Transitioning into Fall!

We don't know about you, but this cold front in Austin is getting us in the fall mood! While we'd love to buy a new wardrobe for every season, we're going to talk about transitioning summer pieces into the cooler months for now. 

We love jean jackets. Let's just get that out there. They add an edgy yet earthy vibe to outfits without being too bulky. Here, we threw our Dip Dyed Denim Jacket over a light white top, orange skater skirt and jewel necklace. By throwing on a lightweight jean jacket with a skirt and airy top, your summer outfit becomes fall focused without being too warm or bulky. 

We're not ready to say goodbye to our summer dresses. The floral detailing on this hippie-chic dress reminds us of warmer times, while the heavy knit of this sweater has us feeling warm and cozy! By pairing these similar length pieces, both of which are sleeveless, this dress transitions into fall without being too bulky.

Maxi dresses are a staple in our summer wardrobe. Unfortunately, they can consume your frame if you pair them with a sweater or bulky jacket. By putting a jean shirt over your maxi dress, as a pseudo jacket, your can hold on to wearing your maxi dress a little longer and stretch your wardrobe.

During the summer months, we'd pair a maxi skirt with a light tank top to balance out the proportions and keep us cool. As the weather is changing, we're switching out our tank tops for denim shirts to add a little weight to the outfit to keep you warm!

This summery skirt was a staple in our wardrobe the past couple months. We're now pairing it with a light sweater to make it feel a little more autumn appropriate! The natural gem necklace adds a touch of fall to the outfit, reminding us of the changing leaves.

This cold front in Austin has us so excited for the cooler weather.  What pieces are sure to stay in your closet's rotation as the weather cools down? Let us know!

Hot Dresses That Keep You Cool

"It's getting hot, hot, hot" You know that obnoxious song you hear nonstop at resorts/on vacation? Well it's now becoming a way to describe the daily weather, especially in Texas! We love the warm weather,  don't get us wrong, but sometimes no matter what you wear you still feel like you're melting! Luckily, we have some great lightweight clothing to keep you from feeling smothered this summer!

Our first cool (get it?) dress is this adorable printed shift! This dress is super lightweight and airy, plus it comes already accessorized, win-win! The thin yet durable fabric of this dress makes it perfect for throwing on when your friends want to grab lunch or go shopping! Plus this dress is a perfect transition dress as it looks great with a blazer and heels for work, sandals for a casual errand day, and pumps for a night on the town!

We love denim, as a matter of fact, we're always reaching for denim shirts when styling, so when we saw this adorable denim dress we fell in love! This dress is super lightweight and casual, making it perfect for the warmer months! It looks adorable with sandals or cowboy boots and burnt orange accessories! It can also be dressed up by throwing on a cardigan or blazer and nice shoes!

This dress is so light and airy that we had a hard time of making it stay still while trying to photograph it! We love the deep open V in the back as it makes this dress flirty and stylish while giving you room to breathe, serving double duty! We also can't get over the adorable pattern on the dress that makes it a little more interesting while camouflaging any sweat!

For the occasions when you need to dress up a little more, or show a little Longhorn pride this summer, this dress is great! Again, by pairing it with a blazer or cardigan it can be dressed up and transitioned to night time! Just like the printed dress above, the open back detailing on this dress will help you breathe and feel cool during the warmer months! Extra perk of this burnt orange dress: it transitions great into football season!

With these summer dresses you can look hot while staying cool so stop in the store or online to get ready for summer!
