Transition Time

In this post, I'm going to show you how to wear your summer pieces when the weather gets colder. This is always a good skill to have, as the transition from summer to autumn can be a difficult one (hence why the September issue of magazines is a big deal). It can very simple to get use out of your colorful summer garb even when it isn't warm out, but sometimes you just need a little help.

You have: a colorful summer dress.

IRO biker jacket, American Eagle dress, Falke tights, Blowfish heeled booties, H&M key necklace, Chan Luu wrap bracelet.

Add edginess to a feminine dress with a biker jacket and lace-up boots. You can never go wrong with neutrals; the rest of the outfit is comprised of neutrals so the focus is on the dress.

You have: a bright tank top.

Topshop blazer, shorts, and pumps; Madewell tank top, Falke tights, Warehouse belt, Elizabeth and James ring.

Throw a blazer on top of a summer tank top for warmth. Instead of wearing jeans or trousers, try black shorts for an unexpected touch (these shorts are velvet). Tights are a must: black ones enable you to wear a colorful pair of shoes as well. Wear rings instead of necklaces, which would draw the eyes away from the beautiful color of the top. A belt is optional.

You have: a floral skirt.

Tibi sweater, H&M skirt, Topshop boots, Modcloth tights, Forever 21 necklace, Dannijo ring.

Wearing a sweater on top of a printed skirt creates a cozy but chic combination. Choose one color from the pattern of the skirt to inspire your choice of legwear. Boots are a good choice for footwear. A necklace is mandatory, but any kind will do. Try an interesting ring that goes with your tights or skirt.

Hopefully this post will help you make the transition into fall!

A word of advice: take advantage of the summer sales. Summer staples can be equally versatile in colder weather as they are in warmer weather. Also, if you love color like I do, summer sales are great places to stock up on bright pieces, since it can be hard to find colorful garments when the weather becomes colder.

Before I end this post, I wanted to apologize for not posting for a while. I've been very busy! I am also planning to announce the winner of my giveaway soon, so look forward to that!
