Listen: Spring is here, which means new fashion and beauty trends are here too. It's time to reinvent our wardrobes, our makeup looks, and get ready for the warmer weather.

But even better than learning what all the trends are is understanding how to pair them with each other. Exactly which trend from fashion goes with which trend from beauty? That's where we step in. Scroll on to find out what everyone will be wearing for spring 2023—on their bodies and their faces—and how it all comes together for maximum impact. You're about to look so chic.

It's simple, really: Travel back in time, steal a bunch of accessories, then reenter 2023 and make sure to incorporate lavender liner into your makeup routine.

Too much? Lol, never. (If you’re more into~subtlety~, pairing all this with a black slip dress will bring you a little bit back to Earth.)

The most unexpected thing you could do with your leather look is glam it up with glitter. In other words, dress for WarpedTour but do your makeup for Studio 54.

We know you’re already in your maximalist mani era, so why not go absolutely all out—top optional—with your most out-there outfit at the same time?

Aka two high-impact choices that combine to make an excellent cover for your lazy-girl life. Just swipe on a super-dark hue and top with a thick gloss.

Skip everything else makeup-wise—these wraparound sunnies will take it from here.

Let's bring the attention up to the face (she deserves it) via the boldest of chokers. Now that everyone's looking, time to impress with a multicolored red lip.

Raise your arms, shake your head, bust out your best dance moves—this fashion and beauty moment is even better in motion.

Soft and romantic, meet sleek and dramatic.(See? Opposites really do attract and this power couple is proof.)
