Madewell Spring Catalogue 2012

There's a sweet story inside Madewell's Spring catalogue — OK, there's more than one style narrative we love in this batch of looks. The brand's latest is a collection of early Spring inspiration that speaks to the cornerstones of our wardrobe and the label's spot-on eye for styling. First, we're whisked off to Paris, where denim takes the spotlight in every easy iteration — '70s flares, the quintessential denim jacket. From there, Madewell zeroes in on two of our favorite trends with its must-have neutrals and playful prints. It's all inside the brand's first-ever Spring catalog. Read on for our key takeaways, then click through for a glimpse of all the covetable looks.

• We love that this easy tank also speaks to this season's sporty trend. It's an incredibly versatile topper that would look just as easy against '70s-style denim as it would with silky track pants.
• This sweater dress is transitional dressing made easy. Finish it off with a lightweight jacket and ballet flats or ankle boots for easy day-to-day style till the weather officially warms up.
• This silky popover will become a Spring to Summer staple. Trust us, it'll work just as well at the office as it will at the beach.
