While changing the seasons can be exciting and a good opportunity to buy more clothing to your collection, the days in between can make getting ready even more difficult.

With days that alternate between sunny, windy, chilly, and dismal, there’s plenty of excitement for all four seasons. But what should one wear? Let Jennifer Lawrence’s most recent bright ensemble serve as your inspiration.

While out and about in New York, the actress skillfully illustrated the power of color in layer mixing, even though she usually stays true to a consistent rotation of black, white, beige, and navy for her everyday appearances.

Lawrence looked chic in pictures that can be viewed here. She wore a light trench coat, straight-leg jeans, a button-up cardigan, casual sneakers, and a pop-of-color handbag. The actress unintentionally gave us a stylish wardrobe formula for the perplexing weather we’re having with this understated style.

The seamless color blending of the Don’t Look Up star’s ensemble, which was composed mostly of pieces most of us would find in our wardrobes, gave us new ideas for trans-seasonal clothing. The secret? experimenting with different tones of the same color (she chose yellow for Lawrence) and making sure every color has a similar undertone, whether warm or chilly.
