Ask a stylist! Spring "mix and match" on- and off-duty outfits

Stylist Mitsuko Okui has selected 10 items from IEDIT's new spring collection. She'll be demonstrating how to mix and match these pieces for April and May!
This time, we'll be showcasing on- and off-duty outfits for April.

April is a month where temperatures can fluctuate wildly, even from day to day. "It's warm during the day, but then it gets cold at night..." "It was warm yesterday, but today it's quite chilly..." Hopefully, this will help you with your outfit choices!

Here's the wardrobe that Ms. Okui chose for this occasion!

Outer
I selected a navy blazer that can be worn both on and off duty, and a beige long coat that's perfect for cooler days.

Tops
The collection includes four items in total: two types of cardigans that can be worn as tops or as outerwear, and two blouses in spring-like white and orange.

Coordinated outfit set - dress
I've selected a versatile black set-up that can be worn for ceremonies and other occasions, and a dress with a polka dot pattern, sheer fabric, and monochrome design that can be worn casually or elegantly.

Bottoms
A pair of beige chino pants paired with a yellow skirt as an accent color – a total of two items.

Using a total of 10 items, we'll introduce 10 on- and off-duty outfits for April, along with comments from a stylist!

Make a great impression! April outfit ideas for on-duty wear.

This outfit features a white blouse and a beige coat, keeping the color tones subdued to highlight the yellow of the skirt. Matching accessories to beige would also work well, or you could add a metallic bag to enjoy the contrast in textures.

A sweet and spicy mixed outfit that's perfect for the office.

Pair a soft, sheer, sweet dress with a navy blazer jacket for a sharp, sophisticated look. Since the color palette is muted, adding a pop of color with accessories is recommended.
