Fashion Jobs – Top 5 Transitional Pieces for Spring

Style Nine to Five - Fashion Jobs in Canadatp

The arrival of spring generally denotes shopping for a new wardrobe particularly for fashion fanatics. The tendency, however, is that we lean towards more summer-y pieces than transitional clothing once the positive temperatures hit. In other words, we tend to disregard that spring comes first before summer! Although many retail stores begin selling bare and lightweight pieces at the beginning of March, this doesn’t mean we have to splurge on such styles right away. We need to be more selective when it comes to buying spring pieces because not all countries experience a consistent positive temperature streak once the spring months hit. Here are five transitional pieces that are practical when the weather becomes bipolar.

tp1

Basic Crew Sweater
You can never go wrong with a basic knit such as the crew sweater. It’s an easy go-to piece for the office or just for a casual day or night out.

 

Shop the look: Knit Sweater, $17.99, available at H&M

tp2

Knit Culottes
These bottoms are perfect for those who are completely over “fabric overloading” in winter but are also thick enough to withstand those sudden temperature drops in spring.  

 

Shop the look: Izabelah Pant, $229.50, available at Club Monaco

Knit Dresses
Knit dresses provide you with enough skin coverage and sensuality for a date or those spontaneous meet ups at the nearest bar. They are also appropriate in the office!

Trench Coats
Generally regarded as the best outerwear for spring, trench coats are both versatile and functional, providing a composed look anywhere you go.
