Summer Whites to Fall Style Transition: 3 Easy Looks
As the seasons SLOWLY shift from the super hot summer to the “pumpkin latte” cozy vibes of fall, transitioning your wardrobe can be tricky. One of the easiest and most cost effective ways to navigate this change is by incorporating your favorite summer whites into fall looks with some smart layering and on-trend pieces. Here are three effortless outfit ideas to help you make that stylish transition from summer whites to fall fashion.
You can catch my latest style segment on Daytime sharing live with you these transitions. I had fun with this!
Look 1: White Tee and Orange Skirt
Summer Vibe: A classic white tee paired with a vibrant colored midi skirt is the perfect sunny-day ensemble. The simplicity of the white tee balances out the boldness of the skirt, making it a chic yet easygoing summer look.
Fall Transition: To make this outfit work for cooler temperatures, layer on a British heritage blazer. Think tartans, plaids, or tweeds to add texture and a nod to timeless fall fashion. Finish off the look with suede boots to keep things more festive. The mix of textures and warm tones brings a fall flair to this summery combo, making it both stylish and functional for the season.
Look 2: White Tee or Tank with White Jeans
Summer Vibe: Pairing a white tee or tank top with white jeans and a striped shirt creates a fresh, nautical-inspired look perfect for summer outings.
Fall Transition: As the temperature dips, ditch the striped shirt for a pop of color lime green cashmere sweater—an on-trend color for fall. Add an iguana green belt to bring some subtle contrast and tie the look together. To elevate the ensemble, slip into neutral python boots, another hot trend for fall. These statement pieces will keep your all-white summer base, but with a sophisticated fall twist.
Look 3: White Dress
Summer Vibe: A simple white dress is always on repeat for summer style. Whether for a beach day or a casual outing, it’s a go-to piece for when you want to stay cool and get dressed effortlessly.
Fall Transition: To bring this summer fave into fall, layer it with a leopard print shawl or scarf. This bold print is trending and adds a statement to your look, instantly elevating the dress from summer staple to fall standout. For extra warmth and a layered effect, add a turtleneck underneath the dress. This combination creates an interesting mix of summer and fall, perfect for those in-between days when it’s not quite cold but no longer warm.
PS.
Transitioning from summer to fall doesn’t mean packing away your favorite whites! With the right layers and accessories, you can continue wearing your summer staples while staying on-trend for fall. So, keep that white tee, dress, or pair of jeans out a little longer and enjoy the versatility of your wardrobe. You can shop these looks + a bonus “Professional Fall x Summer Whites” here!
