everything is only a few weeks away and there’s no better time to revisit the one skill that sets a true style girl apart from the rest this transitional season: skilful layering. The tricky thing about the late summer weather is that it can get a little chilly, making it harder to wear just a light summer dress, but it’s still too hot for bulky loose garments. But there are smart ways to rock summer dresses before and during fall that keep it fun and chic while keeping you from exposing yourself to the tantrums of the climate.
Discover practical ways to wear your cute summer dresses in the fall like a pro…
#1. Rock with blazers
Blazers are a great option, especially for the early stages of the fall season. Before it gets super cold, layer your favorite nude blazer (or a brightly colored version if you’re in a playful mood) over a matching rosette-detailed dress for a subtle fashion statement.
#2. Combine with leather jackets
These wardrobe classics are the best transition pieces. From the cropped variants to the oversized variants: leather jackets keep you warm and stylishly up-to-date. If you’re in the mood for a little spice, opt for a zip-up jacket to amp up the biker vibe. You can wear them or wrap them around the shoulders; they are still nice.
#3. With sweater/sweater
It’s almost sweater season, so get them from the bottom of your closet for some exciting fall coordination. As the weather gears up for the colder moments, it’s still too hot to tackle a bulky sweater head-on. So consider lightweight options for an urban comeback.
#4. Style with a shake
For a relaxed take on fall summer dresses, wear a textured shacket over a plain one. This duo is a striking expression of relaxed chic with a dose of fun. For a more toned-down offering, finish with boots in neutral tones, such as brown, or opt for brightly colored shoes for an energetic look.
#5. Death with a coat
Season after season, the classic jacket remains undefeated. It continues to see changes in its traditional forms, but nevertheless retains its essence. Thanks to the minimalist and functional trends, this piece can be combined with any dress in your closet. Wear a purple sheepskin coat with a matching mini dress and pumps for a stylish take on monochromatic magic.
#6. Win it with boots
As we prepare to wear our summer dresses into fall, get out your trusty boots to make a statement. Whether knee-high, thigh-high or ankle boots, they will all serve their purpose without dropping the ball. They can withstand the cold and can brighten up any look; what more could you want this season?
#7. Finish it off with tights/leggings
There’s something ladylike about tight, black tights that make them suitable for fall. Put on your favorite brightly colored dress and combine it with black tights and platform shoes for a striking look. However, if you fancy something more sophisticated, opt for a black dress with cutouts, matching tights and pumps for an elegant fall/summer mashup.
#8. Layer with pants and a jacket
Wear your sexy slip dress over wide-leg trousers and complete the look with a cropped blazer to add an interesting take to the conversation. You can make the statement even louder with eye-catching accessories like oversized sunglasses and jewellery. Who said fall fashion had to be boring?
#9. Bomb with a bomber jacket
These jackets are essential for seasons to come, as they work well through the transition between summer and fall and well into the cold winter days. If you are rebellious, choose a colorful one that will make you stand out even in the middle of autumn.
