As we transition from summer to fall, dressing for the in-between weather can feel like a challenge. You might be caught between summer staples and cooler-weather layers, unsure of what to wear. But don’t worry—we’ve rounded up three easy pre-fall outfit ideas that will help you navigate those days when you feel like you have nothing to wear, all while looking effortlessly chic.
1. The All-Neutrals Look
Pre-fall is the perfect time to experiment with neutral tones. The warmth of beige, cream, and camel adds a seasonal touch to your wardrobe without feeling too heavy. Start with a lightweight sweater or long-sleeve top in a soft neutral, and pair it with cropped trousers or a midi skirt for an effortlessly chic look.
- Style Tip: For those cooler mornings, layer a lightweight trench or cardigan over your neutrals. Finish with loafers, sleek mules or matching neutral toned sneakers for a polished touch that keeps you comfortable all day.
2. A Skirt & Breezy Knit Combo
Don’t say goodbye to your favorite skirts just yet! A skirt, whether it’s a solid color, floral, or even leather, is the perfect piece to carry you through the pre-fall season. Pair it with a breezy knit top that’s lightweight but still adds that cozy vibe you’re craving.
- Style Tip: Tuck the knit into your skirt to define your waist and give the outfit some structure. Add boots, flats or block-heeled sandals, depending on the weather, and you’re ready for anything.
3. The Jeans & Light Turtleneck Duo
Jeans are always a safe bet, and during pre-fall, they’re your best friend. Swap out your basic tee for a light turtleneck in a rich hue like olive or black. It’s the perfect in-between piece to keep you warm without feeling weighed down by heavy layers.
- Style Tip: Pair your jeans and turtleneck with a tailored blazer or an oversized cardigan for those breezy days. Complete the look with loafers and don't forget to tuck your turtleneck and finish off the look with a belt.
With these three pre-fall outfit ideas, you’ll have stylish options that work for the unpredictable weather of the season. Whether you’re heading to brunch or running errands, you’ll always feel confident and put together.
