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.

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.
