Spring time is almost here! Thank God, this 20 degree weather and these blizzards are not cutting it. We only have a few more weeks of winter so, in preparation for this transition into spring, I have compiled a list of winter-spring transitional must haves. The early part of a new season is very tricky and people are confused on how to dress for the weather. We go shopping attempting to expand our spring wardrobe, but we are faced with the winter items that are on sale, but it is too warm to wear the chunky sweater and the tanks and shorts are out but it is to chilly to start shedding the clothes. The key is to layer, layer, layer. So, check out the top 5 pieces you will need to make a smooth transition.

 1. Boyfriend Blazer- The boyfriend blazer is now a staple piece in any woman’s wardrobe. The menswear cut with a touch of femininity is the best combination. This blazer can be layered over a cami for the evening, a graphic print t-shirt for the day. It is the perfect layering piece for chilly nights.

2. Trench Coat- The trench is ESSENTIAL to any woman’s wardrobe. This is the perfect transitional outerwear piece because its versatility. It can be worn during the day time or evening, to work when paired with your favorite dress or pencil skirt, or on weekends paired with your favorite jeans. It is very light for the spring, but heavy enough to keep you warm. Go for bold colors or even pastels. You can never go wrong with the traditional khaki.
