Add a little spring to your winter wardrobe with this Gap camisole

Monday, February 18th, 2008 | tops

This is the hardest part of winter, I think — it’s still cold, but if you’re like me, you’re tired of bundling up in fleece and wool and pulling on your gigantic boots; instead, you’re starting to long for bright summery colors and light fabrics.

Right?

One way to beat the winter doldrums is by layering summery pieces under winter pieces. This won’t work for every summer piece — a lightweight sundress, for example, isn’t appropriate with your Uggs, no matter what you see on celebrities. But you CAN wear a pretty camisole under a wool or cashmere sweater, for a little pop of spring on a snowy day.

I love this cami from the Gap; it has a nice long length, which makes it perfect for layering under a crew or V neck sweater. It also has a nice clean neckline, which will be lovely under a cardigan or scoop-neck tee. When the weather warms up, wear it over a coordinating tank, either on it’s own or under a slim jacket. And the silk/cotton blend makes it a nice alternative to the basic ribbed tank or cotton tee.

Tiny-floral slip tank, Gap, $44.50. Available in three colors, in sizes XS to XXL.
