Transitioning From Summer to Fall Trends

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bentley chapter.

Since summer is coming to an end and everyone is back at school, it’s perfect timing to get into new fall wardrobes. And if you’re still loving the summer trends, there are ways you can still wear them but just adding an autumn feel to them.

Bright Neon Jeans to Printed Jeans

Throughout summer, bright-colored jeans were a big trend. And as much as we wish to wear those neon jeans all the time, why not try a pair of printed jeans? The new trend is the floral or patterned jeans that are worn with a plain top. If the prints or patterns are too extreme maybe go for fall colored jeans like maroon, beige, or dark green. Whatever makes you comfortable!

Maxi Dresses to Maxi Skirts

Another popular trend from the summer was the maxi dress. Since the weather doesn’t get cold until the end of October, why not take advantage of it and wear them until you possibly have to pack them up with the rest of your summer clothes? Maxi dresses or skirts are definitely nice to wear when the sun is out and you’re soaking up that last feel of summer.

Outfit Essential: The Blazer

The blazer has become a great staple to go with a simple outfit. Not to mention, it’s so business-esque at Bentley. The blazer went from the usual black or navy blue to subtle patterns and colors are definitely fun to wear this fall. It’s a perfect way to make an outfit casual or formal depending on what you pair it with: leggings, jeans, skirt? Your pick!

Jeans From Head to Toe

Denim on denim has been recently spotted on a few fashionable celebs. You might be thinking, denim on top and jeans on bottom? What? As weird as it sounds, a light denim button down shirt with dark skinny jeans and some statement jewelry is certainly a fall trend.

The Versatile Blouse

Personally, my favorite fall trend is the blouse: sleeveless, studded, printed, or collared. There are so many to choose from! Whether you want to wear it out to a party on a Friday or Saturday night with a bandeau and a skirt, or just with jeans or leggings to class, this top can fit any occasion.

The thought of the start of fall and accepting the fact that summer is basically over can be a tad depressing. Although we have to pack up all our bathing suits and flip-flops, at least we can think about all the exciting fall trends that will give us an excuse to shop. So be eager to try some of these fall trends. Mix and match them to make the perfect fall outfit!
