Fall is within reach, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to say goodbye to your summer go-to’s. With the right styling, any item can become seasonless. Here are the 5 warm-weather pieces we don’t want to let go of—and how we’re transforming them for September and beyond.
The White Cami
This item is both a summer must-have and a year-round capsule collection necessity. The shoulder detail lets it stand on its own, but it works just as well as a bottom layer.
In the summer, pair this style with printed capris and espadrilles, the season’s favorite shoes. For fall, layer on a light jacket and add dimension with a floral maxi skirt.
The Kimono
We love the kimono’s ability to add polished style to even the simplest outfits. That’s why we can’t help but wear this effortlessly chic piece year-round.
In the summer, add this layer to seasonal essentials, like easy tees and denim cut-offs—then finish the look with strappy sandals. For fall, swap out shorts for pants and keep your accessories simple.
The Sunny Shell
Nothing brightens up a subdued color palate like a pop of yellow. As the weather cools down, we look to this vibrant hue to keep the memory of sunshine fresh in our minds.
In the summer, give printed shorts their moment to shine and throw straw accessories into the mix. For fall, level up the simplicity of the top with a fun jacket, distressed denim, and sleek slingbacks.
The Linen Dress
The sundress is a timeless option for breezy summer style—but it’s also the perfect easy-to-wear silhouette to stay a constant in your closet rotation.
In the summer, make the dress pop with boldly bright sandals and accessories. For fall, tie a chambray button-down to layer on top and add booties.
The Split-Back Top
When temps are high, showing a little skin becomes more than just a style choice—it’s a necessity. But when the flowy boho vibes are too good to pass up? Layers do the trick.
In the summer, keep things cool by wearing it with light-hued shorts and a lightweight kimono. For fall, use the top to break up an all-over denim look.
