4 Ways To Extend Your Summer Wardrobe

It’s finally October, which means that the temps are starting to cool off (thank God! - Anyone else here prefer the cooler fall temps over the summer heat?) and everyone is pulling out their chunky sweaters and fall boots! However, what if you want to wear your favorite summer pieces just a bit longer? Well, you’re in luck! Today we are going to talk about four ways to extend your summer wardrobe into the cooler months while also adding a more dynamic look to your session outfits! 

4 Ways To Extend Your Summer Wardrobe

01. Knee High Boots

If you still want to rock your fall toned mini skirt or summer dress into the autumn season, the answer is Knee high boots! Knee high boots cover up more of your leg so you won’t look cold wearing a shorter skirt or dress! 

 If you aren’t ready to bust out your knee high boots, then opt for ankle booties or any other close toed shoes to warm up the look and extend these summer wardrobe pieces.

02. Tights

Another great option for extending these warm weather pieces is by wearing tights under skirts or even shorts! When choosing tights, pick solid black for a classic look, or try out different tones for a more fun and personality driven style!  An Added Bonus: tights will also keep you nice and warm on a cool fall day!

03. Denim Jacket, Cardigan, or Chunky Sweater 

Wearing a summer tank top or mini dress in early fall is not a problem! Add a denim jacket or cardigan over your tank or dress and you’ll instantly get a warmer aesthetic. You can also throw on a chunky sweater (my favorite!) on top of your dress for a great fall style! This layered look is a great way to add texture and elevate your wardrobe regardless of the season!

Take Note: Many summer outfits feature a brighter, more vibrant color palette, as a result you want to make sure the denim jacket or the color of your cardigan/sweater complements the tones of your summer piece for a cohesive look.

04. Fall Accessories

Using Fall accessories like boot socks, scarves, and felt/wool headwear is probably my favorite way to extend those summer pieces a little longer! The right fall accessory will carry your outfit into the season with style! Another wonderful accessory option is a wide brimmed hat, which is very in this season! Hats in general are a great way to accessorize your wardrobe all year round! This hat style is perfect for complementing a fall look!
