Temperatures of 20 degrees Celsius are usually considered warm. They are typical transitional mid-season temperatures for many countries. Mornings and evenings during this period are chilly, and days are often pleasant and mild.

A significant study of more than 1.6 million people showed that the temperature that makes us the most agreeable, emotionally stable, and open to new experiences is 22 degrees. And being so close to the commonly approved ideal climate, temperatures of 20 degrees will make you feel comfortable.
Ideal fabrics during this period will be cotton, satin, acrylic, denim, faux leather, suede, and lightweight polyester fleece.

Keep reading and get inspired by our 15 best outfit ideas for temperatures of 20 degrees Celsius.

1. Suede over-the-knee boots and shorts

The combination of shorts and boots is original and chic. Forget the idea that shorts are for summer and boots are for winter. Wear them together to achieve a sophisticated urban look.

There's just something special about the boots breaking up the long silhouette created by the shorts. Not to mention, it also puts the top of the boots on full display.

A cute variation is to wear over-the-knee boots with shorts. Complete the look with a sweater that falls slightly loose on your silhouette. This combination will give the illusion of your legs being longer and thinner.

6. Velour dress for finesse

Velour is soft and comfortable to wear. It is a pile knit fabric and is very durable. An important note is that due to the small production of velour fabric every year, the overall environmental impact of this fabric is minimal.

Add tights and ankle boots to a loose, boho-style midi dress for an easy mid-season outfit.

7. Ankle boots, jeans, and a cotton shirt

Ankle boots are great for mid-season weather and temperatures of 20 degrees. They look great with skinny or cropped jeans as they hit just above your ankle.

To add a personalized touch and texture to this outfit, match it with a brushed cotton shirt. Due to its exceptional insulation capabilities, brushed cotton is ideal for changeable weather conditions. And if you like patterned shirts, there is no better material than brushed cotton.

Dresses are a must in every woman’s wardrobe, and if you love mini dresses, don’t wait until the summer to put them on. Feel warm and sexy wearing a long sleeve mini dress with a blazer and tights. We find A-line shapes the most flattering, while the blazer will add some authority to the final look.

The outfit will look stunning with almost every type of shoe – ankle boots, heels, knee boots, loafers, pointed-toe shoes, etc.

 

9. Vests look cool

Vests are ideal for mid-season temperatures as they add a snug feeling to your outfit. There are multiple types of vests and many ways to style them, so you will find it easy to add them to your casual and elegant outfits.

We are sure a poncho is not the first clothing that pops up in your mind when we choose mid-season outfits. But we can assure you it looks great if you follow our tips and balance it well with the rest of the clothes.

Wear a poncho over a sweater for a polished look. If the situation permits casual styling, wear a tan poncho and light blue flare jeans. Make a style statement with a short-length poncho, black leggings, and knee boots. Finally, if you don’t like the poncho’s oversized shape and want to accentuate your waist, style it with a belt.

12. Long-sleeve jumpsuit for an easy outfit

Trench coats are versatile, practical, and lightweight to layer. They are best for transitional temperatures as well. Thanks to its timeless details and neutral color palette, your outfit can never go wrong with it.

14. Dress in layers

Atmospheric conditions play a high impact on temperatures of 20 degrees and on how we perceive them. Wind and humidity can make us feel cold, even though temperatures of 20 degrees Celsius are considered warm. On the other hand, if it’s clean and sunny, you might feel hot. For this reason, it is a good practice to dress in layers, so you can effortlessly adapt to these changing conditions.

15. Wear a headscarf

Conservative, rebellious, and culture-defining, the headscarf has become a favorite accessory of many women. And there is no doubt you get noticed when wearing a headscarf.

We love the Hollywood glamour look of a headscarf and sunglasses. Give it a try with a soft satin colorful scarf and your favorite sunglasses.
