one floral print shirt, two ways

It’s amazing how one simple swap can completely change the look of an outfit. By simply trading jeans for a midi skirt, this floral print shirt (not to mention the necklace and other accessories) can easily go from a casual fall outfit to a look that’s perfect for a party or could even be worn to work. I love having pieces in my wardrobe that can work overtime!

1/ striped sweater tank // 2/ tweed cardigan // 3/ cuffed jeans // 4/ contra statement necklace // 5/ crossbody clutch // 6/ mixed metal stacking rings // 7/ platform sandals

We’re out that point in the season where mornings and evenings are cool enough for a cozy cardigan, but the days are still super hot. This outfit is pretty much perfect for days like that! (And yes, with the white statement necklace and white shoes, I’m breaking that whole “don’t wear white after Labor Day” rule! But I say rules like that are meant to be broken!)

mix it up by mixing pattern

pattern mixing: bold floral top and bib statement necklace // click through for outfit details

1/ floral blouse // 2/ distressed jeans // 3/ contra bib statement necklace // 4/ floral clutch // 5/ mixed metal stacking rings // 6/ julina booties

I’m a big fan of black and grey when it comes to my wardrobe, but even I like to mix it up from time to time so that I don’t fall into a style rut. Lately, I’ve been finding myself drawn towards layering a big bib necklace over a boldly patterned top. It’s the kind of next level pattern mixing that can really help your style stand out.

how to wear a summer dress into fall: layer over jeans

how to wear a summer dress in fall: layer over jeans with ankle booties // click for outfit details

1/ a-line dress // 2/ distressed jeans // 3/ petite victoria necklace // 4/ curve post earrings // 5/ crossbody bag // 6/ julina booties

Last week I talked about how to transition a simple summer dress into fall. Today, I’m sharing another option: layering a dress over jeans. I love layering dresses over jeans, particular if the dress is a little short for your comfort level. (Especially if you accidentally shrunk it in the wash, which seems to always happen to me!) And of course, you can top this look off with a cardigan (always my preference), jacket or blazer as temps start to drop!

simple casual style

simple casual style: jeans, t-shirt, and a bold stone necklace // click through for outfit details

1/ flecked sweater // 2/ boyfriend jeans // 3/ contra necklace // 4/ hobo bag // 5/ mixed metal stacking rings // 6/ cutout d’orsay flats

I’ve had a busy last couple of weeks and that’s probably going to be my reality for the next few as well. Some of that busyness involves showing up and looking presentable, which is always more challenging when you’re feeling run ragged. Fortunately, I’ve got a secret weapon. I just toss on a fantastic Contra Collection necklace over jeans and a t-shirt and I’ve got a look that’s casual and fabulous at the same time!

When it comes to your wardrobe, certain pieces just scream summer. Like this pair of light colored, floral print pants. But that doesn’t mean you can’t carry them into fall. By swapping a tank and sandals for a sweater and booties, you can keep wearing those floral pants (or whatever summer staple you’re trying to integrate) long after the temperatures drop!

casual style: how to wear flared jeans for fall

casual fall style: how to wear flared jeans and wedges for fall // click through for outfit details

1/ striped sweater // 2/ flared jeans // 3/ contra pendant // 4/ cross body bag // 5/ mixed metal stacking rings // 6/ peep toe wedges

Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of flared jeans and slouchy sweaters popping up in my Pinterest feed, and I have to admit that it’s a casual look I’m starting to love for fall. It’s easy and chic at the same time, especially when you opt for a pair of flared jeans that aren’t super tight on the knee (which tend to read a little young). Wedges are great for adding a bit of height to overly long jeans (especially if you’re too lazy to hem). And if you’re the kind of girl who thinks that wedges don’t work for casual style, give them another try. You’d be surprised at just how comfortable the right pair of wedges can be and the extra height makes even an average day seem so much more interesting.

1/ fight or flight tank // 2/ blanket stitch cape // 3/ slim boyfriend jeans // 4/ large contra pendant // 5/ woven ombre clutch // 6/ mixed metal stacking rings // 7/ flat buckle sandals

I love the combo of grey and cream – it’s a subtler version of grey and white that’s perfect for more casual, relaxed looks! This outfit is perfect for a late summer weekend, just toss on the cape (which is basically a giant blanket scarf – an ideal fall staple) for cooler evenings or air conditioned restaurants!

As I start dreaming about fall, I’m dreaming about endless variations on my go-to outfit – jeans, ankle boots, and a cardigan. This version keeps things easy and casual with flat boots and a simple tank underneath.
