Layering for Transitional Weather

The trick to transitional-weather dressing is thin layers you can remove, not one thick layer you're stuck wearing all day.

Start with a lightweight tee, add a shirt or overshirt you can leave unbuttoned, and top it with a jacket that packs down small enough to tie around your waist once the sun's out.

Fabric choice matters as much as the number of layers — cotton and linen blends breathe far better than synthetic fleece once the temperature climbs.
