As bittersweet as the end of summer is for me, I am always excited to dress for fall weather. The thought of sweaters and boots and plaid and scarves gives me all the warm and fuzzy feels. Charlie and Grace just launched their fall collection and there are SO many good pieces! I wanted to share how to take two of my favorite cardigans from the new collection from summer to fall.
Cardigans make the perfect transition piece because you can wear them with just about anything. I like to pair them with shorts and a tank at the end of summer and beginning of fall when the days are still warm, but the nights and mornings are cooler. As the days get shorts and the temps get cooler, I change out the shorts for a pair of jeans or leggings for a cute and cozy fall outfit. I base my shoes and accessories on the temps as well.
The nice thing about living in Wisconsin is that there does tend to be a transition period between summer and fall where the temps gradually drop. We typically have some days in the ’50s, some days in the ’60s, and some days in the ’70s throughout September and October. We sometimes even get a few last tastes of summer with temps in the 80’s and 90’s as well. As a result of the fluctuating temperatures, watching the weather and dressing appropriately becomes imperative during the transitioning seasons.
Because I have to be prepared for just about anything in terms of fall dressing, I wanted to make sure that I had an outfit for all occasions with these cardigans. And of course, I wanted to share all of them with you! If you’re anything like me, you don’t like making a clothing purchase unless you feel that you have more than one way to wear the item. Here are all of the ways that I have come up with to wear these two cardigans (so far anyways..)
