Transitioning your summer wardrobe into fall is no easy task. Warm-weather tanks and chic dresses are no match for the chill of fall breezes, meaning it’s time to break out the jackets and jeans. But what if you aren’t ready to give up your favorite summer pieces? Well there’s good news for you– This season, layering is in! Pairing your summer looks with warmer, autumn essentials is easy if you simply remember a few easy tips.

1. Contrast is cool. Mix and match your fitted pieces with looser styles to create interest in your ensemble. If you pair a tight dress with a fitted coat, you’ll look uptight and outdated. Match an easy fitting cardigan with your favorite mini to create balance.
2. Colors should be complimentary. Don’t try to pair pastels with bold, winter shades. Be tasteful, and keep your combos in complimentary color pallets. If you want to experiment with color, try incorporating a single element that stands out.
3. Update your accessories. It’s amazing when a great necklace or a chic scarf can do for your look. Tastefully incorporating accessories can take a summery style to fall in one easy step!

Remember these three tips, and you’re sure to look fabulous in this transition time. Enjoy pairing your summer clothes with warmer pieces to make a functional outfit look fabulous!
