Dresses are always the perfect option for keeping you fashionable and chic. When the weather gets warmer, it’s likely that a flattering printed dress is the first thing you want to break out of your closet. Instead of a slinky sundress that might make you cold in the unpredictable spring weather, a long sleeve frock is a must-have on our list of transitional pieces. It allows for the loose and flowing fashion that we love about spring style, but it will also keep you warm on the chillier days of the season.

An ultimate winner in the world of transitional pieces, the ¾ sleeve top is a much-needed addition to your spring wardrobe. The mid-length sleeves are the perfect way to ensure that your temperature reaches the right balance during the flighty spring weather. You can pair these stunning shirts with pants or a skirt depending on the weather forecast that day, and the shorter arm length ensures that the sleeves are never in your way—a win-win situation! Plus, you can choose a fun and psychedelic print that is sure to make your outfit pop, no matter the occasion.

Rather than embracing the heat of a full-on jacket, and edgy cover is the perfect way to embrace a chic style while still adding some warmth to your ensemble. Choose a mid-length cover with a fun pattern and texture and layer it over a simple dress or a basic shirt and jean combo. Beyond adding a fashionable edge to your ensemble, it also allows you to remove the cover when you get too warm and slip back into it when the weather gets chilly.

Vests are another transitional wardrobe must-have that are perfect for crafting the ideal spring outfit. Not only do they add another layer of fabric that will keep your core warm, they also add a certain level of interest to every outfit. Choosing a simple, solid-colored vest allows you to layer it over any top, creating a multitude of outfit options perfect for spring.
