- Hello from New York city.
My name is Rajni Jacques,
I’m a creative and fashion director
as well as style consultant.
And we’re here with NET-A-PORTER’s Style SOS series,
where we are solving the biggest fashion dilemmas
of the season.
So for today’s dilemma, we're gonna figure out
how to transition your winter wardrobe into spring.
I’m gonna help guide you through this process.
We’re gonna play dress-up,
we’re gonna pull what we have in our closet,
what we have in my closet,
to create something new for the season.
Trust me, it’s gonna be fun.
So for the first look,
it’s all about pairing a winter coat
with a little itty-bitty dress underneath.
I love something that’s big and bulbous
and can kind of like hug the body,
so therefore, that's why I love this coat.
You could cinch it up, if you want,
you could wear it down.
There’s a myriad of ways that you can wear it.
And I love that I can pair it with anything
that’s in my closet, from jeans to a slip dress
to even something that’s kind of like this,
a nice ribbed long dress.
The cool thing is being sustainable
and learning how to mix and match things
that you’re going to purchase
and that you already have in your closet
to make and create something new.
OK, so for look two, it’s all about the sweater vest.
Sweater vests were so huge for this season,
and the cool thing, again,
you can kind of zhuzh it up, zhuzh it down.
I am wearing it bare-arm,
but you can throw anything that you want under it.
You know, a lightweight sweater,
a collared shirt, to get that, like,
you know, that preppier look.
For me, I kinda like to play it all down.
My go-tos are jeans all the time,
and then, because my arms are out,
the cool thing is you can kind of accessorize a little more.
A cool watch, even a nice little ring...
Listen, it’s all about going back into your closet,
taking what you already have
and mixing and matching it with something that you want,
and that’s exactly what I just did.
So for my third and final look,
it’s all about the leather pants.
They’re soft, they’re supple and they’re bad-ass.
In the winter, I usually wear it with the bulky sweater,
but we’re transitioning into spring,
so I went with a flowy top.
And why not go with a flowy top
that's over the top?
No pun intended.
But I love pairing it with gold,
gold earrings, gold shirt,
and... this cute little gold bag.
So it’s just bling, bling and bling.
This is my going-out look – let’s go.
And that’s your Style SOS:
how to transition your wardrobe from winter to spring.
Hopefully it helped.
See you next time.
