My transitional spring uniform has been these straight jeans with flats (either a ballet or Sambas), a sweater or blouse, and a long jacket layer over. You can get such range with this formula from “athleisure chic” to a little more feminine and polished like pictured above!
This post features a few elevated, organic cotton pieces that will mix and match well into spring and summer. I’ve shared this cotton lace blouse many times and it remains one of my most petite-friendly Sézane finds! I usually wear it just with a skin-tone bra, or you can do a cami for more coverage (note: blouse is made of non-stretch cotton lace). I finally got my hands on the Scott trench in a size 0 (as a press gift) – you can see a more clear fit photo here of the size 2 on me.
A crisp blue shirt always feels quintessentially spring for me. This is the Tomboy style (reviewed here last summer) which I like for a slightly oversized, “borrowed from the boys” fit. If you’re considering either this or the Max shirt, I found the Max to be much too oversized for my frame. These sandals and tote bag are also great practical yet elevated pieces, and traveled with me on the kids’ spring break recently!
