  • Layers, layers, and more layers – if you’ve got a favorite dress that you loved wearing so much over the last season and you’re not ready to part ways with it yet this fall, layering is the key to being able to still wear that dress. Adding layers to your outfit keeps you warm and cozy, it also adds more dimension to the outfit as a whole.

  • Throw on a cute outerwear – a simple but gorgeous coat, jacket, blazer or vest could be the only thing you need to let you wear a dress that is not warm enough for fall. Choose an outerwear that will either create an awesome contrast with your dress or something that blends well with it if you want a cohesive look. This is also good for when you want to  dress up your casual outfit a little bit.

  • Get a long sleeved maxi dress – over the past seasons you may have discovered how flattering maxi dresses are for you and now that it’s fall you’re worried that you’ll have to find another style of dress that will look as good. Well, worry no more. Maxi dresses also come with full long sleeves so they’re perfect for fall.

  • Try sweater dresses – if you’re not sure what to get for fall, try on a few couple of sweater dresses and I’m sure you’ll immediately fall in love with these. Sweater dresses are often made of thick fabric like wool to keep you warm as these are specially made to be worn during fall and winter. Knit sweater dresses are also very pretty and casual. If you want something that says casual all over, try buying oversize sweater dresses about 3 to 4 sizes bigger.
