Time to prep your wardrobe for transitional weather.
“To effortlessly transition your wardrobe, choose items you can mix with summer and fall essentials. Think length, layers and neutrals.”
- Susannah, Style Expert
If you haven’t gotten your fill of summer yet, don’t fret! There’s still plenty of time to bask in the sun before temperatures start to drop. Even so, that doesn’t mean you can’t start prepping your closet with classics you can enjoy now and into the new season.

Cream de la Crème: The Midi Skirt
Cream is the perfect transitional hue, bridging the gap between crisp summer whites and rich autumn browns. A lightly coloured denim skirt is the kind of essential that works just as well with tees as it does with silky smooth blouses. Not to mention, the longline silhouette pairs seamlessly with mules and ankle boots alike.

Animal Instinct: The Ruffled Blouse
Get ready to pounce on a leopard print top with fiercely feminine ruffles. Though an animal motif may be considered more daring, a neutral colour palette can tame even the wildest motifs, making it easy to wear and pair with your existing wardrobe.

Get Width It: The Cargo Jeans
Jeans are always in style, no matter the season. Utilitarian-inspired patch pockets and a wide-leg silhouette are exactly what you need to achieve everyday excellence, whether you pair your denim with a tank top or knit sweater.

Transitional Topper: The Bomber Jacket
The best part about transitional layers is that they’re perfect for cool temperatures and don't cover your entire outfit. A bomber jacket, featuring a cropped silhouette, looks flawless with high-waisted pants and jeans. Meanwhile, warm and neutral colours reminiscent of a creamy latte, offer the versatility needed from a pair-with-anything staple.

Paisley Perfection: The Trans-Seasonal Dress
Dresses you can layer with lightweight cardigans or jackets and pair with sling-backs or boots, are essential to any transitional wardrobe. Paisley prints and deep hues, such as aubergine, will add richness to your wardrobe and everyday look.
