How to Transition Your Summer Dresses to Fall
Outfit Details:
Dress: Red Dress Boutique c/o | Cardi: Target (old – similar here)| Shoes: Tory Burch (old – similar here)| Handbag: Hammitt c/o
Summer is still in full swing in California and I’m dreaming of cool, crisp Fall days instead of 115 degree weather. Luckily, Fall is right around the corner and it’s starting to cool down in many parts of the country. This is an interesting time of the year because it’s in between seasons: mornings and evenings are getting cooler, but it’s still warm during the day calling for an easy transitional look. While I’m not quite ready to bring out the boots and scarves or retire my summer dresses, creating a transitional look is a breeze with layering.
I thought that this peach dress from Red Dress Boutique was absolutely adorable and perfect for Transitioning Your Summer Dresses to Fall! It’s feminine and flirty with the most gorgeous detailing and the price is amazing (as with all RBD finds!). The color is perfect for nearly all seasons and would be a lovely piece to have going from Summer to Fall. Since it’s still warm here, I styled it with a crochet duster kimono for a look that is romantic yet functional. The kimono gives the right amount of coverage but is still breathable. I opted for a metallic gladiator sandal and light grey studded clutch to contrast the overtly feminine pieces. When it gets cooler, it will be perfect with a chunky knit cardi and ankle boots.
Other ideas for styling for Transitioning Your Summer Dresses to Fall:
1.) To add a bit of edginess, style it with a moto jacket and flat embellished ankle boot.
2.) Add a sheer cardi and over-the-knee boots for a romantic look.
3.) Pair it with beautiful fall colors such as navy, burgundy and plum.

Totally on the same page this week! I love that in early Fall I can wear so many of my summer pieces by simply adding a light jacket or a bootie!

A sheer cardi is the perfect thing to transition in the early time when it’s not sure cool yet. Lovely!

Love this time of year! Your summer looks are all adorable!
I love how you layered! So pretty
So cute! Imalways on the hunt for sweaters so my Summer dresses last a bit longer. I live in the South so it doesn’t get too cold, but the sweater adds a nice touch.
I don’t want summer to end yet! The winter was so long and miserable I wish I lived in California. This outfit is so cute, I love your dress

I love this look! Part of the fun of building a wardrobe IMO is creating looks that can pull double duty for different seasons.
That cardigan is a great choice and I’m sure you can style it so many different ways!
