Transition your style: Summer to Fall

The transition from summer vacation to fall semester has always been synonymous with the changing of the seasons. With the first day of classes a mere few weeks away, the time for back-to-school shopping has arrived. But with so many new trends and popular items crowding the shelves of stores nationwide, it becomes difficult to stay in your budget especially after splurging on your summer wardrobe. And what are you going to do with all those new summer clothes you just bought two weeks ago? You surely can't afford to just put them away and buy a whole fall wardrobe, especially on a student's allowance. Don't start stressing yet though because Scarlet Style as always is here to provide you with a practical(and chic!) solution.

Here are some pictures and tips on how you can incorporate your summer fashion into your autumn style.

Summer dresses- Light, airy dresses are a must for summer, but they can also be worn in the colder temperatures with cute wintry accessories. In fact, wearing your bright, bold summer dresses in the autumn makes you look fresh in a crowd of neutral, dark colors.


Shorts
- Shorts have been deemed as a must-have item to have in one's summer closet. However, in the past few years, fashionistas worldwide have been experimenting by using them for their fall/winter wardrobe. And the result? A chic and sophisticated look with a hint of sexual appeal.
Skirts- Because of the popular preppy school girl uniform, skirts have become an all-year round staple. If the Gossip Girl look really isn't your style, you can still wear your skirts with dark hued tights, and incorporate your own style to the outfit.
Tank tops- Cami's and tank tops are absolutely an essential necessity for the fall. Because fall is all about layering, you can use your printed and solid tanks to act as the first layer, and begin adding wintry touches to it one layer at a time.

General Rules:
  • If the summer piece you are incorporating into your autumn style is full of bright and vivid colors, make sure to balance it out with muted neutrals and dark shades.
  • Don't be afraid to be bold and mix and match different textures and patterns!
  • Have fun with your clothes!
