Ready to hit the refresh button on your winter wardrobe? Here are a few pieces to boost your closet and your spirit. These mid-season numbers will make the style transition from winter to spring a little easier, and, best of all, some are even on sale.
The Free People floral tapestry peasant blouse ($151 at Hudson's Bay) is the perfect hue to brighten up any outfit – whatever the time of year.
Wide-leg, high-waisted, cropped flairs are the must-own style for spring. The new shape is everywhere. I like the Rayner denim from J. Crew ($182). With a deep-black wash, these pants are versatile enough to wear to the office and dinner, this season and next.
Expect platforms will be huge this spring. These Vince Camuto Elric studded platforms in toffee at Hudson’s Bay for $195, can be paired with cream-coloured tights, or for an edgier look wear with socks in the winter, and without in spring and summer.
We might see our share of grey, damp days, but we still need some cool shades on hand for when the sun does actually peek through. Pick up the Shadow shades, $125, from the C4 X Susie Wall Collection (a collab between the local style maven and West Coast brand, Claudia Alan).
This creamy, dreamy dress from Wilfred, on sale for $150 (from $225), would look darling with tights or over a pair of flairs during the cool months, then with sandals or platforms when the weather warms up.
Olympic Village beauty mecca Kiss and Makeup carries an array of skin brighteners, but this Tata Harper lip and cheek tint, $41, in “Very Sweet” shines. Brighten up your smile and your mood with this lovely hue.
Every closet needs a go-to jumpsuit. The A.P.C. Texas jumpsuit in thin Italian denim is a light-weight option that will work with booties or flat sandals – available at Oliver + Lilly’s and on sale for $234 (down from $468).
