Layer.
The key to bringing over some of the essentials of winter to spring is layering. Incorporating layers into your outfit is the perfect way to transition from chilly morning air, to sunny afternoons, to a night out with friends. A great way to do this is to mix those bright florals you’ve been dying to bust out with a warm winter flannel to cover up.

Keep the leather jacket.
But leave those leather pants in the closet for next winter. A leather jacket is an excellent way to add some edge to any outfit, and can be paired with virtually everything – from dresses to rompers to shorts.

Crop away.
A great way to recycle winter clothes is to “crop” or cuff. Whether it is cuffing your favorite pair of old jeans, or rolling up the sleeves of an acid wash oxford, cropping or cuffing winter essentials prolongs their life span well into spring.

H2T
Your wardrobe doesn’t stop with your clothes. Put those big heavy boots you’ve been living in all winter to rest and consider adding in sandals or colorful shoes to your regular outfits.

Add in some sparkle.
Nothing updates a wardrobe from winter to spring more than a bit of sparkle. Add some shine with a statement necklace, a pair of earrings, or a colorful headband in order to jazz up any winter staple.
