We’ve picked out 5 lighter layers to reach for in transitional weather. Keep scrolling to check out the styles you need right now.
1. Plus Size Check Shirts
For those days you don’t quite need a jacket but need some sort of extra coverage, check shirts are your go-to. Super versatile, there’s so many ways to style a classic check shirt.
Keep things relaxed and throw it on buttoned up with one shoulder off, or wear it unbuttoned with a basic tee underneath for ultimate cool vibes.
We’ve kept it classic with a mono check to see you through every season in style.
Made from a soft brushed cotton fabric, it features a classic collar and button through fastening with long cuffed sleeves. The relaxed boyfriend fit makes it super laid-back and casual over any denim.
