From crop tops to dresses, here are 6 ways to wear early fall outfits with all your summer wardrobe staples!

Hey beautiful! It’s almost fall and you’re probably bidding all your summer clothing items goodbye. But don’t do that just yet! There are ways to incorporate your summer tops, skirts and dresses into your fall wardrobe to create gorgeous early fall outfits. If styled well, you can wear even the most summery pieces from your closet like crop tops and LBD’s in the fall by layering them the right way.

I made a list of some early fall outfits and how you can rock them! So, lets check out one by one how you can incorporate these summery pieces into your fall wardrobe.

Ideas for Early Fall Outfits

1. How to Wear Crop Tops in Fall

Fall doesn’t necessarily have to mean dark and warm toned color palettes. You can still don light pastels during this transitional season! Just pair your crop top with an extra long cardigan or a half sleeved jacket, which is one of the top fashion trends for fall this year. Wear the cardigan with the sleeves rolled up if you prefer to. Opt for high-waisted jeans and match your accessories and keep the makeup subtle. This layered outfit is ideal for the very early stages of the fall season.

2. How to Wear Sheer Tops in Fall

Just wear it over a bandeau or bralette. Since the top is pretty see through and thin, go for something warmer on the bottom like skinny jeans or leather pants. Colored leather jackets are something most people tend to stay away from ’cause they can be quite tricky to pull off. But it’s honestly easier than you think! Keep the color palette of the rest of the outfit monochromatic. As a leather jacket in itself is super bold and edgy, make sure the rest of this early fall fashion look is muted and understated.

3. How to Wear a Strapless Dress in Fall

Layered clothing style is the direction to head when it comes to early fall outfits. If you’re going for a strapless dress for fall, try dresses with slightly heavier fabrics like denim or velvet. Pair it with a long contrasting knit cardigan or sweater. Opt for a lipstick that compliments it. Add on a pair of leather tights for extra warmth. You could also give metallic tights a try as they’re one of this season’s hottest trends. To complete this fall fashion outfit, pop on a pair of ankle length boots!

4. How to Wear an LBD in Fall

Pair your LBD with a denim jacket or an embellished or metallic belt over a light wool jacket which is very in this fall! Add a dash of burgundy or similar warm toned hues to your fall look with the help of accessories. Match it to your lip color and opt for some shimmery tones on the eyes and nails. Accessorize with a sling bag and a scarf if needed. You could wear this autumn fashion look for a night out with friends.

5. How to Wear a Skirt in Fall

Layered outfits are perfect for fall! This early fall look can be achieved by pairing your summer skirt with a long sleeved top tucked into it. You could also go for a turtleneck or cropped sweater instead. Knee high socks look really cute with a pair of booties. Wrap a scarf around your neck and finish off the look with muted makeup. This fall style works great for daytime as well as night time.

6. How to Wear a Strappy Top in Fall

Don’t stash away all your pretty strappy tops just because it’s fall! You can wear it underneath an oversized printed cardigan. Prints like plaid, Aztec and houndstooth are great for fall fashion outfits. Wear it with jeans or a skirt and leggings. Add matching booties to accessorize. This is a great casual fall look for travel!
