Hey y’all! Happy March! The year is flying by so fast, but, I have to say, I’m glad to see the spring months creeping in (even though it’s still cold outside). With Spring just around the corner, it’s time to think about wardrobe choices for the next season. During these transitional periods, it can be a little tricky. The sun is coming out, the temperatures look like they’re rising, but it’s still cold outside.
One trick I plan on using this season is a good third piece. Third pieces can really add that “oomph” you’re looking for when trying to complete a look. A third piece can be any accessory that compliments your outfit, and makes a statement. Belts, hats, scarves, bags, jackets… all third pieces. That third piece is what makes the girl you see walking down the street with a white tee and jeans look so chic.
For this transitional weather, jackets, hats, and lightweight scarves are all great third pieces. When you add these statement pieces to your wardrobe, they do the work for you so the rest of your outfit doesn’t require much.


Take a look at the pieces used to create this look: (1) a white v-neck, (2) a cut off medium wash jean… then, BOOM (3) a statement jacket. I was a little extra and added a contrasting statement bag, too.

I’ve also worn this jacket with a basic all black outfit. Whatever your “simple” fit is, just add that extra piece. It’ll create a fresh look without investing in multiple pieces for a whole new outfit. Trust me. Adding that third piece will make your fashion life a little easier.
Have fun adding those new third pieces to your wardrobe! Make sure you tag me in your third piece pics @tayloredbysydney, #tayloredbysydney .
