4 Summer-to-Fall Staples for Under $100

Just because summer is coming to an end, doesn’t mean you can't utilize your favorite pieces for fall. Many items hanging in your closet can easily transition from summer to fall with the right touches and additions! Here are four outfit ideas:

1.) Cotton Trouser Shorts (J-Crew, $65.00): Think shorts are strictly for summer? Think again! These comfortable bottoms are a chic alternative to skirts. When paired with tights, a blazer, and heels, you will look instantly polished.

2.) A Flowy Floral Dress (Mango, $44.99): It’s nice to have an outfit you can always fall back on when it’s too hot to even think about weari
ng anything but a bikini. A cotton floral print dress with sandals is an effortless way to look pulled together, while staying cool. Throw on a pair of black or colored tights, a cardigan, and flats and you’re good to go!

3.) Strappy Platform Wedges (Steve Madden, $89.95): Sure, it’s that time again when knee-high boots are being displayed in store windows, but you don’t have to retire your sexy open-toe wedges just yet. Believe it or not, the cardinal fashion rule of not to wear tights with sandals is a thing of the past. Pairing platform wedges with shorts, skirts, or dresses gives your look instant sex appeal.

4.) A Lightweight Cardigan (LC Lauren Conrad, $34.99): A lightweight cardigan in black, brown, or beige is essential for the fall. Worn of a dress or paired with jeans and a t-shirt is the perfect way to pull off a laid-back look.
