How to Transition Your Wardrobe From Summer to Fall

How to Transition Your Wardrobe From Summer to Fall

As the warm, sunny days of summer start to cool down into the crisp breezes of fall, updating your wardrobe to match the seasonal shift is essential. At Coco & Capri, we specialize in helping fashion-forward women like you transition smoothly with style and flair. Here's how you can refresh your wardrobe with our latest fall trends, ensuring you remain chic and comfortable as you move from summer picnics to autumn evenings.

Start with Strategic Layering

Layering is more than just a practical approach to dealing with fluctuating temperatures—it's a style strategy. Begin with lightweight pieces from your summer wardrobe, such as tank tops or thin blouses, and layer them under chunky knitwear or stylish cropped jackets. This technique allows you to retain elements of your summer style while staying warm. Plus, layering adds complexity and interest to your outfits, making them more dynamic and fashionable.

Start with our favorite lightweight sundress, and build layers with a jacket and necklaces.

Introduce Animal Prints

Animal prints are a perennial favorite that roars back into style every fall. They are perfect for making a bold statement. You can incorporate animal prints into your wardrobe, from a leopard print scarf or a pair of zebra print boots to a full-on cheetah print dress. These patterns work well as accent pieces or as the centerpiece of your outfit, depending on how adventurous you feel.

Opt for Longer Silhouettes

As the days get cooler, longer clothing pieces become more practical and stylish. Transition your wardrobe with maxi dresses, long skirts, and overcoats that keep you warm and look elegantly effortless. These pieces are versatile enough to be dressed up for the office, an evening out, or casual weekend activities.

Embrace Comfort with Knit Sets

Knit sets have become a staple for those looking for comfort without compromising style. Coco & Capri offers a variety of knit sets that are perfect for the chillier months. These sets can be as cozy as they are chic, providing a polished look that's effortless to put together. They're perfect for lounging at home, running errands, or grabbing a casual brunch with friends.

Incorporate Band Tees

Band tees are an excellent way to keep your summer vibe rolling into fall. They bring an edge to any outfit and are incredibly versatile. Layer them under a denim jacket or pair them with a high-waisted skirt and boots for a rock 'n' roll chic look. Band tees also offer a great way to showcase your personality and music tastes while staying on-trend.

Our women’s Morgan Wallen band tee is the perfect vintage-style find.

Transition with Cropped Jackets

Cropped jackets are ideal for the transition period because they provide warmth without the heaviness of a full winter coat. Whether it's a cropped denim jacket for a casual look or a cropped blazer for something more formal, these pieces are great for those days when the temperature is unpredictable.

This women’s faux fur cropped coat is a must for fall.

Flaunt Ruffle Sleeve Tops

Ruffle-sleeve tops are another great transitional piece. They add a touch of femininity and sophistication to any outfit and are light enough to wear on warmer fall days. Pair them with jeans for a casual look or a skirt and heels for a night out.

Refresh Your Accessories

Accessories are the easiest way to transition your wardrobe from one season to the next. A switch from light, breezy scarves to more substantial, woven ones can make a significant difference. Similarly, swapping out summer sandals for boots or introducing darker, richer colors into your accessory choices can shift the tone of your wardrobe to something more appropriate for fall.
