Right now, we're in that awkward transition between winter and spring, and I've officially forgotten how to get dressed. I'm ready to start wearing skirts and dresses again, but my goosebumps are telling me to put on an outer layer. Torn between my head (read: the temperature outside) and my heart (read: my need to wear spring clothes), I decided to do a bit of digging for outfit inspo. Who What Wear hosted an International Women's Day lunch, and there was no shortage of outfit inspiration among the insanely stylish guest list. Attendees included our very own Kat Collings and Hillary Kerr, J.Crew women's designer Olympia Gayot, fashion influencer Rocky Barnes, and actresses Lana Condor and Rachel Bilson, to name a few. Talk about a fashionable lineup, am I right? Layered cashmere knits, midi skirts, and light outerwear were a few key pieces I spotted, so naturally, I had to add them to my wish list. Keep scrolling to shop these transitional pieces inspired by the event's stylish attendees.
