Some people will tell you that April 25 is the ideal date for mild temperatures. But we’ll agree to disagree. Coming up soon, that 20-degree seasonal transition is certainly weather at its best. But it’s also a time that requires some painfully strategic layers: enough to stay warm but not so much coverage that your style gets completely muffled in the mix.
So what should you specifically put on when your weather app reads in the late teens, early 20s? The seven combinations below hit the mark, incorporating cozy knits, wool coats, and long-length hems. Read on, and don’t wait too long to try all the combinations. Winter has arrived, so here are seven outfit combinations to wear in 20-degree weather.
Leave the jacket at home—this almost completely covered look is all you need.
Pair these breezy, tailored pieces together for an effortless, seasonally appropriate ensemble.
Not only does plaid feel especially autumnal, but along with a crisp blouse, it also feels professional and comfortable enough for your 9-to-5 (and beyond).
Don’t put that flimsy summer dress away just yet. Simply toss a light wool coat on top—extra points for doing so in an eye-catching color combination.
Before you break out the heavy-duty wools, use a silk scarf to cover up once temps take a teeny-tiny drop.
If it’s not quite time to slip into tights yet, cover your legs a bit more with tall socks that pull your whole look together.
Over-the-knee boots are not just on trend—they also combat some of the chilly wind you might feel through a thigh-grazing skirt slit.
