Easy Outfit Ideas for That In-Between Spring to Summer Weather

You know that weird weather stretch where it’s warm by noon but you needed a jacket at 8am? Yeah. That one. It’s not quite summer, not quite spring, and your closet feels completely useless. You’re either sweating or freezing, and nothing seems to work.

Good news: this is actually one of the easiest times to put together a great outfit — you just need to know what to reach for. We just dropped some gorgeous new arrivals at SCB that are perfect for exactly this moment. Here’s how to wear them.

The Floral Cami: Your New Warm-Weather Go-To

A great cami top is the foundation of so many spring-to-summer outfits, and our newest arrival is one you’ll reach for constantly. The Floral Print Halter Neck Flowy Cami ($29) has a beautiful halter neckline that’s feminine and flattering, and the flowy fit keeps you cool as the temperature climbs. Wear it tucked into the Gingham Shorts for a fresh daytime look, or layer it under a cardigan for those cooler mornings. It’s one of those pieces that just works no matter what the weather decides to do.

The Eyelet Top That Goes With Everything

Eyelet fabric is one of those textures that instantly feels like warm weather — it’s light, it’s pretty, and it has just enough detail to make a simple outfit feel special. The Eyelet V-Neck Short Sleeve Top ($27) is a new arrival that pairs beautifully with denim, shorts, or a flowy skirt. The V-neck is universally flattering, and the short sleeve is perfect for that in-between temperature sweet spot. Pair it with the RISEN Flare Jeans below for an easy outfit that looks completely put together.

The Flare Jean That Makes Every Outfit Better

A great pair of jeans is the backbone of transitional dressing, and these are the ones to have right now. The RISEN High Rise Flare Jeans with Seam Detail Waistband ($68) are a brand new arrival and they are so good — the high rise is flattering and comfortable, the flare silhouette feels current and elongating, and the seam detail on the waistband adds a polished touch that sets them apart. Wear them with the Eyelet Top and sandals for a casual chic outfit that works from coffee to dinner.

The Gingham Shorts for Warmer Days

When the afternoon heats up and jeans feel like too much, reach for the Gingham Plaid Tie Elastic Waist Lace Patchwork Hem Casual Shorts ($31). The gingham print is classic and fresh, the elastic waist means they’re genuinely comfortable all day, and the lace patchwork hem detail makes them feel boutique-special rather than basic. Pair them with the Floral Halter Cami for a coordinated warm-weather look that’s effortlessly chique.

The Layer That Ties It All Together

Even on warmer days, a light layer gives you flexibility. The Woven Right Rib-Knit Open Front Cardigan ($34) is lightweight enough to toss in your bag and stylish enough to actually want to wear it. Layer it over any of the tops above for a polished, put-together look that handles whatever the weather throws at you.

Easy Outfit Formulas for In-Between Weather

Cool Morning, Warm Afternoon: Floral halter cami + RISEN flare jeans + open cardigan + sandals. Lose the cardigan when it heats up.

Casual Errand Day: Eyelet V-neck top + gingham shorts + white sneakers + crossbody. Comfortable but cute outfits don’t get easier.

Lunch or Coffee Date: Floral cami + flare jeans + loafers + delicate jewelry. Done in five minutes, looks like you tried.

Weekend Outing: Eyelet top + gingham shorts + flat sandals + straw bag. Fresh, easy, and totally chique.

A Few Tips That Actually Help

Dress for the afternoon, layer for the morning. Most of us dress for 8am and regret it by noon. Build your outfit around the warmest part of your day.

Keep a layer in your bag. A lightweight cardigan takes up almost no space and saves you every single time.

Stick to breathable fabrics. Cotton, eyelet, and soft knits work in both warm and cool temps without making you miserable either way.

In-between weather doesn’t have to mean in-between style. With the right new arrivals and a few smart layering tricks, you can look put together no matter what the forecast says.
