From Summer to Fall: Transitioning Your Wardrobe for Events
Just as you finish transitioning your spring wardrobe to summer, fall comes around, and you have to start all over again. However, the cooler months are something to be excited about! Fall calls for wearing rich colors, enjoying cozier fabrics, and showing off your opulent style, giving you hardly any reason to complain about the change of seasons.
With that being said, this fashion transition can still be quite a challenge. It gets even more difficult when you have to attend events throughout the autumn season. But thanks to tried-and-tested fashion rules, you can still accomplish this feat.
To help you through this style journey, here’s how to transition your event wardrobe from summer to fall.
Turn your summer dress into a fall statement
Whether you have been wearing a consistent style of clothes or change it up every year, it can be tricky to switch from one season’s wardrobe to the next. But when it comes to summer dresses, you don’t have to move mountains for this transition. If you’ve been following the latest trends in mini dresses, you can easily change your summer dress into a fall outfit with the use of a belt, tights, and knee-high boots to be ready for autumn season events.
Layer your lighter tops with heavier jackets
Layering your outfits helps you transition your wardrobe from warmer to colder weather easily. If you’re going to an event where it’s comfortable to wear tailored slacks with a sharp jacket, you can pair them with lighter tops underneath. Pair this fit with women’s flats, and you’ve got yourself an outfit fit for any event.
Trade Your Mini Skirts for Midi Skirts
From shirts to blouses and everything in between, skirts can elevate the simplest of outfits with a fashionable touch. Midi skirts are a great choice for events in the fall season. Swap your summer mini skirt for a midi skirt that's perfect for fall. For formal events, you can also enhance your look with accessories such as a waist chain.
Invest in Cardigans For Effortless Flair
Similar to corsets making a return to fashion for spring and summer, cardigans have also come back with a splash. Some may even argue that they never left the mainstream-style book. Regardless of your personal verdict on cardigans, you cannot deny that they make for a chic fall ensemble. While cardigans typically go best with jeans, you can also pair them with tailored pants and Mary Jane shoes. For an added touch, personalize your cardigan with a custom brooch.
Find Signature Outerwear to Complete Your Fall Look
The term “quiet luxury” has become quite popular in recent months. Quiet luxury may only be affordable to the super-rich, but the rest of us can still invest in quality pieces that avoid harsh brand logos. If you can, try finding such outerwear vintage pieces in thrift stores or online sellers. Check out this article on what to wear with a vest, shirt, or blouse, as this allows you to easily turn a summer outfit into fall event fashion with the help of a coat or jacket.
Style with accessories that keep you warm
In many cases, turning your summer event clothes into fall outfits is just a matter of accessorizing for the season. Whether you want to knit a DIY scarf or plan to put on a wool beanie, wearing these accessories can help you transform the aesthetic of your outfit. As the weather turns colder, you can also try on other options, such as cashmere gloves, to add a more autumnal touch to your outfits. This makes sure that you can easily switch your clothes between seasons while the weather still allows you to do so.
Through these suggestions, you can make the most of your summer wardrobe for the first few weeks of fall. Whether you attend your events during the day or in the evening, you can be confident and stand out on every occasion.
