Although the weather is still a little cold, we’re already dreaming of springtime, and we’re sure you’re too. But instead of buying a whole new wardrobe, we’re looking for statement pieces that will transform the winter and spring garments we already have into contemporary and fashionable looks. So, inspired by the trends we spotted at Fashion Week Spring Summer 22 and the outfits fashion-savvy women are wearing, here are seven outfit ideas for cold sunny days.

Something Green
Fashion enthusiasts have adopted vibrant green as this year’s fav colour. We’ve seen this hue on Roksanda, Emilia Wickstead, and Victoria Beckham’s runways, in the streets, and on social media, either from head-to-toe or in statement accessories like Bottega Veneta’s SS22 bags that have the power to transform any outfit magically.
Gelatto Coats
As soon as spring approaches, our longing for pastel colours grows exponentially. And since it’s still cold, we selected some fantastic ideas for Gelatto coats to brighten up your outfits and give them a sunny spring vibe. So, throw an ice blue coat over a suit or dress for a sleek office look as delicious as ice cream.
Teddy Accessories
After the Teddy coats, now it’s time for accessories in fluffy shearling to add fun to your looks. Whether it’s shoes, a bag, scarf or hat, wearing faux fur accessories on cold sunny days is a great idea and styling trick to update your winter and spring outfits.
New Stripes
As usual, we can’t wait to bring our striped Breton tees out of the wardrobe for spring. But in 2022, one of the significant trends we’re seeing is black and white broad vertical stripes like Schiaparelli, By Malene Birger, Brøgger, and Carolina Herrera presented at SS22 Fashion Week. You can also go for colourful vertical lines like Marni, Loro Piana, and Bottega Veneta did. Finally, this is the ideal print for petite women as it elongates the silhouette.
Comfy clogs
Chunky clogs made their comeback last year, but currently, we’re seeing fashionistas opting for comfortable flat clogs. These on-point shoes will bring effortlessness to your outfits, and you can wear them both with socks on cold evenings and without, on hotter sunny days.
Madame Bouclé
The classic and lady-like bouclé is one of those timeless fabrics that instantly elevate any outfit, and a bouclé jacket is your BFF on cold sunny days. Don’t believe me? Then read Should you wear bouclé and tweed fabrics during spring? Christopher Kane, Jil Sanders, and, of course, Chanel are some of the fashion houses presenting bouclé coats, suits, dresses, and jackets for Spring/Summer 2022. Very Jackie O, very ’60s.
Chain Belts
The ’80s chains belts that had a revival in AW20 are back, embellishing the waits of fashion enthusiasts and Instagram influencers. So, get inspired by Lucy William’s outfit and add a statement chain belt to your dresses, a great idea to update your looks for cold sunny days. Similarly, you can wear the Chanel-style belts over trousers or skirts; for example, Diesel adorned micro skirts with chunky chain belts for AW22-23.
