Spring is the trickiest dressing season of the year in North America. The mornings still bite; by mid-afternoon you are over-layered and uncomfortable. A working capsule has to handle a 15-degree swing in a single day without looking like you packed a duffel. Twelve pieces is enough.
The five anchors#
A trench (mid-weight, not summer cotton). A fine-gauge knit. A pair of straight or wide-leg trousers in a wool-blend that breathes. A button-down shirt in white or cream. A loafer or low boot you can wear daily. Build everything else around those five. The women's coats and jackets index is the cleanest place to start shopping the trench.
