Seasonal Transitions: Making Your Favorite Pieces Work Year-Round

Hello, fashion friends! Welcome to day eight of our blog series. Today we’re sharing tips on how to wear your favorite clothes across all seasons, getting the most value from each piece.

Wear Your Favorites More Often

Don’t you hate putting away clothes you love just because the weather changes? With a few smart tricks, many pieces can work almost year-round:

  • You save closet space (no more seasonal swapping)
  • You get more wear from clothes you love
  • Your outfit options multiply
  • You build a more cohesive wardrobe
  • You shop less, which helps your wallet and the planet

Let’s look at how to make this work!

Summer to Fall: Keep the Summer Vibes Going

As temperatures cool, you can still wear your summer favorites:

Layer Under Summer Dresses

  • Add a thin turtleneck or long-sleeve tee underneath
  • Wear skin-tone or colorful tights as it gets cooler
  • Find a cardigan in a color that matches the dress pattern

Summer Tops Work Longer

  • Layer with open button-up shirts or light jackets
  • Add a scarf in fall colors
  • Pair with darker pants or skirts for a seasonal feel

Try This: Our floral Lily Top works into fall paired with dark jeans, ankle boots, and a caramel cardigan.

Fall to Winter: Stay Cozy Without Hiding Your Style

When real cold hits, you can still use many fall pieces:

Smart Layering is Key

  • Wear thin heat-tech layers under regular clothes
  • Add a vest between your shirt and coat for extra warmth
  • Use thin wool socks with fall shoes to extend their wear

Focus on Upper Body Warmth

  • If your core stays warm, you can be more flexible elsewhere
  • A great winter coat makes almost any outfit work in cold weather
  • Warm scarves, hats and gloves add warmth without hiding your clothes

Try This: Our Rebecca Skirt still works in winter with warm tights, boots, and a matching sweater.

Winter to Spring: Brighten Up Gradually

As flowers start blooming, transition your winter wear:

Lighten Your Layers

  • Keep wearing winter tops but switch heavy coats for denim jackets
  • Remove one layer from your winter outfit formula
  • Start showing ankles again with cropped pants

Add Spring Colors

  • Pair winter neutrals with one spring-colored accessory
  • Switch dark scarves for lighter, brighter ones
  • Try white shoes instead of black or brown

Try This: Our cozy Emma Sweater works in spring over a collared shirt with light-colored pants.

Spring to Summer: The Easy Transition

As temperatures rise, adapt your spring favorites:

Simple Switches Make Big Differences

  • Roll sleeves up or choose short sleeves
  • Switch closed shoes for sandals
  • Remove underlayers completely
  • Choose lightweight bags instead of heavier ones

Try This: Our Vintage-Inspired Blouse works with light shorts and sandals instead of the pants and loafers you wore in spring.

Five Pieces That Work All Year

Some items naturally transition better than others:

  1. Button-up shirts – layer in winter, wear alone in summer
  2. A-line skirts – add tights for winter, go bare-legged in summer
  3. Light cardigans – wear over tanks in summer, layer under coats in winter
  4. Midi dresses – endless layering possibilities for any weather
  5. Ankle boots – work with pants all winter, with dresses all summer

Color Tips for Year-Round Wear

Certain colors transition more easily across seasons:

  • Navy (less harsh than black in summer)
  • Olive green (works in every season)
  • Burgundy (feels rich in winter, unique in summer)
  • Medium blue (never out of place)
  • Warm beige (lighter than camel but works year-round)
