Though it might feel like winter will never end, spring is on the way.

To set you up for styling success, we're breaking down some of the biggest takeaways from fashion month from a handful of experts.

Celebrity stylist Jamie Mizrahi, who works with the likes of Adele, Jeremy Allen White and recently styled 7 For All Mankind's Spring/Summer 2024 campaign, shared with "GMA" the trends she is choosing to take from the runway to real life.

Mizrahi told "GMA" that she usually doesn't style herself or her clients based on trends but has been gravitating towards a few specific things.

"I love it when spring rolls around. My uniform is a white t-shirt and jeans at that time of year," Mizrahi said.

We also spoke with lifestyle host Melissa Chataigne, who is no stranger to red carpets and trends to watch. "After being in sweats for the last few years, it's nice to see the return of power dressing for spring," Chataigne said.

In addition to fashion looks, we discussed one of the most important additions to any outfit -- footwear -- with fashion blogger Maria Makarenko.

Makarenko, Mizrahi and Chataigne shared what to look for and what to shop below. Check it out.

Sheer layering

"For years, we've seen the rise of naked fashion, which culminated in gauzy see-through looks that left little to the imagination everywhere from the runways to the red carpet," Mizrahi said.

"The momentum for sheer pieces isn't slowing down, but we are seeing a shift in how the items are being styled -- now in decidedly more modest ways," she added. "For example, at the Altuzarra and Carven show, sheer pencil skirts were paired with crewneck knits and pointed mules. At Prada, shift dresses made from delicate organza in a range of pastels seemed to float across the runway. What each of these looks showcases is a new age of sheer that is more approachable and more wearable than the completely bare looks that permeated the last several seasons."

Barrell jeans

"Barrel jeans are this season's most divided trend that can be paired with just about anything in your wardrobe. The wide structured cowboy frame pants might seem too masculine, but are surprisingly flattering and make your shoes center stage. Dress for casual Friday with a pair matched with your favorite crisp white blouse or boucle jacket," Chataigne said.
