August 14th, 2018 by Jennifer Beile 3 Summer Trends to Take Into Fall

Summer may be coming to an end sooner than we want, but that doesn’t mean that your favorite fashion trends have to be stashed away in the back of your closet until next year. Fall is all about layering and transitional dressing, meaning it’s easier than ever to get the most out of your summer wardrobe.

Here are three summer trends you can take into the fall season, plus how to style them for the cooler weather!

 

1. Silky Slip Skirts and Dresses

Top your silky slip with a chunky knit sweater and a great pair of boots, and you’ll have a new go-to outfit this fall!

 

2. Neon Colors

The weather may be a bit more dreary in the fall, but that doesn’t mean your wardrobe has to be. From sweaters to accessories and makeup, don’t be afraid to bring your favorite bright and bold neon colors into fall.

 

3. Breezy White Dresses

Breaking the rule of not wearing white after Labor Day has become almost expected—fall and winter whites are now a wardrobe staple! Layer up your favorite white summer dresses, or look for a white dress with full, exaggerated sleeves and finish it with a pair of your favorite sneakers or booties.

August 10th, 2018 by Samantha Weaver New In: Sporty Stripes for Men and Women

This fall, the athleisure trend is getting a revamp! Instead of just wearing your gym clothes out, glam them up with bold, graphic stripes! Ladies, think Gucci meets Sporty Spice (minus the wedge sneakers)—and for the guys, try the stripe trend in your outerwear!

 

This classic ’90s skater sweater is a must for fall! Pair our Skate Stripe Pullover ($32.50) with jeans and a leather crossbody.

 

Striped Flare Trouser ($25) These high-waisted flared trousers just scream Sporty Spice! With a full slit from ankle to knee, they’ll look great with a pullover and your favorite Adidas.

 

Game Day Fleece ($28.50) It’s almost football season, and whether you’re watching the game or headed to the gym, this striped full-zip sweatshirt is the perfect layer to throw on over your outfit.

Nail the perfect summer look with a light romper. Stick to fabrics like linen and cotton that won’t leave you feeling constricted when you start to break a sweat.

 

Pair a floaty wrap skirt with a cami or tank top.

 

Committed to wearing all black for all four seasons? Pick up a black crop top and a pair of high-waisted shorts!

 

Keep your look sweet and simple: wear a pair of jean shorts and toss on an off-the-shoulder top. This look is versatile enough for you to wear while running errands or meeting your favorite gal pals for lunch.

 

It’s safe to say that a sundress is the ultimate heat-proof essential!

 

Ditch the jeans this summer and go for loose-fitting pants that won’t cling to your body. Pair these oversized pants with a cami top for extra style points.
