As summer turns into fall, your summery wardrobe turns as well. This is just about the most exciting time of the year for workwear: when you can still wear the flowing dresses, light blouses and flirty skirts, and now with weather-appropriate transitional pieces. Bring on the chunky sweaters, cozy cardis and sleek outerwear! Need ideas? Please scroll down.


1) V Neck Cardigan | $10 - 20
When the temperature drops down, cozy up in a lightweight cardi that goes well with everything.

How to wear it? Topping it over a simple dress will do just fine.
2) Cole Haan Women's Leather Racer Jacket | $170.80 - $399.95
Some style come and go, but not a timeless piece like the classic racer jacket. It's sleek, chic and adds a bit of umph to any outfit. Use this beautifully structured racer to balance a soft floral piece. You'll look both on-trend and put-together.

How to wear it? Layer this tough-looking jacket over a demure floral creates a balanced outfit.
3) Wide Legged Jump Suit | $54.66 - $70.05
Nothing screams "fierce" as much as a jump suit. This figure-flattering one-piece has been blowing up both on the runway and the real way. When paired with an office-appropriate jacket, a jump suit turns from play wear to office wear. If you don't quite know what color of jump suit to get, stick with basic black.

How to wear it? Pair it with a cropped jacket.
4) Faux Fur Vest | $17.99 - $28.99
This luxurious-looking vest is the epitome of fashion meets affordability. Plus, faux fur makes it cruelty free. Layer it over anything and you've just added style, dimension, and warmth to your outfit.

5) Slouchy Scarf | $17.99 - $28.99
Never underestimate the power of a knitted scarf. Not only is it a cold weather essential, it is also the ultimate transition piece that adds comfort and volume to naturally transition summer wear into fall must-have. It also helps that a knitted scarf is warm, soft and comfortable.

How to wear it? A knitted scarf matches everything, especially an outfit that already has layers.
