Spring is finally on its way! When the temperature starts to change, we know the struggle of experiencing multiple seasons in a day. The day starts cold as winter, then warms up to comfortable spring temperatures before cooling down again. There’s only one way to combat this: layering outfits! Layering clothing is the best way to feel cute and cozy this spring. Read on and get inspired to create your new favorite cute layered outfits!
Layering Basics
To put together the perfect layered outfits, you need to start with the foundation of your outfit: your base layer. A base layer is like a second skin, an extra layer between you and the environment. The ideal base layer features moisture-wicking technology to keep you comfortable and dry all day. First, start with women’s intimates, like comfy sports bras or plus size women’s shapewear. Next, women’s camis make a great base layer to keep your upper body warm.
If it’s a little too chilly for spring blouses by themselves, put a knit vest on top. On bottom, if it’s somewhere between shorts and jeans weather, opt for women’s capris, like athletic capris or women’s jeans capris. You could also wear a women’s poncho with a cami or short sleeves underneath. The poncho keeps your arms warm while providing air flow to keep you from overheating.
We all know the saying: April showers bring May flowers. Don’t worry, you can keep your feet dry without sacrificing your style. UGG® rain boots are the perfect addition to your spring outfit. For your rugged outdoor adventures, reach for stylish women’s Timberland boots. When you want something stylish and comfortable, nothing beats women’s UGG® sneakers.
How to Layer Dresses
It’s time to bring out the spring and summer dresses! So how do you layer women’s dresses? First, add a pair of women’s leggings under your dress or skirt. Skechers leggings are a fashionista favorite! Add a pair of ankle booties to complete the look. A new trend this spring, you can also add a pair of women’s jeans under a spring dress!
Up top, add a women’s fashion sweater, blazer, or denim jacket. To switch it up, add a t-shirt, a long-sleeved tee, or a turtleneck under your dress. You can break out your ladies’ skirts too—just pair it with a long winter coat! These styles look great in both straight size and plus size dresses.
If you want the best of both worlds, pair a women’s spring blouse or dress with a winter dress coat. You get that must-have spring style with cold-weather warmth!
