Spring is well underway, but the weather has been pretty unpredictable from coast to coast, with thunderstorms in New York City and unusually mild temps in typically sunny Los Angeles. Trendsetters are putting their best foot forward amidst the overcast, and Priyanka Chopra's khaki dress was a smart choice for a gloomy day in L.A. The Quantico star was spotted out and about on Tues., looking chic and refined in a longline coat layered atop the utilitarian frock that fell mid-way down the calf.

It's been a pretty busy week for the 36-year-old, thanks to an exclusive interview with The Times, an InStyle cover story, and an appearance alongside husband Nick Jonas for the premiere of the Jonas Brothers' documentary, Chasing Happiness. On the red carpet, Chopra donned a chain-adorned satin dress featuring a daring high slit, a far cry from the neutral midi dress she wore the next day in Hollywood.

Paired with black pumps and the classic black overcoat, the look was lended a futuristic twist thanks to tiny cat-eye sunglasses and a trusty pair of AirPods. Aside from the new-age eyewear and cutting-edge technology, Chopra's button-down dress was a timeless pick that transcends fleeting, of-the-moment trends.

Though the newlywed isn't above daring trends like lime green, Chopra tends to maintain a classic femininity throughout her street style aesthetic. And as proven by the understated look perfect for transitional weather, a khaki dress is one style investment that will endure for the long haul. Moveable and refined enough for the office, but sophisticated enough for post-work drinks, the minimalistic staple is a no-fail piece that you'll reach for time and time again.
