A scarf is THE high-impact piece to add to your wardrobe. It’s a third piece that can pull your look together. If you’re trying to buy less but still want a polished look, try a scarf. And if you want to upgrade your outerwear this year or flirt with something trendy like a cheetah print without going all-in, try a scarf.

The best easy swap you can make to feel hotter: Replace your house hoodie with a version that is just as cozy in a color you feel amazing in. Our color analysts have rounded up the cutest throw-on third pieces in your color season to try.

My stylist friend Paul got me into third pieces. 

We’re talking cardigans, blazers, moto jackets, vests, shackets, and all their adorable friends.
