A cute cardigan-and-jeans combo exudes effortless Parisian charm and is perfect when it's not too hot and not too cold.
Shop the look:
A knit maxi dress is a great in-between-season piece. Pair with chunky combat boots and a leather jacket like Londoner, Lucy Williams to ease you from winter-to-spring in style.
Shop the look:
Opt for cozy textured pieces like a plush coat over a ribbed knit top in a pastel palette that will keep you warm yet exude an air of spring.
Shop the look:
Nothing says the arrival of spring quite like a lightweight trench coat. Style it over a cozy sweatsuit and sneakers for a casual-cool look.
Shop the look:
Layering is the name of the game between winter and spring. Try a trending skirt set over a turtleneck with tights, knee-high boots, and a beret. Such a charming transitional look.
Shop the look:
For a chic look, layer a trench over a sweater vest over a basic white tee—cinched at the waist with high-waisted trousers. A neutral color scheme will give your outfit a luxe touch.
Shop the look:
As we near spring, a floral maxi dress is a perfect option to pair with a chunky knit cardigan. Pair with shearling-lined sandals or opt for boots depending on the weather.
Shop the look:
The beauty of a blazer is that it defies seasons—you can wear it with almost any outfit at any time of year. To put a spring in your step layer a colorful one over a white turtleneck and black jeans, and finish the look with chunky boots.
