We had a long winter with snow showing up to surprise us all some weeks ago. Spring is finally here and we are loving it on most days. But on some days, it still feels a bit chilly. What kind of clothes should one wear in such weather? If you’re wondering which outfit’s the best for spring when it’s cold outside, then I’ve got you covered. You will find these spring clothing tips very useful.
- Make use of light layers
Time to give up the bulky wooly jumpers and go for a warmer and more spring-inspired approach. Spring is the best time to use layering to your advantage. Spring clothing is light and may not be able to withstand the cold. Layer your outfits with pieces made of materials that are warmer. Materials like cashmere or merino do great for those cold spring days.
- Rock your boots
In cold weather you have to keep those feet warm and no footwear achieves that better than boots. The warm fuzzy lining of the boots can keep the cold from coming in. The best part is that boots are stylish. Go for light coloured boots like tan, light grey or blush. The light colour complements the spring vibe.
- Wear a maxi skirt
Who said you can’t wear a skirt in the cold? Maxi skirts make a fine addition to the spring outfits. The reason is simple – on those particularly cold spring days, you can wear a pair of tights under the maxi skirt to keep warm. No one needs to know.
- Opt for jackets instead of coats
Coats are a huge reminder of the winter, but you don’t have to worry about wearing a coat when it’s cold outside. There are other warm alternatives you can swap your coats with. Blazers, bomber jackets and leather jackets make better spring alternatives for those cold spring days.
- Make denim your friend
Denim is a staple in the wardrobe even in the cold spring. The denim material is quite warm especially denim jackets. They look cool and laid back and they can provide the extra warmth most spring outfits can’t give. If you don’t have a denim jacket in your closet, make sure you get one this spring.
- Wear scarves
Scarves are elegant but most of all they keep your neck warm in a light way, which is perfect for the spring weather. Play around with colours that complement or add some contrast to your ensemble. But instead of a wooly scarf, opt for cashmere, merino or cotton. They are warm and stylish too.
- Add one spring item at a time
As much as you want to wear your spring clothing as soon as the first signs of spring emerge, it is wiser to transition into the new season one clothing item at a time. When the warmer spring weather kicks in you would have fully transitioned to spring clothing.

Love it, what a great post !!!
Thanks Sara.
Just why I love have kimonos and jackets around! They always are awesome when it’s cold but not that cold. Also boots are such a must have; ankle boots will precisely be much better for me. Anyway, you’re looking lovely.
Thank you 😊
Great tips Stella. I’ve been wearing maxi dresses as I’m finding the mornings quite chilly. Along with a cardigan I’m sorted for chilly mornings and warmer afternoons.
Oh goodie 😊
Good timing on these tips. The weather has been so wacky lately. I don’t know how to dress anymore.
Yes it has been up and down here too.
Great tips, I love the point about wearing maxi skirts. I have always thought it was not fashionable
It is Elizabeth. Thanks for reading.
I have dug my bomber jacket out of the wardrobe it is perfect for spring weather
Oh yes it is.
I think a scarf can be a really good idea as if big enough can act as a shawl if it gets colder and if it rains you can put it over your head to keep you dry!
Yes. I am always with a scarf.
I agree on the layers. I’m a big fan of layers, even in the winter, as it’s always hot in shops and restaurants when it’s cold outside!
Yes it is. Crazy weather. Thanks Lucy.
Great tips, especially about wearing denim. I wear a lot of denim all year round!
Thanks a lot. I love denim too!
Great post, it’s so hard knowing what to wear in this weather!
Yes it is.
