Summer to Fall Looks

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

The few weeks between the end of summer and start of fall is right up there with growing out your bangs in terms of awkward transition periods. You’re back to school, and although something just seems wrong about wearing your favorite summer shorts to class, there’s simply no other way to deal with the still warm weather. Even though it’s September, the temperatures continue to hover between seventy and eighty. While it’s nice to still hang onto your summer wardrobe, we’re all secretly dying to whip out those fall clothes (They’re the only plus side to cooler weather!). So what’s a girl to do? Incorporate your summer and fall pieces together!

This long-sleeved dress is a great fall staple, but still shows enough skin to keep you cool when temperatures spike. Pair it with your favorite sandals to hold onto that summer vibe.

You know that favorite sweater that’s really more for looking good than keeping you warm? The one you simply can’t wait to break out of your closet? Well, wait no more. Now’s the perfect time to throw it on over a pair of shorts. Warm enough for an air-conditioned class, cool enough to wear for your post-class walk through the Commons.

When the weather gets a little cooler, pair your favorite skirt with lacy tights. Not too suffocating if it gets warm during the day, but just enough coverage to say, “I’m ready for fall!”
