Autumn is just around the corner, and so it won’t be long before September’s cooler climes take full effect. When navigating this in-between period, it’s important to rely on a solid foundation of wardrobe essentials – think tailoring, light jackets, even a boot or two – all of which can be worn on their own or layered together.
We’ve mapped out 10 transitional outfits to help ease you into the new season effortlessly and, of course, elegantly. In our opinion, there’s no closet classic quite like a go-with-everything leather jacket. Offering up the perfect amount of edge, the style staple can be worn with a chunky knit or even over a crisp shirt dress for a contemporary take on workwear.
Next up on our list, and probably the most important item in the transitional outfit formula, is tailoring. Whether it’s a pair of tailored shorts paired with an easy tank top or a boxy blazer throw over jeans, this is a wardrobe category that will continue to deliver. Another perennial staple in the lightweight layer category is the throw-on slip dress, which will serve for every occasion; from work to dinners to events.
