Clothing Styles for Transitioning from Winter to Spring
Although winter can feel endless, spring will be here before we know it! To prepare for the warmer months, we can start by making some simple changes in our wardrobe! Spring clothing is full of pretty colors and cute styles that anyone can wear!
From Boots to Booties
Winter boots are often heavy, warm, and built for trekking through the snow. As the snow melts, we can switch to a smaller, more fashionable bootie. Booties can be easily styled with jeans, leggings, dresses, skirts, shorts, and even rompers or pantsuits! Booties are warm like boots, but more comfortable and come with a wide selection to choose from. Booties are the perfect shoe between winter boots and summer sandals.
Layers Layers Layers!
Layering has been in style for years, but over time the options have grown. Cardigans are easy to throw on and go with any tank top or t-shirt. Cardigans can even act as a jacket. Another idea would be to layer a dress over top of a long sleeve shirt or turtle neck. If you need more layers, you can throw on a pair of tights with the dress and you look awesome!
Another very trendy option at the moment is a sweater vest. They are comfy, cute, and look great over any long sleeve shirt or dress. They will keep you warm, but not too warm when the sun comes out on a spring day!
Swap your Winter Coat for a Spring Jacket
Although winter coats are a staple for the cold months, they are often too heavy and warm for the transition to spring. Spring jackets will keep you warm and are easier to style. Leather jackets are such a hit. They can easily be dressed up for a night out or worn as just another layer. Shorter, more cropped jackets are perfect for the warmer months.
Jean jackets come in all different shades and look great with dresses and leggings. Denim on denim has even made a comeback. Finally, utility jackets! Utility jackets are built to last in the rain. They have a water-wicking fabric that will keep you dry throughout the spring showers. They typically have lots of pockets that are functional and fashionable!
Spring Accessories
Winter accessories include hats, scarves, sherpa purses, and fuzzy socks, but it’s time to switch things up! Light pink and blue purses are the ultimate accessory because they can brighten up any look. Although fuzzy socks are great for lounging, crew socks pair better with booties. Crew socks can be plain, printed, or have a pretty ruffle around the top to peak out of your booties. Leave your hats and scarves behind and grab a silk headband. They can be rolled into a smaller headband or worn as a headscarf. The silk fabric is easy to style and soft for your hair!
