As we approach the end of summer, it's time to start planning your wardrobe for cooler climes. The key to navigating this in-between period is a well-curated collection of solid, versatile staples you can rely on to take you from late summer into early autumn. Think dresses, tees and lightweight knits that can be worn on their own or layered together for those unpredictable temperatures. Here’s five of our top transitional pieces to help you ease into the new season with style. Keep reading…
The transitional dress
As temperatures drop and the seasons shift, it's a good idea to own a dress you can wear during the day and style into the evening. Texture plays a key role in your transitional wardrobe, and this flowy cotton dress is the perfect option. It's a sleeveless style, too, which is ideal for those spontaneous warmer days, and when worn with a denim jacket, it stays in rotation throughout autumn. And the best part? It has pockets - who doesn't love a dress with pockets?
The go-to shirt
A shirt is easily your transitional hero piece. It's light enough to keep you cool when the sun makes a surprise appearance yet can be layered as temperatures drop. A true wardrobe staple, it's a piece you'll reach for year after year. This season, why not mix things up with a pink striped shirt? Or, if you're loyal to the classic blue and white styles, we've got those covered, too.
Tailored trousers are a must
Next up on our list, and arguably the most essential item in the transitional outfit formula, are trousers. A well-chosen pair can anchor any outfit. Whether its tailored full-length styles paired with a Breton top or a boxy blazer for a polished office look, or white cropped jeans styled with a tee, a cosy knit, and metallic pumps for more of a laid-back vibe.
Hello, lightweight knitwear
For in-between seasons, jumpers, and cardigans become your go-to layering pieces. But as we're still in the awkward period, it's not time for chunky knits just yet. Instead, opt for lightweight jumpers and cardigans that offer just the right amount of warmth while still earning you style points. Our Tali cardigan makes a case for stylish yet transitional practicality. Wear it over vest tops and tees when you need that extra layer.
The hardworking tee
And finally, the tee - super versatile and perfect for transitional styling. Whether you prefer stripes, classic white, black, crew neck, or V-neck, you'll need one (or a few) for autumn. You're in luck, as we've designed the perfect slub t-shirt with rolled cuffs and side split seam detail for added interest. Made from cotton, it's ideal for layering with everything from jeans to skirts. Just don't forget to carry a jumper to sling over the shoulders so you're ready for any chill.
