Spring is coming hard and fast, but February and March can still be chilly. We are faced with the issue of wanting to dress in spring clothing, but the weather forces us to wear clothing that is warm. So, today, I’m going to give you the answer by showing how to layer for a smooth transition to spring.

To make it easier for you to get the links to my outfits, Chico’s has set up a storefront for me with all the clothing I’m wearing!!! Once the store opens up, you can scroll through the items until you find the piece you’re looking for.

Layering! Layering your clothing is the answer to a smooth transition from winter to spring. You want to pick items that are lightweight so you don’t get too hot but that is heavy enough for you to stay warm. The Short Sleeve Knit Poncho in Olive looks fabulous and adds enough warmth so that I’m comfortable. I love this color, but the poncho is also available in black and would look great over a white button-down. I’m wearing an S/M, which fits me perfectly.

This comfortable and stylish casual outfit is a perfect spring transition outfit. The Poplin Stripe Shirt is lightweight but has long sleeves for added warmth. This button shirt is made from a breathable and easy to maintain fabric. The French Blue stripes are a classic design that you can wear all year and can be dressed up or down.

I’m all about details, and the smocked cuffs on this shirt are adorable! I look for clothing that has special details since that gives the outfit visual interest and sets it apart from other items you pass on the street.

Don’t forget to add jewelry to your outfits; they give it the polished look we are after. The Navy & Gold Tone Link Bracelet and Olive Thread Wrapped Hoops finish the look.

Speaking of details, you might have noticed the Girlfriend Fray Hem Jeans. Finding a great pair of jeans is not an easy task. Chico’s Girlfriend jeans fit great, and their exclusive Hidden Fit technology for a tummy-trimming fit is a much-appreciated detail. These jeans manage to hold me in where needed and to be comfortable and relaxed at the same time. I’m wearing my usual .5 size in Chico’s pants and jeans.

Other than needing a pedicure, which I’ve thankfully now gotten, these Neutral Modern Heels are perfect for the upcoming Spring and Summer months. The raffia-wrapped heels are one of those details I mentioned earlier. These heels have padding for a comfortable fit and a modern look that will go great with dresses, shorts, pants, etc. I’m wearing my usual size 9, and they fit true to size.

My favorite way to dress is what I call Elevated Casual, and this gorgeous outfit is exactly what I’m referring to. The outfit is still casual and comfortable, but it looks elevated and put together.

Stripes are huge this spring! I couldn’t resist pairing this Stripe Square Neck Tank Top with this modern Tweed Jacket. The striped tank has a square neck for a modern detail, and it is one that you’ll wear on repeat this spring and summer. I’m wearing a size 1, which fits me great.

The Tweed Jacket looks great coming and going. The frayed trim and polished buttons are details that make this jacket a standout item. It will be the star of every outfit, and you’ll get lots of compliments on it. This jacket looks fabulous with the white No Stain Girlfriend Fray Hem Ankle Jeans, but it would look great with a pair of Wide Leg Jeans, too.

The No Stain Girlfriend Fray Hem Ankle Jeans are powered by Stain-Repel, Bright-White™ technology; they stay white longer and repel water-based spills. Come on…who doesn’t love that? I love the fit of these jeans that are slightly relaxed but not loose and baggy.
