Tips & Tricks — fall fashion

It’s that time of the year again when the seasons are changing, the leaves are starting to turn and we're all left wondering what to wear.  One of the pesky things about transitioning from summer to fall clothes is never knowing what the weather's going to be like and what to wear. The temperature is always changing between warm and cold which makes it complicated to find an outfit suitable for the day!

Here are four ways to turn your favorite summer clothes into a stylish chilly-weather outfit:

-Always have a jacket with you. We all have those days when we're busy running around town. If you grab a light jacket before leaving the house in the morning, it doesn’t matter if you lose track of time and the temperature drops before you can get home and change because you're prepared.  If you’re warm mid-day, drape your jacket across your shoulders as a stylish accessory.

-Wear tights with dresses. Want to keep wearing your summer dresses? Wearing tights under your dress is the perfect solution to change up your look and stay warmer during chilly fall nights.

-Wear a scarf and tall boots. Boots may just be the best thing about fall!  Accessories like cozy scarves and tall boots are a great way to add warmth on days that are chilly but not quite jacket weather.  

-Wear cardigans. Cardigans are so versatile that they can be worn pretty much any time with anything.  They are also a great way to change up your look by adding a pop of colour, or a new print, while also adding an extra layer for warmth.

New York Fashion Week is still in full swing and this season an interesting niche trend has popped up:  bird prints.  Animals of all kinds were embellished on everything from blouses to handbags, but birds had a particularly popular showing.  We love how they add a simple elegance to basic looks.  Will this trend take flight in your fall wardrobe?
