We’re halfway through spring already, and only a month away from the official start of summer. That means no matter what part of the nation you live in, it’s probably starting to get nice and temperate. This transitional season – between spring and balmy summer – may seem like a difficult one to tackle, but luckily there are ways to mix and match pieces you probably already have in your closet for a seamless and stylish transition.
Look no further than today’s round-up of warm-weather outfit picks. All you need to tie the look together is your signature fade or pomp (but in case you’re looking for new hairstyles to try out, check out our infographic of the trendiest hairstyles of 2015 here).
1. For those uber hot days when you’re just not feeling shorts…try rolling up your pants for a laid-back vibe. A nautical palette and comfy canvas sneaks make this outfit perfect for a day out on the Venice boardwalk.
2. For days when you want to push the fashion envelope, take a cue from style blogger DG Manila. This outfit is an interesting play on textures. The polka-dot button down is an unexpected feature tucked underneath a basic denim jacket, and those gold-strapped sneakers are a street-chic conversation piece.
3. Ah, chinos, the good ol’ standby. Pair with a short-sleeved denim button-down and sunglasses to keep it casual.
4. Take it from Philip Crangi, the mastermind behind Giles & Brother, to know how to dress for any occasion. We’re digging the low v-neck t-shirt and eclectic jewelry he’s wearing in this GQ photo shoot. Add your favorite jewelry to a basic tee like Crangi to broadcast your own look.
5. The popular man bun goes nicely with a loose muscle tank and sunglasses for days at the beach.
6. Get extra mileage out of your long-sleeved shirt by simply rolling up the sleeves. Cuffed denim pants add a fun retro vibe.
7. Beanies need not be restricted to winter, as shown on the guy from Taylor Swift’s music video. Throw one on during those chilly summer nights with some classic board shorts.
What’s your go-to piece for that transition between spring and summer?
