Fashion dilemma of the week
WHAT DO I WEAR WHEN THE WEATHER IS SO PRECARIOUS?
From slithering highways in your car because of a sudden downpour of rain to stopping on your bike on your way home to take off your jacket because of the heat. Odds are, this week you’ve been dealing with both situations because it looks as though the weather gods are trying to drive us mad (at least in Europe they are). Problem is, what are you even supposed to wear when the weather is so precarious?
What you need is a versatile outfit. You want to work with layers so that when it’s warm, you can take something off, and when it’s cold, you can put something on. While looking fashionable of course. The fun part about layering is that you can work with different materials, color and prints. Don’t want to look too striking? Go for the ton sur ton trend. Material wise, you can go all out. From lace to metallics: let the mixing and matching begin.
A bomber jacket is something you really can’t miss in your closet this season. Even a lace bomber jacket. Pair it with a pretty blouse in the same color, and when the sun is out, you’ll just whip our your sunglasses and take off your jacket and surprise everyone with the cool embroidery on the shoulder and sleeves of your blouse.

When the weather forecast isn’t entirely clear, a sweater is always a good idea. Just make sure you’ve got a nice top on underneath, just in case the sun does decide to make an appearance. Pair it with sneakers and a cool skirt and you can battle any kind of weather the weather gods throw your way.
