Transitioning from Summer to Fall

September 29, 2017 Lifestyle, Style


It’s officially our favorite time of the year, fall! We’re so ready to grab our sweaters, vests, and jackets, but, sadly, if you live in the south like we do, it’s not cold enough for all those layers quite yet! Until cooler weather comes, get the most out of your favorite summer basics! Transitioning your warm weather favs into wearable fall fashion is easy with a few simple styling tricks!

Every girl should have a skirt that can be dressed up or down for any occasion! With the right styling, a simple summer skirt can transition effortlessly into fall. For an everyday look that’s perfect for casual date night or Saturday football, start with a basic tee tucked in and finish with a white sneaker or ankle bootie! Dressing it up is simple too, just trade your sneakers for a pair of wedges or basic pumps and add your favorite statement accessories!

Shorts are traditionally a “summer wardrobe only” item but, this year, we’re here to change that! Shorts and lazy fall Saturday’s are a match made in heaven! Pair basic, dark-hued shorts with a long sleeve tee, baseball hat, and white Converse for a quick and adorable early fall ensemble. Don’t forget to pack a light jacket too!

A good rain jacket is a year-round must have! Warm summer showers often carry into chilly fall storms, so don’t pack up that rain jacket just yet! Instead of styling your jacket with shorts and tall boots, try pairing it with a long sleeve top, leggings, and ankle rain boots! A few simple style swaps will keep you dry and drop dead gorgeous this fall!


A basic dress is a great base for any fall outfit! It may not be time to bundle up in outerwear yet, but why not perfect your layering skills while you wait? Create an easy-going outfit by layering a flannel or long sleeve tee over a dress.  If the weather suddenly changes and you find yourself a little warm, tie it around your waist instead! Finish off this look with sneakers, riding boots, or booties, and you’re ready to go!

When it comes to transitioning your wardrobe this fall, remember to keep it simple! Changing up your shoes, adding a layer, or finishing your look with the right accessories can effortlessly transition your summer favorites into the next season!
