As a person who loves fashion, dressing up according to the weather is my favorite way to appreciate the season change. Transitioning wardrobe can be overwhelming and expensive with all new trends creeping in. But, focusing on incorporating previous season classics with new season trends can really change your outfit game. Here are some tips on How To Transition Your Workwear For Fall

How To Transition Your Workwear For Fall

1. Wear your summer print dresses with a blazer and boots

Shirt and tee dresses are timeless and seasonless, they can be worn easily all through the year and they never go out of style. Plus, It’s easy to layer them with tights, sweaters, cardigans, and jackets in a colder month. Style your summer dress with a fitted or boyfriend blazer for a quick professional look.

Tip– When choosing a blazer, make sure the shoulders fit right, not too fit or not too loose.

2. Layer summer tanks and tees with long cardigans

It’s as easy as it sounds, wear your tanks with knit mid-length or long cardigans for extra warmth.

Tip– Cardigan in Oatmeal color goes well with most colors.

3. Incorporate fall hues and prints into your outfit

To set the fall mood, go for more warm-toned colors like burgundy, purple, olive, and mustard. Mix and match them like an olive with burgundy or wear them with neutral colors like mustard and blush. Prints like plaid, florals, and animal print are so in for fall.

Tip– Keep either your top or bottom neutral esp in shades of blush and brown for a neutral every day look. Brown and blush compliments all warm colors well and give a fall vibe instantly.

4. Play with Neutrals

Instead of going for regular black and navy colors, give your neutrals a fall spin by opting for earth-toned colors like camel, and cinnamon colors. Mix prints like leopard and plaid that act as neutrals and set a fall mood instantly.

    I love that burgundy courdory skirt it is gorgeous and I agree wearing tank tees with cardi’s is a good way of creating work wear vs casual wear.

    I always keep things separated in my wardrobe, according to season they belong to. I rarely combine one article of clothing with another from different season, but I’ll go for it next time.
