Bloom Into Spring

Spring in Brisbane hits differently. While other parts of the world are still thawing out of winter, we’re already peeling off layers, reaching for iced lattes, and trying to remember where we left our sunnies. It’s warm, it’s bright, and it’s the perfect excuse to refresh your wardrobe and your routine.

So what’s trending this spring and how do you make it work for Brisbane’s unique warm-but-still-crisp mornings? Let’s dive in.

Light Layers & Fresh Colours

Mornings can still have a little bite, but by midday it feels like you’re melting. The trick? Outfits that layer easily. Think of it as your wardrobe version of “hot girl adaptability.”

At EV, our activewear staples are perfect for this. Slip into a body-hugging jumpsuit or bike shorts and crop set, then throw a lightweight oversized tee or slouchy jumper on top. By the time the sun is out in full force, peel it off and you’re ready for a lunchtime walk or riverside brunch without breaking a sweat. The Shana Maxi dress is a perfect base to pair with your favourite jumper and sandals. 

Pro tip: stick to lighter neutrals or soft pastels this spring. They not only feel fresh but also double as your foundation pieces for mixing and matching.

Trends to keep on your radar

Sporty chic is back and stronger than ever. Think elevated athleisure that doesn’t just belong at the gym. A fitted jumpsuit with chunky sandals? Yes. Bike shorts with a crisp button-up shirt? Absolutely. Sneakers that you can wear with literally anything? A must.

Clean minimalism is also having a moment, with monochrome sets and simple, sculpting silhouettes leading the way (which is perfect for Ella Vari girls because our pieces already do that for you!)

And don’t forget texture play. Lightweight knits thrown over sleek activewear, ribbed crop tops paired with smooth shorts or even mixing matte and gloss accessories. It’s less about following a strict rule and more about having fun with what you already own. Or, treating yourself to something completely new and stylish! 

Fuel your spring energy

New season, new energy. With longer days and busier weekends, keeping hydrated and fuelled is key. That’s where Evolve Nutrition comes in (plus, it's 15% off until the end of September)

• Hydr8 Electrolytes are your best friend for those sweaty Brisbane afternoons. Toss it in your water bottle and you’ve got hydration handled.

• Green Machine Super Greens is the easiest way to sneak some extra nutrients into your morning smoothie before heading out.

• Vegan Protein or Lipo Whey makes post-workout recovery taste like dessert, which let’s be real, is the kind of motivation we need.

Spring is about feeling light and energised, not sluggish and drained. A little supplementation goes a long way.

Workouts that feel like fun

Brisbane in spring is basically an invitation to take your workouts outside. Walk the Kangaroo Point cliffs in the morning while the air is still cool. Do a bodyweight circuit at South Bank Parklands with a resistance band from our Ella Vari equipment collection. Roll out a yoga mat on your balcony and soak in that crisp-but-sunny vibe while you stretch.

And if you’d rather keep it indoors? Our yoga rings, bands and at-home gear mean you can get your movement in before work without even leaving the house. Quick, effective, and shower-ready in minutes.

Things to do this spring in Brisbane

• Jacaranda walks: October means purple-lined streets everywhere from New Farm Park to UQ. Perfect excuse for a picnic in your comfiest Ella Vari set. A classic and nostalgic option if you grew up in Brissy or have an out of town friend/family visiting.

• Markets: Head to Jan Powers Farmers Market or the Collective Markets at South Bank for fresh flowers, iced coffees, and people-watching.

• River strolls: Early evening walks along Kangaroo Point boardwalk are basically therapy. Bonus points if you sneak in a jog.

• Day trips: Spring is the best time to head to the Gold Coast before it gets too hot and crowded. Think Burleigh Heads with a beach bag, sunnies, and your favourite Ella Vari playsuit. Hot girl walk around the beach, city or have a shopping day at Harbour Town. 

Spring in Brisbane is about balance. Light layers for changing temps, workouts that feel more like play, and energy boosts that keep you glowing through all the fun. With our spring-ready wardrobe staples, Evolve Nutrition’s wellness boosters, and a city full of things to do, you’ve got everything you need to step into the season of feeling fresh. 

So grab your sunnies, slip into your favourite set, and let’s make this spring one to remember. ✨
