Just because we’re creeping into Fall doesn’t mean we have to completely abandon our Summer fashion favorites. I don’t know about you, but I can’t put away my warm weather clothes and jump right into sweaters. I like to mix it up around this time of year and I sort of have a formula for making it all work.
First things first, keep the colors neutral. Anything too dark will read cold weather, anything bright will look too summery. Most of my wardrobe is neutral so this part is pretty easy for me.
No matter what colors or prints you wear during this season, try to keep your fabric choices lightweight. Keep everything in balance and maybe wear only one item that’s “Fall-ish.” Try mixing suede shorts or a skirt with a cotton blazer like I did, or you could swap out the suede for leather or a heavy knit.
I have a year-round rule when it comes to accessories and that’s to always choose wisely. I like things that are bold and feminine like this turquoise colored bubblegum pinky ring by David Yurman. The color looks great against a nude color palette.
So that’s my formula: neutral colors, balanced fabrics, and one vibrant accessory. Try this breakdown the next time you’re having a hard time putting together an outfit this season.

Love the outfits! Everything is really classy except that you’re not wearing a bra and your top is super see thru :/
I notice this in a lot of your outfits. Any reason why you don’t use nipple covers?
