How to Style Vintage for the Unpredictable British Spring
Let’s be honest—February and March in the UK are a bit of a tease. One moment you get a glorious glimpse of crisp sunshine, and the next, you’re caught in a sudden downpour. It’s that tricky transitional period where you’re desperate to ditch the heavy winter coat but not quite ready to brave the chill in just a sun dress.
At My Wild Honey, we believe you shouldn’t have to pack away your favourite boho pieces just because the weather can’t make up its mind. In fact, bohemian style is perfect for layering.
Mastering the Art of Transitional Dressing
Here is how to master the art of transitional dressing while staying true to your unique, free-spirited style.
1. The Chunky Knit Layer
The easiest way to wear your summer maxi dresses in late winter? Throw a chunky, oversized knit over the top. It adds a cosy, textured contrast to the flowy elegance of your outfit.
Why This Look Works
It balances warmth with movement. The heavy wool grounds the lightness of the chiffon or cotton below.

This dress is perfect for this look due to its volume and texture.
2. Boots are Your Best Friend
Don't reach for the sandals just yet. A pair of worn-in leather ankle boots or knee-highs adds a rugged, grounded edge to feminine florals.
Style Tip: The Glastonbury Vibe
It’s a classic Glastonbury-inspired look that works just as well for a coffee run in Manchester or a weekend stroll in the Cotswolds.
Note: Always spray protect your suede boots before heading out in February!
3. The Denim Jacket Revival
A vintage wash denim jacket is the ultimate transitional staple. It’s light enough to carry when the sun breaks through but sturdy enough to keep the wind at bay.
Pairing Ideas
Our A-Line Halter Neck Dresses look stunning when paired with a cropped denim jacket. The structure of the denim highlights the delicate tie-neck details without hiding them completely.
