Autumnize Your Summer Staples

September and early October are such awkward months. It's still technically summer until Sept. 22 but our minds are on fall and its fresh new trends. Do we give up our sun dresses and denim cut offs? We can't dive into warm layers and knits because it's still too hot. See what I mean by awkward? I've thought up of ways we can keep wearing our favorite summer staples well into autumn. By adding layers and paring with new colors we'll have entirely new outfits!

OUTFIT IDEAS


Skirt Top Jacket Heels Necklace Bracelet
 The maxi skirt is a wonderful piece to add to your fall wardrobe. It gives your legs warmth and lets in the occasional breeze for those warm days. Summer's popular brights won't be going away soon. Wear your favorite neon maxi skirt with camel and cobalt for a more toned down autumn look.


Dress Turtleneck Tights Boots Cross Body
 The sundress is my favorite summer staple. To extend the length of wear I simply add black or opaque tights and a cute pair of ankle booties. For added layers, don either a cardigan or a simple black turtleneck sweater under or over the dress.


Shorts Sweater Jacket Sneakers Satchel Watch
 The timeless denim cutoffs are so hard to say bye to. For those not ready to depart try adding a long sleeve top or sweater and cute sneaks. When the chilly days arrive you can also don tights underneath the shorts and add a jacket over the long sleeve top.


How do you "autumnize" your summer staples?

Which outfit is your favorite?

I love stretching my summer outfits to autumn by throwing a cashmere sweater over the top and tucking the pants into boots. Textured tights can make dresses and skirts more fall-appropriate too!

I am refusing to say goodbye to my denim shorts just because the rain's showed up... so instead I've gone shopping for beautifully thick tights and a new pair of pixie ankle boots =) Perfect!
