What to wear in the spring

As winter comes to an end and warmer weather arrives, your wardrobe will change with the season and temperature.

Thick wool sweaters and parkas can be tucked away for next fall and winter. Lighter colors, layers, breathable fabrics, and lightweight jackets are the best options for the spring.

If you’re shopping for new clothes, the best fabrics for warm weather are cotton, linen, tropical wool, and seersucker.

Wearing the right type of clothing will allow you to take layers off or add them on, depending on the weather. It also ensures that you look stylish during the spring.

Shirts

Short and long-sleeve t-shirts, linen button-down shirts, and chambray shirts will make you look good during the spring.

They’re lightweight, breathable, and can layer easily. When you’re buying a shirt, remember to choose lighter shades of color.

The recommended shirts are as follows:

  • Chambray shirt: Everlane Chambray Shirt (opens in a new tab).
  • Band collar shirt: Everlane Linen Band Collar Shirt (opens in a new tab).
  • Short-sleeve t-shirt: Everlane T-Shirt (opens in a new tab).
  • Long-sleeve t-shirt: Everlane The Organic Cotton Long-Sleeve Pocket Tee (opens in a new tab).

Outerwear

The best jackets and coats for springtime are lightweight, yet they still allow you to layer for warmth.

Wearing your fall and winter outerwear will cause you to overheat and sweat. On the flip side, wearing no jacket or coat can make you feel too cold.

Find lightweight outerwear that keeps you warm without being too hot or cold is the key.

Pants
