5 Ways to Transition Your Summer Wardrobe Into Fall

Even if you’re not ready to bundle up in sweaters yet, the weather is quickly turning too cold for tank tops, so you’re going to have to figure out some way to stay warm. Luckily, just a few smart accessories and styling tips can help you keep your summer wardrobe in heavy rotation during the seasonal transition this fall. Try these five ways to transition your summer wardrobe into fall.

Sweater Shrug: The sweater shrug is this year’s trendiest way to add warmth to your summer clothes. This closure-free sweater comes in many forms — short, long, three-quarter-length sleeves, chunky, lightweight — and this season you can easily find one in every color of the rainbow. They look equally amazing with a pair of jeans and a slinky summery top as they do with a summer dress.

Scarf: Scarves are a trend that is seemingly going to stick around. Long scarves, patterned scarves, silk scarves and more can be the perfect accessory for making your style look and feel warmer for fall. But this year’s top scarf incarnation is the chunky infinity scarf — a chunky knit scarf that has its ends sewn together to make it one big infinite loop.

Hidden Layers: While a sweater shrug or scarf is a great way to add warmth and style to your outfit, you can also add layers underneath that no one will ever know about. Slip a Cuddl Duds tank under your summer dress so you won’t freeze when you go for happy hour drinks after work. Or add Cuddl Duds leggings under your lightweight summer pants to ensure you’ll stay warm on a Saturday afternoon apple-picking trip.

Dark Accessories: If you were wearing white and light brown belts and shoes a few weeks ago, now you should trade in those accessories for darker ones in rich browns, deep purple, grays and black. Even on a warm fall day, a dark accessory will make your outfit look seasonally appropriate.

Boots: It’s no secret that trading in your opened toed shoes and sandals for a pair of boots will keep your feet warm as cooler temps arrive, but they’ll also turn any summer look into a fall look. A summer dress with knee-high boots suddenly doesn’t look so summery anymore.
