We’re (!!!) finally coming up on those hard to dress for (but oh so lovely) “in between days.” Where it’s springy but still nippy out. Winter clothes feel too wintery and spring clothes don’t seem right either.
It’s a little bit of a challenge, but I also kind of love it because it’s forcing me to rethink how I wear certain pieces in my closet.
I also love that this outfit is casual without being too casual. And can be layered accordingly depending on how the weather shifts throughout the day. (Which happens frequently on these “in-between” days.) Ditch the scarf if it warms up. Use the scarf as a shawl if you’re inside a chilly office or restaurant. Lose the coat and the scarf if the sun comes out.
These flats are the latest addition to my Margaux shoe fleet. They’re a little stiffer than the ballet flats so they did take one full day of wearing for the leather to warm up to my feet. But with that comes a more sophisticated and structured look.
Also, my jeans are my favorite from last spring. Just checked and they’re sold out, but I found a super similar (they look nearly identical!) pair somewhere else.
What’s your go-to “in between” day look?
Similar Trench Coat // White Tee // Scarf (way on sale right now!) // Similar Jeans // Ballet Flats // Tote // Similar Earrings (love these too)
You look fantastic in this classy style!

Carly, this outfit is so perfect, and so needed with the upcoming weather! I just got a tan trench, and am looking for inspiration for outfits, and you have been checking all my inspo boxes, lately!! Happy almost spring! 🙂

I love how you show your belt tied in a bow behind your back. I never would’ve thought to do that! Genius!!
This is perfect timing! It’s my first winter/spring in NYC (from Florida) and I’ve been at a loss on how to dress.
Best,
Katie

Any styling tips for those muddy/puddles everywhere days?
Those in between days are so hard to dress for!
My #1 item for in-between days is a denim jacket. I love that you can pair it over almost anything and it’s just the perfect weight.

I love how you tied the belt as a bow on the back, such a great idea!
Is the scarf really way on sale? Am I missing something? I only see it at $10 off. Please enlighten me because I love it but can’t afford $119! Thanks x
it’s originally $159 and it’s currently $89
I see it now! I’m in the UK…maybe that’s why it didn’t work for me yesterday. Thanks x
I love it! Your “in between days” are generally my normal days! 😉
I just purchased my first pair of Margaux and I am OBSESSED!! I got the demi in ballet pink and they needed zero break-in time and are now my new favorite shoes! Thanks for the recommendation!
I am obsessed with this outfit! The trench coat, blue jeans, and glossy flats make this such a cute and classy outfit.
