The chilly autumn vibes are here, and with them the need for a clothing transition.
I can feel how stepping into the next season may feel; that womanly urge to revamp your wardrobe! Yeah, we all feel it! But we can’t really change the whole closet within days.
What we can do instead is transition your summer clothes for the fall season! It’s equally exciting, budget-friendly, and a whole new way of styling the same dress!
However, not all summer garments can be a good choice for the next season. With this Girl Nine’s guide, let’s explore the ladies tops and bottoms that can be best suited for a seasonal wardrobe transition.
Can You Wear Summer Clothes in Fall?
Absolutely!
Some summer clothes are made to last off-season. They can be as good a partner for autumn as they were for the sunny months. However, a great transition will take some extra creativity and styling tips. But first, you should know what clothes are ideal for your wardrobe transition.
What Summer Clothes Can You Wear in Autumn Also?
Either male or female, some garments are made to last all year long. Even delicate summer clothes can be your cozy partner in the fall.
Ladies, you can keep the following summer items in your fall wardrobe;
- Undergarments
- Kameez And Trouser
- Denim JeansÂ
- T-Shirts And Tunics
- Long Dresses and Frocks
- Nighties And Pajama SuitsÂ
Some items like shorts or deep-neck dresses may not be much suited for chilly winds. So, say goodbye and pack them up for the next year’s summer.
8 Ways to Transition Your Summer Dresses into Fall
Staying in vogue is all about being creative with your dresses. Add a bit of spark to your autumn styling with these transition ideas for your summer favorites;
- Layer Up
First and foremost, layer, layer, and layer all the way!
Layering is one of the fashion practices that keep you in the front row of fashionistas. It is especially something to go for during chilly days.
Grab any favorite summer dress or tunic and layer it with a light cardigan. Throw a stylish blazer over your plain t-shirt for a chic outing look. Layers not only add warmth but also create depth and interest in your outfit. Consider adding vests, scarves, or even lightweight ponchos for that extra touch of autumn fashion.
- Layer Them OVER
Who says you can only layer ABOVE your summer clothes? Not us!
There’s another fun way to rock your summer dresses without hiding them under a sweater: layering them over a sweater!
Pick a fitted thin turtleneck or a wool camisole as the first layer. On top, wear your favorite summer dress with confidence, without having to worry about cold or taking a shawl with you everywhere. Make sure the under-layer you choose is not too heavy or bulky. Otherwise, your dress with look all bulgy and lose its charm. Â
- Combine Unique FabricsÂ
Summer clothes are commonly made with lightweight materials like cotton or lawn. These fabrics can be too light to block the autumn winds. Make them thicker by pairing them with a heavier material like silk, wool, or velvet.
Thick denim, leather, or khaddar can be some good pairing choices here. Consider this style for example; a printed ladies' tunic topped with a denim jacket and jeans on the bottom. It makes a perfect modern yet cozy look. Similarly, you can use a khaddar shawl above your summer lawn Kurti for a quick and versatile style. Â
- Tights and Leggings
Tights and leggings are the bottom types that can make any dress autumn-friendly. They not only keep you warm but also add a whole new comfort level to your outfits. Pair your summer tunics or dresses with thick tights in dark hues like black, burgundy, or brown. This combination keeps you moving through the cold days all while flexing your summer floral dresses.
- Footwear Transition
Who knew changing just your footwear could change your whole dressing mood?!
With the transition of summer to autumn, transition your sandals to ankle boots or pumps. Ankle boots, especially in neutral tones, can complement almost any outfit. They not only provide warmth but also give your ensemble a polished, autumn-ready look.
Any summer dress paired with cute denim bottoms and boots is a stylish way to welcome autumn. Don’t forget about the socks to add an extra layer of warmth.
- Shawl or Scarf to the Rescue!Â
Forget about wearing anything under or over your dress. Simply stop the cold winds with a cozy shawl or scarf!
For a Pakistani shalwar kameez or similar eastern wear, go for shawls spread over your shoulders. When going for a western look, tie up a wool scarf above graphic tees or a short frock. The best part about this tip is that you can remove the covering anytime if you feel hot.
You can choose an embellished shawl for parties or semi-formal events. A silk scarf is another great choice to add charisma and luxury to your overall look.
- Accessorize Mindfully
The last point to complete your summer-turned-autumn look is choosing the right accessories.
Replace your straw hat with a beanie or a bucket hat. Lock away your net summer dupattas and take out wool mufflers or scarves. Similarly, bracelets are more of a summer accessory. Replace it with a watch or thin gloves for fashion as well as coverage. Voila! Now you are all ready for an exciting autumn fashion-fare!
- Shop Fall-Friendly ClothesÂ
It’s not a transition clothing but an additional shopping tip. When the summer is leaving, purchase clothes that are easy to transition. Look for sleeve lengths that can be easily layered with jackets or cardigans. For example, a t-shirt with full sleeves, girls' denim jeans, or a collared tunic to easily layer it up or down. They provide the comfort of summer dresses while being adaptable to fall weather.
