Autumn, with its unpredictable weather, can be a style conundrum. The frustration of carrying a trench coat or leather jacket in the morning, only to swelter in the afternoon sun, is all too familiar. Despite checking the weather forecast diligently, it often feels like a guessing game where the odds of being wrong are close to 90 percent.
To tackle this fashion challenge head-on, we’ve decided to take a radical approach: preparing a collection of outfits suitable for the transitional period. We drew inspiration from fashion blogger and personal stylist Lydia Tomlinson, who has expertly curated 11 looks to conquer various weather conditions.
As long as the weather allows us to savor moments of sunshine and warmth (and rest assured, there will be such days), we can embrace a range of outfits. For instance, a midi skirt paired with a T-shirt or jeans matched with a simple tee and jacket is a great choice. To stay cozy in the evening, swap ballet flats for loafers or sneakers. There are even more styling possibilities: opt for jeans and a white top, such as a T-shirt or a shirt, and layer with a casually draped jumper or a classic sweater. If you haven’t already incorporated sunglasses into your ensemble, consider this stylish accessory that can transform your entire look.
For a touch of elegance, try a leather midi skirt with a gray T-shirt and a matching sweatshirt. If the weather turns cooler, layer up with an additional insulating piece. Alternatively, start your day with a jacket, but mix it with tailored suit trousers for a fashion-forward twist. Experiment with chic white trousers featuring pleats and pair them with a neutral-toned shirt and a vest. The possibilities are endless.
Don’t hesitate to play with the classics, such as denim-on-denim or an all-beige ensemble. Your choice of outerwear can vary, as a neutral base will adapt seamlessly to your preferred style. With these outfit ideas, you can effortlessly create 2-3 new looks, ensuring that you’re well-prepared for the ever-changing autumn weather.
Say goodbye to fashion dilemmas brought on by fickle fall weather. These versatile outfits will keep you comfortable and stylish throughout the transition period, allowing you to conquer whatever Mother Nature throws your way.
