I guess you could say we’re well into fall at this point. But for me, I still feel like were “transitioning” – maybe thats just the California POV, or maybe all of fall is an awkward transition into winter? Ya ever thought of that???
Reasons why its particularly hard layering the in the fall:
- The morning “it’s cold out now” dress routine hasn’t fully formed yet. For sure it takes time getting back into the swing of that! 😯
- Mr. Weather cannotttt make up it’s mind! Raining yesterday morning, sunny and 70 today, but 60 with high winds tomorrow?! Gimme a break! ⛅️☀️☔️
- Your office building still blasts air conditioning because winter heat hasn’t kicked on yet, but you started to heat your house already… outside air is brisk, but public transportation incubates in heat…Toooo many variables! 😩😩
Tips for tackling fall layering and the transition of season:
- Layering a light sweater or cardigan over a crisp button up. I love the shorter, boxy pullovers that allow some peaking out the bottom, really breaking up the colors and fabrics of your entire look.
- Speaking of crisp button up… those with no sleeves will be your savior!!! Layer them under sweaters, collar out, for that edgy, chic fall vibe without the urge to rip off all outer layers when you walk inside. 🙌
- Play to the fall color themes! – This straw fedora I wear most during summer but paired with black, olive and camel brings out a color palette which allows the hat to jump into the fall ready zone! 🍂🍃🍂
- Don’t forget the little guys! Stacking up accessories is another fall layering tactic (cause who really wants to be more covered in sticky summer😜). Bring on the hats, metal bangles/cuffs and chunky necklaces then you’re fall ready!!
Since you can’t run out the door with your big winter coat just yet, take those tips 👆 to help you adjust your morning dress routine! I know for me, it’s always super hard to change dressing habits with the season. After all, your system was perfected for the last 3 months! Then poof! 😬 But before you know it fall will be gone too so get after it ladies! 👍💃
