Style Shift: Endless Summer to Fall Essentials

Even though summer still has plenty of sun and fun in store, we’re eagerly looking ahead to autumn, too. To navigate the shift from endless summer’s warm forecasts to those first days with a chill in the air, you’ll need some hardworking and versatile looks in your closet. Luckily, we’ve got just the thing with our roundup of must-haves for summer to fall transitional outfits.

Sleeve Season: After a summer filled with sleeveless and strapless styles, it’s time to welcome sleeves back into your wardrobe rotation! The perfect fall transition dress pairs sleeve coverage with a fabric that’s still cool enough for steamy days. Wear breezy short-sleeve styles like the Olivine Dress and cotton jersey Bingley Dress solo as summer winds down, then pop on a card i when fall arrives. The Drena Dress offers long-sleeve coverage in our lightweight cotton poplin, while the Iralanne Dress is a shoulder season social standout in flowy crepe satin.

Midi & Maxi Moments: If you prefer leg coverage in your transitional wardrobe, then choose midi and maxi styles following the same fabric formula: airy enough for now, versatile enough for later. Jersey maxis like the Carmilla Dress and Ellison Dress are multi-season staples; just add a denim jacket when you’re feeling chilly. Same goes for the swingy cotton cambric Zanna Midi Dress. In dreamy cotton lawn, the Corina Midi Skirt looks great with your favorite tanks and sandals now, then longer sleeves and flats or sneakers in cooler weather.

Hot-to-Cool Hues: Crisp, chic, and classic neutrals make it easy to build cute fall transitional outfits in a snap. Our perennial favorites? Navy and white. You have our permission to break the ‘rules’ and keep wearing the Ariella Linen Maxi Dress long after Labor Day; just toss a sweater over your shoulders as needed. Perfect for pairing with bold accessories, our navy-grounded Summer Shorelines print looks great for one last beach getaway and well into autumn. You’ll find it in a wide range of season-to-season styles including the Dune UPF 50+ Dress, Elsa Silk Top, and Chace Maxi Dress. For timeless options, a navy blue dress is always a chic choice, while a breezy green dress brings a fresh pop of color that feels perfect for both summer escapes and fall outings.

No matter the season, keep your spirits and your style sunny! xx, Lilly
