Styling A Floral Fall Dress With Boots

by How She Styles September 27, 2019

This is a go-to look for me when I have no idea what to wear. It’s an outfit that I can throw on and I know the silhouette looks good on me. Nothing beats an easy dress with a cool pair of boots. It’s a great representation of my overall style that I wear over and over again.

I love combining feminine styles with both edgy and masculine elements. I start with the feminine floral dress, and make it a bit edgy with the pointed booties. On cooler days I add a leather moto. I feel like this also could have a boho vibe by adding a suede jacket and felted hat.

This is also one of my most functional transitional outfits because it looks super fall forward, but still works in the warmer moments of early fall. It’s easy to recreate this outfit in your own wardrobe. You can just take out your favorite maxi or midi dress from summer, and throw it on with boots and a jacket.

Truly there is just something about this outfit that makes me feel like a rockstar, but I can’t put my finger on it.

Let me know if you guys liked this look and what your go to fall outfit is in the comments.

Neon Knits: Dressing For Spring When It’s Still Cold

by How She Styles May 3, 2019

In some parts of the country spring hasn’t quite sprung and that means wearing sweaters for just a little bit longer. For me, that means getting the spring feels by wearing bright springtime knits. This gives me spring fever without actually getting a fever from dressing inappropriately. I styled my brightest neon knit two ways so you can see how you can get the most out of your wardrobe.

I love this sweater because it is such a fun pop of color, but in a medium weight sweater so I am able to wear it just about any season except summer.

In spring, I love to wear it with lighter weight bottoms like this to give the outfit a lighter look.

Mixing the bold color with a monochromatic small scale print is an easy way to add interest to the outfit. Sometimes pairing a neon with solid black can create a harsh contrast, so the white dot in this case softens the look.

For this second look, I threw a blazer and jean with this sweater which is my go to. This could be worn on a day where it’s cold in the morning and more mild in the afternoon.

Layering a blazer over a sweater in bright shade like this makes the overall look more polished, while the pop of color livens up this classic look.

Tell me how you indulge your spring fever when it’s still cold outside in the comments. Don’t forget to shop this post down below!

What To Wear Now And Later: Pieces To Transition Into Fall

by How She Styles August 13, 2017

Whether you are ready or not fall is on the horizon. For what a gorgeous summer it was, I am happy for fall to begin. Fall has the feeling of starting fresh and beginning a new chapter like a kid preparing for their first day of school. The thought of the leaves changing and being able to layer my favorite jackets and knits gets me excited.

Until then we need to deal with the weird weather August brings and keep collecting inspiration for fall. Transitional weather is probably most fun for me because it is such a challenge. We are forced to chose pieces carefully for the cool morning which will inevitably turn into a humid afternoon. Then we are forced to adjust again when the first hints of fall weather begin to creep in.

These are the five pieces that will transition you smoothly into fall. If you want to see how I style these pieces check out my video too!

The Romper

Rompers are all one piece and that means less thinking! If you are going out on the town in the evening or running out for some errands rompers can be easily styled for fall. Layering over with your favorite jacket and layer under with some tights, finishing the look with boots.

The Jumpsuit

The jumpsuit, similar to the romper, is all one piece so layering can be done a bit more easily. Choosing a bold printed jumpsuit and simply layering a fitting long sleeve shirt underneath give you and effortless transitional look.

The Maxi Dress

The maxi dress has been all over the place this summer. Especially the shirt and wrap dress styles. It’s a not brainer that these would be the perfect transitional piece for spring. For transitioning a wrap maxi dress the perfect pair of booties and a leather motorcycle jacket would be the perfect combination.

The Midi Skirt

Skirts have also been ruling this summer with midi skirts topping the list. You can basically buy any type of midi skirt in any type of material at this point. In the summer we were wearing denim midi skirts with silky tanks and mules. However, for fall we can pair our midi skirts with masculine loafers and a lightweight knit tucked in the top.

The Slogan Tee

You may be like the rest of the population who went crazy for slogan tees this summer. See how I styled my slogan tee for summer. If so, you have quite a few to play with this fall. Throw on a corduroy blazer and some flared jeans for a seventies inspired fall look with your slogan tee.
