Trends come and go, wardrobes get refreshed, but trans-seasonal pieces that you can wear any day, any year, and (mostly) anywhere? Those are forever.
There are a few wardrobe staples you can never have enough of. In fact, you may even stock up on more than one of the same piece so you can wear it twice as much.
However attached you get to your wardrobe staples, and however many versions you amass over the course of many shopping trips, all you need to remember is that quality trumps quantity every time. Here are 5 trans-seasonal pieces you should invest in, they’ll be worth every dollar!
1. Light wash jeans
Denim pieces rarely ever go out of fashion, and for good reason!
They’re long-lasting, robust, and come in a variety of cuts and styles to flatter every body shape. But the light wash denim jean is our particular hero this time around.
Light wash denim in its pale blue hue is the epitome of casual style in our books. There are very few things you can’t do with a great pair of light wash jeans in your arsenal. Whether you get them with a frayed edge, a bootleg cut, a high waist, or an embroidered detail the styling opportunities will always be endless.
2. Lightweight jackets
A lightweight jacket serves both a practical and stylistic purpose, which is why it has earned its place as a trans-seasonal staple piece.
We’ve all been there. You’re just about ready to step out, your outfit is polished and complete, and you’re excited to start your day, but that all dissipates when you step out the door. One gust of cool wind and you realize that your bulkier coats are too heavy-duty for the weather and your outfit just won’t cut it.
A lightweight jacket is the dream piece on these days. Whether it takes the form of a bomber jacket, leather jacket, denim jacket, a shrug, or even a blazer, a jacket that can travel with you will make you unstoppable.
3. Button-up shirts
Everyone needs pieces in their wardrobe that are so versatile you can make them look like a completely different piece with every wear.
A button-up shirt is the perfect answer to the call.
Tuck a button-up shirt into a pencil skirt for a workwear look. Layer it over a mini dress for a more contrasting look. Wear it with high-waist jeans for a classic casual look. Style it with leggings and a cute, lacy top for a more daring look. Pair it with a leather skirt for a night out. The list goes on, and the button-up shirt delivers stunning style every time.
4. Printed skirts
Statement earrings are a fun way to add some sparkle to your wardrobe, statement tops can show off your unique style, but we’re obsessing over statement skirts when it comes to trans-season staple pieces.
A great skirt that stands out because of its print, cut, color, length, and material makes for a mustt-have wardrobe addition.
A printed skirt can be worn with a sweater and knee-high boots in colder months, or styled with a simple tee in summer. Whatever look you put together with a statement skirt, it’s bound to look elegant and endlessly feminine.
5. Slides
They may have gotten their start as loungewear, but slides now come ready for all occasions.
You can get them with the classic single strap, buckle details, leather patterns, cut-outs, and so much more. Step right in, slide them on, and you’re good to go!
Slides are comfortable, easy to maintain, easier to wear, and work great with jeans, dresses, skirts, and really any look you can imagine. Once you have them in your wardrobe, they’re difficult to shake.
