A simple but cute and comfy sweatshirt! These you can find everywhere from target to Etsy. You may think a seasonal sweatshirt isn’t worth the money, but a simple one like this can be worn even when it’s not necessary close to Halloween.
For those of you who want to keep their fall aesthetic more low key these cute pumpkin studs are perfect for any outfit!
This bag also doesn’t scream Halloween, but it’s black and witchy! It’s so cute I might just get one for myself.
Fall is finally here and I am so excited! Fall has always been my favorite time of year so this year I am going all out! Of course I bought a pumpkin mug or two but I am also starting to incorporate some fall pieces. Check out some of my favorites below!
An orange top is one of my new favorite pieces this year! It’s a fall color but can be worn all year long, especially in the right silhouette.
A brown dress might sound a little strange but brown is such a versatile color. It can be worn in fall or spring. Also a brown dress can double as an easy costume paired with the right set on animal ears.
A black top with some puffy or flowy sleeves. You can also opt for a dress but I love putting this one on and feel like a bad a** witch.
What’s your favorite thing to wear for fall?
You may be thinking, what is a transitional outfit and why do I need one, but transitional outfits are a fun way to wear your fall clothing without dying in the still summer heat! Some of my favorite ways to wear fall trends during August and September are finding versatile pieces and dressing them down. For example a plaid skirt with a sweater is a fall classic, but switch it up with a bright tee or crop top and you have a great summer look! Another way to really bring in Fall into your wardrobe is with your color pallet. You know that brown mini dress you always wear with your favorite coat? Put on a pair of white sandals and sunglasses and you have a great transitional look. Or wear that orange crop top you usually save for October out now and add a yellow bag. If you really want to wear your favorite sweater out try wearing it around your shoulders, it’s super cute but definitely not as warm! August and September are the beginning of the best time of year, so don’t be afraid to start wearing your orange and black and drinking something pumpkin spice.
I love a great oversized blazer, whether it’s colorful, patterned or simplistic, pair this with any of the following of a cute but put together look!
Another fun and easy piece is a slip dress or a simple and classic baby doll. This minimal piece is great for when the weather gets warmer and you can pair it with:
That old tee that you got from vacation 10 years ago that you never wear. I feel like I have a thousand of these old shirts in my closet, but these aren’t just for sleeping! You can dress them up or down and wear them outside of your house! Try them with:
Sometimes when you think you have nothing to wear you just need to take another peak into your closet!
A capsule wardrobe was a term first coined in the 1940s. It is a wardrobe that contains a few small pieces all of the same color scheme that can easily be mixed and matched to effortlessly create multiple outfits. I love using a capsule wardrobe for all of my basics and then adding pops of color and trends throughout. A capsule wardrobe contains things of good quality and fit that can last years. A few things for a capsule wardrobe could be:
These are basic items that you can and will wear over and over. These may not necessarily be trendy or particularly your style, but once incorporated anyone can wear these! A capsule wardrobe may also include items that are more similar to your particular fashion taste and style! Some of these items might include like:
Again these items might be thought of as more trendy but also still very versatile when paired with different outfits! My biggest tip when starting to create a capsule wardrobe is to try and stick with a color scheme. It doesn’t mean that everything has to be black, white, grey, but if colors are your thing try and stick with all neons or pastels, or maybe more earthy tones are more your style. Just be aware when buying items for your wardrobe buy items you love to wear and are comfortable. Starting to invest in a capsule wardrobe will not only save you time and money, but will also help cut down on waste. Everyone should start one, just one piece at a time.
