How To Transition A Summer Outfit Into Fall

Share This!

Thank you to Nordstrom and rewardStyle (LTK) for sponsoring this post. As always, all opinions are my own.

When the weather starts turning cool, that means Fall is on its way! There is the crisp Fall temps, hay rides, leaves turn beautiful shades of red, yellow and brown and don’t forget the pumpkin spice! When we don’t want to let go of our Summer clothes, you can easily transition them to Fall outfits!

One of my most favorite stores to shop is Nordstrom!  Nordstrom carries lots of brand names you can shop. Just a few name brands at Nordstrom are Madewell, AG and Wit & Wisdom, plus Nordstrom also has their Nordstrom-Made Brands, which are exclusively at Nordstrom, which include their Caslon, Halogen and Zella in-house brands. One of the perks of shopping at Nordstrom is The Nordy Club, their rewards program! Whenever you shop at Nordstrom, your purchases earn you points, which in turn you receive in Nordstrom Notes. Then, you spend your Nordstrom Notes on anything at Nordstrom!

For size reference, my height is 5’9″ and I weigh 160 lbs. For tops, I typically wear a size Medium (10) or Large (12), depending on the brand and fit of the top (for slim fit tops, I usually size up to a Large). For bottoms, my normal size is a 10 OR a 30/31 waist, a 10-inch high rise fits my waist best and a 28 inch inseam falls right at my ankle. My shoe size is 9 medium.

The Summer Outfit

One of my favorite outfits to wear during the Summer is a tee, jeans and sandals. This outfit includes all basic essentials in neutral colors, which you can easily mix and match with other clothes in your closet.

What I’m Wearing:

Caslon Black Rounded V-Neck Tee (size Medium) – Caslon tees are so soft and they look great with shorts, jeans and pants! They come in several colors to choose from. I’m wearing the black color, which is a soft black. Instead of the black tee, you could substitute the white tee or the navy tee!

Paige Cindy High Waist Straight Leg Jeans (size 31) – I bought these jeans in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale last month. Paige jeans is one of my favorite jeans brands and I love how they fit and the denim color. These jeans are a slim straight style, so they still give some shape without being too relaxed or too tight. They have a 10 1/2″ rise, 28″ inseam and have a bit of stretch with the 93% cotton, 5% polyester, 2% spandex blend.

Birkenstock Arizona Big Buckle Slide Sandal in the “antique cognac oiled leather” color (size 9/40) – I have been wanting these sandals since last year and since I had just earned a Nordstrom Note, I use it and saved money on these sandals! I absolutely enjoy wearing Birkenstock sandals for both the style and comfort. I love the cognac color with the big buckle style!

Madewell Medium Transport Tote in the “english saddle” color – I have had this tote for several years and it’s one of my favorite bags. Brown is a great neutral color and coordinates well with lots of colors. I love the rich brown color of this tote and the pebbling of the leather gives this tote a nice softness.

Nordstrom Gold Cubic Zirconia Pendant Necklace – I have had this necklace for a couple of years and it still looks new! This necklace has a great budget price point and is a minimal style.

Nordstrom Gold Halo Cubic Zirconia Stud Earrings – These earrings match the necklace above and are also a great budget price point. I bought these earrings the same time I bought the necklace and wear them several times a week!

Kendra Scott Multi-Strand Gold Bracelet – Since I bought this bracelet a couple of months ago, I have worn it several times a week! I love the simple, minimal style of this bracelet and it is also lightweight.

Caslon Open Front Long Cardigan in the “gray heather” color (size Medium) – I bought this cardigan last year and I’m glad to see Nordstrom brought it back again this year! I had this cardigan in my Winter capsule wardrobe and enjoyed wearing it and will be wearing it again this year.

Marc Fisher Black Ankle Boots (fits true to size, size 9) – This is my favorite pair of black ankle boots and I have had these boots for a couple of years. They are comfortable and look great with so many outfits, whether casual or dressy.
