While it seems like spring is in full swing everywhere else, it’s definitely still chilly here in Seattle. I am eyeing so many new spring clothes, but am doing my best to resist until it gets a little warmer (although I did pick up a few items). Until then, I am thinking of ways to re-wear many of my fall and winter items as we (very, very) slowly transition to spring fashion. Here are some tips on how to transition your winter clothes to spring!
Two of my favorite items I wore throughout fall and winter are these over the knee boots and my trusty faux leather jacket. I don’t think I’ve worn them together on the blog before, but here’s a simple outfit with them together! This look is classic and can be easily replicated. Who doesn’t have a leather jacket and over the knee boots? Well, if you don’t, these are wardrobe essentials that you should invest in! I’ve had this jacket for several years now, and I’m sure you know I’ve worn these over the knee boots so much this year.
Here are four ways you can transition your winter clothes to spring:
- Layer your faux leather jacket over any outfit. Whether it’s with a simple over the knee boots outfit like in this post or with a pleated maxi skirt outfit, the options are endless!
- Style over the knee boots with a pretty skirt or dress. Not only is this a chic combination, it’s a great way to incorporate more flirty spring items! Examples here and here.
- Continue wearing your trench coat into spring. A classic spring combination is pairing your trench coat with a striped top. Add some floral prints and you have yourself a very cute outfit! Examples here and here.
- Booties are a fall and winter favorite. Good news – you can still wear them during spring! Pair them with a cardigan and light scarf, or better yet, a spring dress! Examples here and here.
I’m sure there are many fall and winter items that you can wear through spring but these are definitely the ones that I can always rely on. What are your favorite fall and winter items that you like to wear all year long? Let me know in the comments section how you transition your winter clothes for spring!

I actually don’t have any of those items in my wardrobe *covers face*. They work so well the way you’ve styled them.

Definitely a timely piece—since spring’s weather can be so picky–your OTK boots are one of my fave outfit staples that you’ve styled through your blog.
Happy Spring!!

These are some great suggestions for transitioning winter clothes to spring. I was just thinking that I was going to have to retire me OTK boots, but they actually work great for Spring with the right accessories. And I love a leather jacket with a pleater skirt or cute dress! I’ve looked ahead and the forecast and it looks like rain is sticking around Portland for a few weeks, so I’m definitely not ready to put away my winter clothes just yet.

What a cute outfit, girlie! I love that jacket, it’s so tailored and looks so good on you and paired with that flowy top and I love it paired with those OTK boots, too! I also agree with the tips you’ve shared on transitioning into spring because we really haven’t had much spring-like weather here either; winter is lingering way too long already! Thanks so much for sharing, beautiful, and I hope you have a wonderful week ahead!

LOVE a good trench coat or a leather jacket to carry you through the early parts of Spring!
Also, loving this outfit! It’s like you Spring-ified all the best parts of winter in one outfit!
That’s a very cool look and great tips 🙂 I wish there’s spring season in my country. We only have Rainy and Summer seasons. It’s already summer in the Philippines.

Super cute, as usual. I think over the knee boots are great for spring. They can be really cute with a dress too! I like the jacket too because it doesn’t appear too heavy like it’s meant for winter. I love a good light leather jacket for spring! In Phoenix people are already wearing shorts now haha. It’s intense!
-Emily http://www.coatandcoffee.com
Funny to think that the outfit is basically a white top with jeans bu you nailed it! The jacket and the boots make the whole thing fabulous yet simple and cozy. Definitely taking some notes 😉

Hi sweetie,
thank you for sharing your tips. I admit that I also style OTK boots differently in spring and wear a trench coat instead of a thick, down feather jacket.
