Summer is coming to an end, school is back in session and fall is creeping up around the corner. The weather is changing, and so are everyone’s outfits. As I walk around campus, I notice that this transitional period of temperatures has had quite the effect on people’s fashion choices. Within a brief walk from one class to another, I’ve seen people in shorts and tank tops, jeans and T-shirts and sweatshirts and leggings. Wait a month, and you’ll see a winter coat on top of all of that, not kidding.
So how does a person dress for 60 degree mornings to 80 degree afternoons? It’s simple: layering! Layering is a life saver when it comes to drastic changes in temperatures throughout the day. You can “layer it on” to keep warm in the chilly mornings and take off pieces to stay cool once it warms up.
This Fashionista knows how to layer in style! She’s rocking an oversized, turtleneck sweater from the LOFT and styled it by knotting it in the front. She’s layering this over a flowy, handkerchief-hem dress from Free People to create a comfy, boho vibe. She killed this look by adding a some trendy, lace-up sandals, a black stiff-brimmed hat and a funky, colorful hair piece. This Fashionista sure knows how to play up the layering with trendy pieces that can be styled in many ways.
Too hot in this outfit? Take off the sweater and tie it around your waist, ditch the hat, and add a cool pair of sunnies.
This Fashionista says, “I like to take different seasonal pieces from my closet and create easy outfits that are adaptable for the weather. I think layering the wintery sweater over a summery dress creates a fun, fall look with a boho twist. You’d be surprised with what all you can come up with by pairing different pieces in your closet!”
