Spring is officially here, and that means it's time to swap out our clunky coats and fuzzy scarves for flowy dresses and denim jackets. The annual wardrobe changeover is upon us! And, as is tradition at this time of year, adding a few new seasonal items to said seasonal wardrobe is non-negotiable, in our opinion.

If you, too, are treating yourself to a little spring wardrobe refresh, take it from a style shopping editor: head to H&M ASAP—specifically for its Smocked Strappy Dress in the dark brown polka-dot print. It hits three of spring’s biggest trends—polka dots, square necklines, and a midi silhouette—making it an easy add to your warm-weather outfit rotation.

This $20 dress has a smocked design at the top that's comfortable and provides a flexible fit that moves with you. As for the neckline, the square finish feels modern and structured, giving it a clean, on-trend silhouette. And, I mean, the polka dot print speaks for itself! The print of the season adds a vintage-inspired touch that keeps the overall look fun and easy to wear.

Although it comes in three colorways, our fave—and the trendiest of the three, if you ask us—is the brown with white polka dots. It can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. If you're heading out for brunch with your besties, this dress can casually be worn with ballet sneakers. If you want to elevate it, for date night, some wedge heels would zhuzh it up!
