The hallmark of a true closet hero? Versatility. Meaning you can style it with multiple pieces, multiple ways, for multiple seasons. The five pieces below meet those criteria for us; here’s how to make the most of them.
THE COZY KNIT
Yes, the same sweater you’ve bundled up in for the last three months can stay relevant for the next two—simply swap out your base layer for something lighter, like a cotton tank, and add a leather skirt in a light, neutral hue. Finish the look with tonal flats and a bucket bag that picks up on the stripes in the sweater.

THE WHITE JEANS
The beauty of an off-white wash is that it can be worn 365 days a year (unlike its darker counterparts). For spring, wear it with pieces that exude the same type of elevated ease, like a faux-leather tee, a polished overshirt, and textured accessories that add visual interest.

THE JUMPSUIT
Styling a one-and-done for warmer weather is as simple as shedding the turtleneck, pulling down the zipper a few inches, and tying a light sweater around your waist. Light-reflecting finishes, like dainty gold jewelry and liquid highlighter dabbed onto cheekbones, keep the look fresh.

THE LONG SKIRT
Swishy and feminine with an asymmetrical hemline that flutters around the ankles, this skirt is surprisingly versatile: It’s as chic with a black turtleneck and boots (now) as it will be with a strapless knit and chunky sandals (later).

THE LIGHT LAYER
Hovering on the warmth scale somewhere between a cardigan and a coat, a field jacket is what you want to be wearing when it’s 70 degrees at noon but slightly nippy at night. Slip it over a sundress and zip up the boots you’ve been wearing since December for a transitional look that has legs.
