Summer into Fall

The great part about Fall is that you can master the art of layering summer pieces into your new wardrobe.  First off, try a long sleeved floral short dress with dark colored accents in the print.  It is already a good transition piece with the darker hued color combos.  Next, layer on a drape-waterfall knit vest, preferably in a dark color (brown, black, charcoal) and layer a faux fur vest on top of that to add dimension.  Make sure the fur is a plain print, it will complement the floral prints as well.  Top it off with sheer black tights (no patterns!), rugged booties to spice it  up, and copper-toned jewelry to stick with the vintage feel.  Below is my take on the perfect summer-to-fall look!
