The Simplest Way To Transition Your Winter Outfits Into Springtime Looks.
April is one of those annoying in-between months of the year where you have no idea what to wear – one day it might be relatively warm, the next it could be snowing. It’s confusing.
But these outfits are meant to be transitional, so that you can wear them on the colder days and adjust some stuff to also wear them on the warmer days that feel like spring. They’re also super easy to put together.
Tips & Tricks for Creating Spring Transition Outfits
Everyone loves to wear pastels in March and April, but it might feel funny to you if it’s cold or dreary outside. To balance it out, pair pastel pieces with dark neutrals like black, navy and camel.
Speaking of pops of color, colorblocking is another awesome way to infuse a bit of springtime into your ensemble without going overboard. Think brightly colored shoes with dark-washed jeans and a pastel shirt. Jackets and cardigans are your best friends. A denim or leather jacket will look great pair with a summery floral dress, and a cardigan will pair nicely with pretty much any t-shirt that you own.
Shoes are definitely something you ought to think about as well. Personally, I’m against sandals until it gets very warm outside. That being said, it really depends on how warm your city is (Miami? Go for it!) and, of course, how comfortable you feel.
Accessories are a good way to warm up spring outfits as well. A well-placed fedora or light scarf will protect you from wind gusts without compromising your style.
Invest in an awesome parka, one that will serve you well in both the wind and the rain. I have an awesome military-style one that pretty much goes with everything in my closet.
When it comes down to it, creating great transitional outfits is all about artfully juxtaposing winter and summer pieces.
