5 (Killer) Ways to Extend the Life of Your Summer Wardrobe

Do you feel a crisp chill in the air?

Worried you're going to have to go out and buy a whole new wardrobe?

Well honestly, to me, that sounds like a dream but alas, it isn't very practical.

Here are 5 (Killer) Ways to Extend the Life of Your Summer Wardrobe!

Summer 2015, it's been real.

I love Fall just as much as the next girl. Seriously, did all of us girls have a meeting and agree that Fall is the best season, like, ever? I have yet to meet a girl whose favorite season wasn't Fall. Am I right or am I right?! 

While the idea of blowing cash on a completely new "Summer to Fall" wardrobe just about sounds like Heaven, it's not very practical... Or so the husband says. 

:/

But never fear! Here are:

5 (Killer) Ways to Extend the Life of Your Summer Wardrobe

1. Layer with Cardis.

Extend the life of those Summer tanks and sleeveless blouses with cardis. All you need is a few simple ones in colors you love to wear frequently. Think your neutrals (navy, gray, black, cream & taupe!) and you'll be able to wear your favorite summer shirts and sundresses long after skies are grey.

2. Add Tights or Leggings.

Think September 1st marks the end of sundresses? Think again. Add thick tights or leggings underneath your favorite sundress. Don't forget you can always wear tights underneath shorts for a very sophisticated and Parisian look. Pair a cozy cardi on top and you'll be cute, fashionable AND warm all Fall long. 

3. Layer Layer Layer.

The transition from Summer to Fall can be tricky. There are plenty of days when it isn't quite warm enough for short sleeves, but it isn't quite cool enough for long sleeves either. Have a favorite sundress? Have a favorite neutral sweater? Get those babes married then why don't you! Sure, it may get hot throughout the day and you might have to take off the sweater at some point, but when it gets a bit chilly you'll have it with you. Nothing is less attractive than goosebumps (or goose pimples if you live in the U.K).

4. Roll Em Up.

The temperature can vary widely throughout the day. Stay comfortable by rolling up your long sleeves or pant legs into cute cuffs. You've seen it in the magazines, those cuffed pants with some sexy heels or casual Keds? Soooo "in" right now. Plus, you'll be chic and comfortable. Win-Win much? Heck yes!

5. Add a Scarf.

If scarves aren't your favorite fashion accessory-- they should be. Something as simple as adding a scarf can really dress up your outfit or make it more playful. You don't have to wear itchy thick scarves to stay warm either. You may be surprised how warm a light scarf can keep you when you wrap it up right. Check out Pinterest to find a plethora of ways to tie your scarves. There are literally hundreds of creative and unique ideas just waiting to be utilized.
