There’s a secret to polished, transitional style for him and her, and we want to share it with you. With all the options at Tanger Outlets, it’s easy to put together the perfect season-spanning capsule of versatile, outfit-making pieces at prices you simply can’t pass up.
As summer begins, you’ll find all the trends to define your warm-weather wardrobe with our unmatched selection from your favorite brands. Here are a few of our favorite picks, with tips for weaving them into the spring looks you’re already loving.
The Top
This season, garden-party prep gets a modern twist.
This cotton poplin tank from our friends at Brooks Brothers Factory Store is ideal for pairing with a cardigan or linen blazer you can slip off as temperatures rise. The floral detailing and scalloped edges make this goes-with-everything silhouette a fabulous find.
For him, it’s all about the button down. Pair this piece from Banana Republic Factory with his favorite pair of navy shorts for a monochromatic look he’ll love. Polish off the look with a fresh pair of white sneakers or boat shoes for that garden-party feel.
The Dress Up
Did someone say date night?
What we look for in a transitional dress: a shape that layers easily with a cropped sweater or denim jacket, and a hemline that works just as well with ankle boots as with strappy sandals. This tiered midi style from Banana Republic Factory fits the bill beautifully for less than you’d expect. On balmy days that call for bare shoulders, finish the look with a chunky belt.
Bring in summer colors to his wardrobe. When he needs to get dressed up, these pops of pastels from Vineyard Vines will pair perfectly with khaki pants, shorts, or even the season’s top trend for men — linen.
The Athletic Set
Step out in bright colors this season — starting with your workout wear.
This set from Old Navy Outlet does it all. In springtime, add the jacket to this set for an extra layer. But for summer: style the tank and shorts alone and tie the jacket around your waist. Perfect for the boardwalk, your yoga class or running errands.
Men — summer workout style is all about cuffed sleeves and colorful shorts this year. Take this athletic set from Old Navy Outlet to a run on the beach, a trip to the coffeeshop or into the gym.
The Shoes
The sweet spot between boots and sandals is a fresh pair of sneakers.
For the most outfitting opportunities, look for neutral, wear-everywhere styles with textural details like canvas fabric. These classic white sneakers from Sperry do the trick with denim cuffed at the ankles or, for a playful juxtaposition, a pretty midi skirt. They’re sure to be your seasonal staple.
The classic white sneaker is a must-have for men in any season, but especially as we transition from spring to summer. This pair from Under Armour can be worn with his favorite shorts or with sweats for those cool summer mornings.
The Finishing Touch
If there’s just one piece you need to transform your look from spring to summer, it’s an accesorry.
Every women needs a summer handbag — more precisely, a woven straw satchel from Kate Spade New York. This delightful choice exudes picnic-time charm that will brighten your day the moment you drape it over your shoulder. Carry it to elevate wide-leg pants and a tee, or bring it along for brunch in your best floral sundress.
Top off his look with a classic, stylish watch. This Tommy Hilfiger watch is perfect for the summertime. It can be worn with any color in his wardrobe and on any occasion. Dress it up with button downs and slacks, or keep it casual with a tee and shorts. No matter what, this will be a piece that stands the test of time.
Make this spring-to-summer season your most stylish yet with these must-have pieces. The best news is you can find them online with our Virtual Shoppers or in person at your preferred Tanger Outlets location. The choice is yours, so what are you waiting for? Add these transitional trends to your wardrobe.
