Getting the most out of your wardrobe in any season is all about clever styling. Your favourite piece doesn’t always have to be constrained to one season whether that’s a gorgeous summer dress or a pleated maxi skirt. As we begin to transition into the colder months, I’m sharing a three-part series on how to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall, starting with your favourite summer skirt. A pleated maxi skirt is a staple in any closet, and when you come to love a piece so much, why should you have to put it away so quickly Today is about how to style a summer skirt in the fall while still looking chic and feeling it too.
Summer To Fall Styling
A maxi or midi pleated skirt is an ultra feminine piece but if you’ve been reading TSS for long enough now you know that I love to create an outfit with contrasts. To add a little bit of edge, I paired my white skirt with another staple in your wardrobe; the leather jacket. I love the look of a masculine piece combined with a feminine one, especially for summer to fall. I wore a tank top inside but really wanted to use the jacket as my top for a unique look. I know that a good quality leather jacket can be expensive, but it’s a purchase that will last you for life and is worth the investment.
Another great variation on this look, especially if you live in a country like India (shout out to my Indian followers!) is to swap the leather jacket for a blazer. You can always wear a bandeau on the inside as well!
I carried on this theme with my accessories. Of course, my current obsession is cowboy boots (get ready to see them A LOT) and they worked so beautifully with the pleated skirt since they aren’t too high. I also added in one more summery touch with my Gas hoop earrings. Truly, this outfit is a mix of my favourite summer pieces with my favourite fall ones!
