Spring is flying by, which means summer will be here before we know it. This time of year is all about those easy pieces you can wear now and continue styling all summer long. Think dresses, white denim, raffia accessories, and lightweight layers that work for everything from lunch with friends to vacation dinners. Today, I’ve rounded up my favorite spring-to-summer transitional outfits, all looks that feel classic, chic, and easy to mix into your everyday wardrobe this season. These pieces are also great for travel because you can mix and match them several different ways. Some of you may remember these looks from our Chico's LIVE segments! We have our next one on June 3rd at 3PM CST, so be sure and tune in on either Chico's Instagram or Facebook feed.

For sizing purposes, we both wear a Chico's size 0, which translates to a regular size 4. I size down a half size in their shoes.

Spring to Summer Transitional Styles

Let's start with two dresses that you need now! This lace cut-out white dress is just gorgeous for summertime. Style it with these seashell sandals and this bamboo bucket bag for a fun summer look. Another dress you need is this denim midi dress. I love the pockets and structured style. It also comes in white, perfect for summer events. Laura styled it with these espadrille slide sandals and this scenic clutch.

Two more midi dresses you definitely want in your wardrobe! This linen-blend metallic striped shirtdress is the epitome effortless, chic, and comfortable. I love the stitched cinch waist making it flattering. I styled it with these gorgeous embroidered ballet flats and a statement necklace. Laura is wearing this fabulous lace trim shirtdress, the perfects statement dress for summer! It also comes in black if you prefer a neutral color. She styled it with these espadrille wedge sandals and this toggle charm necklace.

For a more coastal feel, this printed midi dress is gorgeous! I styled it with this belt and this statement necklace. I am also wearing these mesh espadrille flats that I love! Laura is wearing a great LBD for summer. This embroidered cotton shirtdress is a lightweight and effortless dress. It also comes in white. I love that the belt is removable, giving you an option for a more relaxed fit. She completed her look with these espadrille wedge sandals and this statement necklace.

Hello summer! We are beach ready in these styles. I'm wearing this palm printed no-iron blouse and shorts combo. I love an all-print look for travel, but you could easily mix and match these pieces with solid white or denim. Laura is wearing this red no-iron blouse and these lightweight wide-leg capris (fit is relaxed). Style these looks with beach-y accessories like this seashell crossbody, these seashell sandals, espadrille slides, and this metallic straw sun hat.

White denim is a must for transitional season! These girlfriend colorblock jeans are a fun twist on a classic style. If you need a great white jeans, then these white girlfriend jeans are a must. They fit great and are so comfortable. Style your white jeans with easy pieces like this striped shirt, this no-iron linen shirt, or layer with a white denim jacket.

As you can see, we both love these eyelet ankle pants. They're made from a special sculpting material that is so flattering! Above, I styled my pants with this coral striped cotton shirt, the perfect lightweight top for summertime. Laura styled her red pants with this textured tee, this denim leopard-print jacket, and this fun beaded statement necklace.

Spring-to-summer dressing doesn’t have to be complicated. I always gravitate toward pieces that are chic and versatile enough to wear multiple ways throughout the season. As always, I recommend trying a few standout items and building your looks around them.

Which look is your favorite? xoxo Tanya
