits the season: less effort, more movement and a little more freedom in my daily routine. – Camille Styles, editor in chief

Morning Glow Essentials

I am committed to looking perpetually radiant right now. Neither sweaty nor shiny: just healthy, illuminated skin from within. Solsoller’s Skinlit Bellini glazed milk is the basis for that. It’s this milky, soothing layer that supports the barrier (niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, the good stuff) and leaves skin hydrated but never weighed down. I keep mine in the refrigerator and cold press it, which almost changes my life in the morning.

Next, I sweep the Lueur Dorée Luminous Sculptor over my cheekbones and temples. It blends perfectly without shine or streaks. Some days it’s literally SPF + this, and that’s it. If you too are in your age of radiance, you need both.

Humidity that lasts all day

I was gifted the Kate McLeod lotion bar for Christmas and it truly has been the gift that keeps on giving. I use it daily (sometimes in the morning and night), and SAVES my dry Colorado skin. It glides like silk and is also sustainable! Simply refill your stone when it runs out. – Edie Horstman, Wellness Editor

My secret to affordable skin care

I think Versed must be the perfect skincare line. It wasn’t until I purchased their new pore cleansing serum, needing a gentle exfoliant for my 40-year-old but still breakout-prone skin, that it clicked: I’ve never bought a Versed product that didn’t make a noticeable difference on my skin. They fly under the radar, but have remained consistent in both affordability and quality for years. I’ve been using the serum for about a month and my skin is clearer and smoother, and I love how makeup no longer “stays on top” of my skin. – Brittany Chatburn, Director of Marketing

A scent that makes me think twice

I have to admit: As much as I love woody, earthy scents in my home, I’m drawn to gourmet perfumes. For years, I have sprayed almost every vanilla scented fragrance I could find. Unfortunately, most are cloying and sickly sweet. But not this one. As an aroma mist, it is light and airy, making it perfect for running casual errands or dining with friends. Sometimes I smell his smell in my hair and I almost turn away thinking: What is that amazing smell? – Langa Chinyoka, beauty editor

My hand cream always in my bag

I carry hand cream with me at all times. This is an instant favorite. Made with Manuka honey for deep hydration, it’s rich without being greasy. Flamingo Estate is the epitome of luxury that doesn’t have to be advertised. It just works and works well. – Langa Chinyoka, beauty editor

Wake up like you’ve gone on vacation

I feel like we’re at that awkward stage of the year where we’re still in the middle of winter, but we’re starting to obsess over summer too much. Saltyface Tanning Water, specifically the Face Set in Light to Medium, has been single-handedly fighting off the ugly winters while also giving me hope for the sunny days ahead. I use it about twice a week as the final step of my skincare routine and wake up like I just got back from vacation. – Bridget Chambers, fashion editor

in our routines

The supplement brand I keep looking for

I’ve always been a supplement person (my cabinet is designed with the same intention as my skincare shelf) and Lemme quickly became one of the brands I truly trust. Recently I have been alternating between Lemme Multi Women’s Daily Gummies and Lemme Grow Hair Growth Soft Chews. The multi covers the essential elements (vitamin D, B12, folate, and other key nutrients that support energy and overall balance), while the hair chews focus on biotin and specific ingredients that support stronger, healthier hair. (Especially after a winter of dry air and tight buns.) – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist
