I hope you guys had a great weekend and are enjoying (hopefully) cooler temps! My husband had this weekend off which was AMAZING. We haven’t had a two day weekend since July! If my memory is correct…which I think it is. It’s so awesome to have more than 1 day together! We hung out with friends Saturday, biked Sunday, and then went to Chuy’s for dinner. Chuy’s is quickly becoming our go to for an easy dinner – yummy and fast!
Ok back to the blog – today I wanted to talk about 3 transition pieces from summer to fall. Honestly, I’m excited to move away from shorts and t-shirts and into layers. It’s been cooler in Lexington and I love being able to wear jeans without sweating. I’m psyched for fall and everything that comes with it. But before you run out and buy new clothes for these cooler temps (I’m resisting the urge….) I wanted to share some items you can transition from summer to fall. See all my picks below!
white jeans
The “no white after Labor Day” rule is definitely outdated. Hasn’t anyone heard of winter whites?! Anywho, I think you can still rock those white jeans into the fall. I love the combo of white, simple top, with a chambray to throw on if it’s cold that I’m wearing here. I could add a blanket scarf if I wanted to go all the way full-on fall. I’m still paranoid about when I wear white jeans – i.e. not when I’m going to be eating anything super messy – but I’ve been loving them this summer and am happy to get more wear out of them. Of course I added my current favorite purse (from my fall accessories post from last week) – I get so many compliments on it and people can’t believe it’s from Old Navy. Also, If you want to see more ideas about wearing white jeans, see this post!
tank tops
Fall is all about layering, and tank tops are a super easy base! You can take any summer tank top and make it fall “appropriate” by adding a sweater or jacket. I personally love this Topshop tank and think it would be appropriate for any season! Plus tank tops are a great way to wear a sweater without overheating in these medium temps.
dresses
I love wearing dresses and can’t wait to add some tights or leggings! Dresses are so easy to throw on and can go all year with the right layers. I wear this everyday dress all year and it’s super comfy with tights. I usually wear opaque tights in fall and winter and these are my favorites from DKNY. I can take virtually all of my summer dresses – minus a few of the longer ones – add a sweater or jacket and be good to go.
Are there any more items you think can be transitioned from summer to fall? Obviously you can wear your jeans and jean jackets – those are year round staples for me. Let me know in the comments if there’s anything else you’re going to keep wearing!
