So if you are like me, I bet you can’t believe it’s basically fall in retail with a little sneak peak of Christmas. (Yes that says Christmas….even Hobby Lobby has Christmas decor out now!) With 90-100 degree temps in San Antonio, I can’t quite wrap my head around shopping for fall items but it seems like those are my only options given everything summer related seems to be on clearance with a lack of sizes. The past 3 years in Kentucky instilled in me a love for fall that I have never had or experienced living in Texas. Fall fashion quickly became my favorite and I am currently figuring out how to make my current summer pieces a little fall related so that I can keep up with the trends.
Here are 5 items to consider when adding some fall flair to your summer wardrobe…
Layering Pieces are perfect because they allow for flexibility. In my opinion, the best layering pieces for fall are basic tees and tanks along with lightweight cardigans and jackets. For example, you could throw on a basic white tee with denim cutoffs, layer a cardigan over it, add some booties and suede hat…and there you go, an easy fall outfit.
Booties are always a fashion staple no matter what season we are in. Booties look great with denim cutoffs and skinny jeans but you can easily pair them with a summer dress and instantly transition your look to fall. My current obsession is a bootie with a peep toe. I find these to be a sexier and more sophisticated take on the normal bootie style.
Denim Shorts aren’t just for the summer months. In fact, most of you reading probably already own a pair! They look great with sandals, flats, and booties. My favorite way to transition denim shorts for fall is to style them with a sweater, booties, and a suede hat.
Dresses are another fashion staple that can be worn anytime of the year. During the summer months they are light and breezy while being paired with sandals. You can swap out those sandals for booties or flats and a utility jacket for an instant fall ensemble. I have a slight obsession with shirt dresses and the fact that the one above is chambray makes it even better. This dress would be perfect with a floppy hat and a pair of ghillie flats like these.
Accessories can instantly elevate any outfit. Floppy hats are always chic and can be added to almost any outfit. A leopard clutch or a scarf can be used in the summer and fall. These can easily add a pop of color/print to any outfit.
