The weather is slowly changing from summer to fall, making it quite difficult to decide what to wear. It’s too cold to wear shorts, but too warm to wear a sweater.
So, what do you wear? This is a common question I ask myself in the morning. The day tends to start off cold, so it would cause many people to wear pants and a thick sweater. This obviously becomes unpractical as the day progresses and the sun starts to bake the day away. Here is my solution:
Cardigans.
Cardigans aren’t only fashionable, but they are also practical. These light sweaters tend to add the perfect amount of warmth in the morning, and can be easily taken off (or rolled up) as the day warms up. I personally love to wear cardigans when it begins to get cold. It helps to put a nice cardigan over a short sleeve, so when the day gets hot you can just push up the sleeves.
Rolled Pants: If you roll up the cuff of your pants to show off your snazzy long socks and shoes. You don’t have to roll it up too much of course; just roll it up enough to hide the seam an extra 1/2 inches to an 1 inch. By doing so, it’ll help make you look more stylish while wearing your pants and help keep you more comfortable with your warm socks.
Flannels: The warm material of a flannel helps you stay warm all day. Rolling up the sleeves allows you to stay fall-chic and comfortable. I personally don’t like flannels due to the fact that they can be worn wrong very easily- but I won’t be biased. If you wear a cool graphic T-shirt with a flannel over- or button down the flannel- but remember to roll the sleeves.
I like these looks because it has a more relaxed looked to it, without looking too grungy. I see many student Fashionistas around campus sporting a variety of these styles; these tips easily compliment each other, so choose whatever makes you comfortable. When it’s cold outside tomorrow morning: grab those jeans, a nice graphic T-shirt and your favorite pair of trendy boots then you’ll be sporting that “Almost-Fall” look.
