Transitional Style || 5 Ways To Style Summer Favorites Into The Fall

Our house has been in a state of disarray this week due to closet renovations, and yesterday afternoon they were completed so we started putting everything back into place. Being a person who likes order and organization, this was a much needed glow up for our closets which basically had zero organizational structure to them (the before situation was a complete disaster… I don’t know why we put it off for so long). And with the transitioning of seasons happening over the next month or so, it was a good way to purge pieces that no longer fit into my wardrobe and see if there are any gaps for the upcoming season…

Something else it allowed me to do was look at some pieces and figure out how to make them work in the fall season. So below I put together five summer to fall transitional outfits, using a key piece for each of them. I hope it helps provide a bit of inspo for some items you might have in your closet that are the same or similar!

And with that, I hope everyone has a great weekend ahead. It’s hard to believe that we made it through the first week of school… we’ll be having a glass of something bubbly on Friday night and enjoying a few days of not rushing in the morning. Hope you can do the same!

I love transitioning a summer dress into fall by simply swapping out sandals for sneakers, and bare shoulders for a chunky cardigan. It’s an easy, and casual, way to make your favorite dress work with cooler temps.

SUMMER: Dress, Sunglasses. Sandals (also these), Bag, Hat
FALL: Sneakers, Cardigan (this one is good too, under $60), Bag (ITSYBITSY20 for 20% off)

STRIPED TOP

A lightweight striped top in the summer works great as an easy layer for a cool night with shorts… but also works with high waisted denim in fall weather. Layer over in with a coat when temps get really chilly, or wear it solo if your climate is a bit warmer in fall…

LINEN SWEATER

I bought this linen sweater at the beginning of summer and it’s been such a great option for cool summer days (which are sort of a thing of the past right now)… I wore it multiple times on our trip to the central coast in July. Easily transition it with flared jeans and sneakers for fall…

BLACK BLAZER

There is nothing chicer than a black blazer… and an easy way to dress up denim shorts in the summer is by tossing one on… easily transition it to fall by swapping out cut-offs for some flared jeans… Our h

TROUSER PANTS

I shared these trouser pants in Monday’s post, but they’re so comfortable and a great denim alternative. You can easily wear them now with a fitted, ribbed, tank and then transition them into the fall months with a cozy half zip sweater and sneakers.
