How to Build a Transitional Wardrobe

Tops and Outerwear

Lightweight Sweaters. Opt for knitwear that provides warmth without being too heavy. Perfect for layering. I find that cashmere makes the perfect lightweight sweater. A neutral cashmere sweater is a versatile item that can elevate any outfit while also providing warmth and comfort. An investment in a high-quality cashmere sweater is definitely worth it, as it can last for years and become a staple in your wardrobe.

Crewneck Cashmere Sweater

When choosing a cashmere sweater, opt for a neutral color such as beige, gray, or black. These shades can be easily mixed and matched with other items in your wardrobe, creating endless outfit possibilities. Be sure to choose a well-fitted cashmere sweater that flatters your body type and fits comfortably, without being too tight or too loose. Crewnecks, v-necks or a turtleneck are all classic silhouettes that stand the test of time so pick your favorite.

Cardigans. A long or cropped cardigan can add warmth and style while transitioning from warmer to cooler weather.

Classic Trench Coat. A lightweight trench coat is ideal for layering during unpredictable weather. This timeless staple is not only practical but also adds an element of sophistication to any outfit. The beauty of a trench coat is that it can be dressed up or down, making it the perfect item to take you from work to the weekend. Even if you live in a warm climate all year round I suggest keeping a trench coat on hand as you never know when a trip to a cold and rainy city might come up.

Transitional Flats. Think sleek loafers, ballet flats, or sneakers that can work through different seasons. I think a ballet flat is the perfect transitional footwear – comfortable and appropriate for all kinds of occasions. They come in a variety of colors and textures, and can easily be dressed up or down easily. For those who prefer a bit more support, a loafer or mule can be a great alternative. Look for pairs with a rubber sole for extra grip and durability.
