Transition Your Wardrobe

It’s here! That in-between season that divides winter and spring. A season of unpredictable weather that can stump even the most fashion forward diva. While retailers everywhere are showcasing floral frocks and 2009’s spring fashion trends, Mother Nature seems to have other ideas. One minute spring is in the air, and then suddenly it’s snowing—so how does a fashion maven battle against the unpredictable weather? With layers!

Although the promise of warm weather is near, that doesn’t mean it’s time to give up some of your winter favorites. Cotton cardigans, denim jackets and long sleeve tees are transitional wardrobe essentials and can be layered with spring favorites for a comfortable “in between seasons” look. A transitional wardrobe is all about mixing and matching winter basics with warm weather styles. You can layer a cotton tee with a spaghetti strap dress or match up a long-sleeve cardigan with your favorite cotton skirt—this season is the best time to tap into your creative side and create a transitional wardrobe that’s all your own.

Check out these functional yet trendy layering essentials for ideas on how to create a transitional wardrobe that will keep you looking stylish as winter finally turns into spring.
