The summer always seems to fly by and fashion for this season can be short-lived. This is why I like to try and purchase pretty pieces that will be able to transition to the next season. Take a look in your wardrobe for items that will work and just swap out sandals and straw bags for some great Fall accessories.
You don’t have to let go of your beloved summer pieces just yet – with a little creativity, make them work for the changing season and transform your summer wardrobe into a chic fall palette.
Keep scrolling to see how I styled and transitioned two of my fave Revolve pieces from summer chic to fall fabulous.

STYLE 1: MIDI DRESS - $238
(Available in 2 colors)
I recently discovered this printed midi dress from REVOLVE and love the unique butterfly pattern and flattering fit. Ruching always seems to do the trick to cover up anything “extra” around the waist. 😊 The slit is a bit high and the dress is form-fitting and sexy. If you are not comfortable with the slit, it’s an easy quick fix at the tailor! It also comes in a fabulous skirt.

✨Glow Girl Certified Transitional Styling Tips:
Lean toward adding neutral accessories or one pop of color that works well with summer shades as well as Fall
Add layers like a blazer or leather jacket for a more sophisticated style (and added warmth!)
Opt for a closed toe shoe like a classic neutral pump or bootie for fall
Don’t be afraid to mix different materials like cotton with wool
Say yes to wearing white after Labor Day but make sure you adjust your accessories to reflect more of a wintery vibe
