Black white and grey
Three easy colours to help us move from summer to cooler weather
Soon it won’t be summer anymore
The days are already closing in
The mornings are darker
The evenings shorter
You might be tempted to jump straight into winter wear
but that is a mistake
Autumn/Fall comes before Winter
It is a season in its own right
but we sometimes overlook this fact
You need clothes that will comfortably stretch over the seasons and take you from the tail end of summer
to the depths of winter
What should you look for in clothes that will do this for you
Three ways to wear clothes that transition into fall/autumn
First find easy to wear fabrics that are comfortable to sit in
whether at home or in the office
Then find styles that can be dressed up or down
dresses which you can get up in and start work at home in the morning
but still wear later on in the day to see clients or go to a meeting
Thirdly search out dresses in perfect “building blocks” colours like
Black White Grey and
use them as the basis for your wardrobe
to create timeless but modern outfits personal to you
I love colour and it has a great part to play in your wardrobe
but for transitioning out of summer into fall/autumn
pick a neutral colour and accessorise it
I just chose black white grey
but you could equally choose another neutral colour
Black white and grey make a good transition from late summer into fall/autumn
and beyond into winter
If you start now with a winter white dress
you can wear it with sandals
and a light jacket or cardigan
and look great right through September
In October you can start to wear the same dress with darker colours and shoes
At Christmas you can wear it to a Christmas lunch
with nude tights, gold jewellery, high heels and a great bag
We have created a beautiful winter white dress for fall/autumn see below
If winter white is too daring for you
try black or grey
the same method applies
With a bit of know how you can take one dress right through to the end of the year
