The days are longer, the air is warmer 🌿

Is winter behind us?! Don’t be fooled: en Avril, ne te découvre pas d’un fil¹

As much as I like to text-complain to my best friends “is it warm? is it cold? idk what to wear!!”, I mostly love getting creative with my wardrobe after months of cozy sweaters.

So today I’m sharing 4 styling ideas for this in-between season.

The best part is you can just play with what you have in your closet. But of course, I couldn’t resist adding some recent Vinted finds if you need extra inspo 😏

1. Sweater vest & a t-shirt

as seen on Rachel and Brad

Who needs sleeves when it’s over 15 degrees? Still, sometimes a t-shirt is too light. The sweater vest is the perfect layer: keeps you a bit warmer for the start and end of the day and you can just remove it during hottest hours of the day.

🔮 Vinted finds for you

1. Brown v neck cropped, XS/34, 22€

2. Light blue v neck, M/38, 12€

3. Red from Rodier, M/38, 15€, or one from Sisley, M/38, 20.50€

4. Green from Rodier, M/38, 9€

2. Skirts with short socks

If it’s over 17 degrees on a sunny day, you won’t be cold with bare legs as long as you wear cute socks and plan for extra layers for your upper body (yes, this is an exact science ⚗️).

🔮 Vinted finds for you

1. Pleated skirt, Alain Manoukian, S/36, 8€

2. Leather skirt, GAP vintage, S/36, 10€

3. Red skirt, Fendissime, M/38, 35€

4. White midi skirt, Anne Weyburn, M/38, 7€

---

3. All-in on beige

“soft is the word”

We’re talking beige pants, beige shirts, beige trench coats. It’s the perfect neutral, it’s flattering on everyone and it comes in a million shades for a monochrome look (who else can’t really tell cream and beige a part 🫠?)

🔮 Vinted finds for you

1. Shirt, vintage United Colors of Benetton, S/36, 15€

2. Wide pants, Fendissime, M/38, 55€

3. Trench coat, Nina Ricci, M/38, 45€ or this one from Courrèges, S/36, 185€ (spotted by my sis!)

4. Crop sweater, Acne Studios, M/38, 50€

4. Pops of pink

Beige is great but I love spotting outfits that are a bit more daring with color. And turns out pink goes with many colors: grey, brown, green, black, red (yes!). Perhaps pink is a neutral 🌸🩰🦩???

🔮 Vinted finds for you

1. Pants, Escada, M/38, 35€

2. Striped shirt, Figaret, M/38, 40€

3. Cardigan, United Colors of Benetto, S/36, 15€ or this Pierre Cardin sweater, M/38, 7€

4. Knit polo, Rodier, M/38, 14€ or a classic bright pink Lacoste polo like this one
