After what feels like centuries of grim, wet winter; spring has finally sprung (meteorological spring started on 1 March).
The weather seems to have gotten the memo, with sightings of the sun already starting to transform the mental wellbeing of people up and down the nation – including yours truly.
At the beginning of the season, however, the transitional weather can be particularly hard to predict. You might leave the house feeling pretty chilly, start sweating on your lunch break, and be back to seeing your breath again by sunset.
The key to dressing right for the season is by layering, but it doesn’t have to be all function, no fashion.
Here’s a list of some of the best (and most chic) layerable buys on the high street to get you started.
