It’s mid-February which means I’m stuck in that awkward time between winter and spring where I’m not quite ready to get out my lightweight floral frocks but I’m also officially over wearing heavy turtlenecks. I have however been leaning on trusty layers that I can throw over practically everything I own. There are three items that I consider the perfect in-between-season layers that I’ve been wearing non-stop lately—easy to throw on with my sweats, jeans, or comfy dresses for my daily walks and errands.
To be perfectly honest, there’s nothing particularly noteworthy about these pieces—you may even call them “boring”. What they are however are solid reliable items I can turn to time and time again when I need to throw something easy over a top and jeans. They’re also perfect pieces to take me seamlessly into spring. So if you’re looking for some dependable pieces to help you navigate through this tricky transitional time, take a peek below at my go-to layers (all under $45!) and shop more of my favorite items I have my eye on right now from Amazon.
