Shopping for lightweight sweaters, trench coats and denim jackets make it easy to extend your summer looks into the cooler months. Layering gives you flexibility to adjust your outfit as temperatures shift throughout the day.
Switch your bright summer shades for warm neutrals and rich tones like burgundy, army green and caramel to give your style a seasonal refresh. Mocha, in particular, is a standout color for fall 2025.
As open-toe shoes get tucked away, swap them for slides, loafers or boots. Chunky socks not only add warmth but also deliver a stylish finishing touch.
When you start to put your shorts away for the season, switching out to lightweight trousers or cropped denim can provide more coverage but won't be too heavy for some of the warmer weather that might linger or show up unexpectedly -- trending denim like the barrel jean cut (which we saw a spike in the early summer) is a fun way to add a trend to your essentials.
Scarves, hats and thicker belts are easy transitional wardrobe answers. Depending on the color and style, these accessories can add a cozy, fall-like touch to your summer wardrobe.
