When Should You Switch to Your Autumn Wardrobe?

The timing depends on your area’s climate, but a good benchmark is when
temperatures consistently drop below 65°F (18°C). Look out for natural signs like crisp
morning air, changing leaves, and that accompanying occasional drizzle—these are
clear indicators that autumn is coming sooner than you think. However, don’t be too
hasty to pack away all of your summertime items, as you will still get a few warm days
before the season’s end.

How to Transition Your Wardrobe from Summer to Autumn

1. Don’t Rush the Transition
Instead of overhauling your entire wardrobe in one go, ease into the seasonal
change. Start by evaluating your current wardrobe, decluttering items you no
longer need, and gradually introducing your autumn items. This slow approach
keeps you prepared for sudden weather changes while still getting the most out
of your summer clothes before it’s time to pack them up.
2. Master the Art of Layering
Layers are key during this seasonal transition. It’s the ideal way to stay warm
while incorporating your favorite summer clothes. You can go for light jackets,
cardigans, and scarves that can be layered over summer tops or dresses, adding
in some warmth without compromising your personal style. Gradually swap in
chunkier knitwear and heavier coats as the days grow cooler.
3. Embrace Autumn Colors
Autumn is known for its rich, earthy tones. For example, deep greens, rusty
oranges, and mustard yellows paired with fabrics like tweed, corduroy, and wool.
Adding these colors and textures to your wardrobe can help capture the season’s
natural beauty while feeling comfortable and stylish.
4. Find the Right Shoes and Accessories
Footwear plays a crucial role going into autumn. Replace those sandals for some
sturdy boots or waterproof shoes that can handle unexpected rain. Accessories
like hats, gloves, and scarves not only add warmth but also serve as stylish
additions that will complete your autumn look.
5. Keep Your Wardrobe Flexible for Warm Days
Autumn weather is notoriously unpredictable, so flexibility is essential. Keep
versatile summer pieces within reach, and don’t hesitate to mix and match them
with your autumn wardrobe. This flexibility helps you adapt to changing weather
conditions while maximizing the use of your existing clothes.

By following these tips, you’ll be well-prepared to face the season’s shifting weather in
style.
