Warm Clothes To Warm Weather

Finally, right? Here on the East Coast we are losing our heavier coats and beginning to taste Spring. When I shot this look it was still cold, so I went for a transitional vibe that has the thick sweater instead of a coat. The sweater, a winter piece, mixed with the satin printed pants and white shoes (Isabel Marant and Madison Margiela, respectively) is the right blend of heavy and light, darker and bright. Transitional dressing is all about mixing textures, weights, and fabrics so that you don’t seem stuck in one particular season. The white shoes are prob my fav piece here; I love the fresh little nod to Spring despite the cold. A pop of white is a great way to begin to shift seasons, as well as the mental states and moods that come along with them. My cute little red earring was a nice coordinating detail. Silk pants have so many warm weather uses, like a white tank top, half tucked white button down, or a lighter slouchy cardigan with the sleeves bunched up (add bracelets!). I love this time, where it feels very exciting to start to venture out of hibernation and bask in the knowledge that things will always bloom again.
