A lesson on spring layering: 5 ways to style your new season pieces.  

As the weather is starting to resemble Spring and the temperatures have risen noticeably, it's the best time to talk about spring looks. We've already seen the top men's fashion trends for Spring 2023, and now is a good time to talk about layering. If you belong to those who think that layering is only suitable for your winter looks, then you are wrong. Combining more clothes in one outfit can upgrade your style. Only if it is done in the right way. After all, even in Spring, there are days with low temperatures when you don't go around in jeans and T-shirts. Therefore, Spring layering is sometimes an option and sometimes an imperative. But how will you manage to do it properly?

What is Spring layering?

Starting from the general term, layering is dressing with multiple layers in the same outfit. The purpose is to keep you warm but at the same time to be able to remove some layers to adapt to the conditions of each space. As can be understood, Spring layering consists of lighter fabrics as the primary goal is style and then warmth. In any case, it is not just a coincidence that experts talk about the "art" of layering. This happens because choosing the right number of levels and also the right combination of levels between them is a difficult task. The colors and designs must blend harmoniously, while you must feel comfortable in your outfit and have freedom of movement.

5 steps for Spring layering

The beginning is from the base. Although these are the pieces that will be seen least of all, it is worth making a careful choice. A mistake that many people make is that they do not choose the right pieces for the base of the outfit, so the next levels do not stand correctly. 

On the top, it is good to choose a piece with short sleeves and light fabric. The bottom part can be thicker as no extra layers will be worn there. Of course, the choice of trousers also depends on the temperature of the day and the weather conditions. 

The next layer is usually a shirt or a light cardigan. Again the choice has to do with the heat. Also take into account the occasion, your destination and the character you have given to your look. The good thing about both of the clothes I already mentioned is that they give many options in case the temperature changes. You can tie them around the waist, put them on the shoulders or even close them in case it's cold. 

Your spring hoodie or sweater can be another layer. Either you choose to wear them over your shirt, or drape them over your shoulders and tie the sleeves in front. 

For semi formal and formal looks, don't forget the blazer. In fact, it is also ideal for smart casual outfits. It can be the ideal alternative to the previous level. In fact, it combines fantastically with a sleeveless thin vest. 

In conclusion, I have to repeat that the secret of the success of layering is the harmony in the final result. Of course, contrasts also have their charm, but it takes courage and knowledge to achieve a stylish outfit. If you don't feel the necessary confidence, it's better not to risk it.
