Layering for Spring Showers

Spring in San Francisco can be a cruel season. The weather often shifts from warm days to rainy and foggy nights. What is the key to successful dressing in the city? We've said it before and we'll say it again--LAYERING!

Start With a Clean Base

For this look I stared with black denim and a tailored denim shirt. If I get warm and end up back at my base there is still enough interest with the denim and my silver flats to keep the look compelling.

Add a Touch of Print

Scarves are a SF accessory necessity. We recommend always having a great solid, two tone print and multi print in your wardrobe. I chose this animal print inspired design (its a good alternative for those who don't like leopard). The pop of blue coordinates with the denim and poncho without being a direct color match.

Finish with A Outwear Piece with Panache

Outerwear should be your secret weapon for spring dressing. A wool layer may not feel appropriate, but it's a year-round fabric for the city. The lighter shade and playful fringe keeps the poncho relevant for spring and on trend.

Stay Stylish,
