Chambray is versatile enough to wear everywhere from the park to the beach. This J.Crew Classic Chambray Pullover ($78) features easy roll-up sleeves and a relaxed silhouette.
Athleta Cutie Crop Jacket
At once sporty and sophisticated, the Athleta Cutie Crop Jacket ($98) begs to be worn over everything from flippy spring dresses to crisp trousers. The chic moto-inspired style offers a comforting layer when the wind picks up---or simply when you want to work a little edginess into your mix.
Wayf Crepe Shift Dress
Is there anything the Wayf Crepe Shift Dress ($59) doesn't have? In addition to its pattern of beautiful blossoms, its long sleeves and perfect length make it a top pick for anything---date night, the office, or lunch with the ladies.
Rachel Pally Paris
Never underestimate the power of a maxi dress, like Rachel Pally Paris ($61.50). A mesmerizing print gives it a nudge of visual intrigue, and it's easy to acclimate to your environment. Warm it up with a denim jacket or soft cardigan, or go bare-armed on a balmier day.
The Limited Exact Stretch Cropped Pants
It's not quite wool pants weather, nor is it exactly time to break out the shorts. Slip instead into a pair of The Limited Exact Stretch Cropped Pants ($39.90), which look perfectly cute with a tank and lightweight cardigan.
Caslon Convertible Maxi Skirt
Consider yourself in love with the Caslon Convertible Maxi Skirt ($48). This may be the one piece that transitions from winter to spring to summer and even to fall! When the mood strikes you, wear it as a maxi skirt. And when it's unbearably hot, wear it as a hot midi dress.
