Not ready to shelve your favorite summer dresses?  Me neither.  Layering is a perfect way to extend the life of your previous season’s tried-and-true pieces, yet still feel like you can brave the changing temps of fall.

Take, for example, the current must-have: the slip dress.  So easy to throw on during the summer months paired with everything from flip-flops to wedge sandals.  However, cover-up with the addition of a slim, crew-neck tee (these two discripters are critical in order to avoid bulk and competing necklines).  Still chilly?  Add a denim jacket, bonus points for extra coziness with the sherpa lining!

Another key to keeping warm as the season changes?  Socks.  I know, the best part of summer is sandals.  But it’s time to face reality and shelve those babies until spring…sniff.  A slip dress looks just as awesome though when worn with booties or sneakers.  Even a slip-on loafer would look cool.  Top with a cozy beanie and you’ve got all of your bases covered.
