Happy Saturday Beauties!
Fall is fast approaching (in just a couple of weeks, OMG!!!) and I wanted to offer a little transitional outfit inspiration. I know some of us aren’t quite ready to pack away our summer clothes and sandals just yet, but we are ready to break out those new items we purchased for fall. Here is how we can create that juxtaposition with paring our summer and fall wardrobe together to make a great outfit for those warm fall days.
- Layer, Layer, Layer!!!
One of the best ways to transition from summer to fall is to layer you tank tops and tees with a denim jacket, blazer, or cardigan (3 pieces and accessories make an outfit complete). Layering can really pull an outfit together in a really chic way. Also, adding some warmth up top while still allowing you to wear your chunky sandals.

2. Keep The Color Flowing!!!
I know, I know, Pumpkin Spice over everything… Lol. But as we talked about in my last post Fall 2023 Beautiful Color Trends That Will Make You Stand Out – The Beauty- Lush, Vibrant Colors and Textures are trending this season and when you add some metallic color, that’s next level. Chef’s Kiss! I styled the metallic skirt in a more wearable way with sneakers, a structure t-shirt, and denim jacket, because I feel women will purchase a piece like this and save it for a special occasion. Your clothes deserve to be worn ladies! The silver metallic bag completed the look. If you wanted to take the outfit from day to date night add a cute pump. I have been in love with these pumps since I purchased them for my birthday, and they are currently on sale!!

3. BREAK OUT THE JEANS
An easy way to start incorporating denim back into your wardrobe is to start with cropped or distressed styles (or both). Fall Temperatures will start to dip especially in the early to mid-mornings and denim will provide you with a little warmth but as the temp began to rise throughout the day the cutouts will provide a little ventilation.
I paired some black denim jeans, cropped top, white button down, chunky sandals in this transitioning fall outfit.

4. Mules
Mules the perfect shoe selection when transitioning to from summer to fall. They come in all shapes and sizes from heeled, chucky, and flat. They are perfect for those low temperature days as well. They pair well with jeans, skirt, trousers, and shorts.
I styled mules with a medium washed jean, white tee, and a red purse.

5. Maxi Skirts
Just because summer is ending doesn’t mean you have to put away your Maxi skirt. Elevate them instead. Fall is the time to start adding textures. One of the trends that is coming back this fall is leather. Maxi skirts has so much versatility. It can be paired with a mule, combat boots, tall boots, or sneaker. You can never go wrong.
I put together a textured maxi skirt with a cropped top, denim jacket, and a white mule. But this fit can be paired with any of the shoes I mentioned above.

6. Mini Skirts
Just because the weather is changing doesn’t mean you have to count your miniskirts out. Mini skirts are not created equal. They are a major player in your wardrobe no matter the weather. During the fall/winter season you have to dress them up a bit with tights and tall boots. However, when transitioning from summer to fall you can still bare your legs but cover your toes with a nice closed in shoe and top it off with a great jacket.
