Style Report: Mixing Summer With Fall
Posted by alexandra / Wednesday, July 27th, 2011
Hello, shoppers! I know it’s hard to believe with record-breaking temps over 100 degrees last weekend and humidity at its worst, but fall is actually right around the corner. And while we’re far from digging out the boots and jackets that are staples during the fall season, now is the perfect time to start thinking about some great summer to fall transition pieces. Saying goodbye to summer doesn’t have to mean saying goodbye to all of your favorite summer styles!
Check out some great ways to turn summer looks into fall ones:
This fall, get ready to see tons of military-esque looks. Soften the style by pairing it with one of your feminine lace blouses.
Lucky Brand Unit Military Jacket, $99
If you thought bright colors were just for summer, think again. Transition your brightly colored skirts by incorporating fall colors, like oranges and reds.
Kate Spade 'Meredith' Skirt, $192
So it’s warm during the day and chilly at night. Add a pretty scarf to any outfit to give it some extra flare… not to mention extra warmth.
Lilly Pulitzer 'Shorely Blue Pirates Bootyniere' Scarf, $118
It’s official: leggings are here to stay. And they just happen to be a great layering piece under your favorite summer dress or skirt. Pair them with some heels to keep the look classy!
Nordstrom Capri Leggings, $18
Ankle boots are the perfect way to start letting go of summer sandals. They’re easy to wear with skirts, sundresses, leggings… you name it.
