Closet Raid: That Was Then, This Is Now

I always find it tricky getting dressed this time of year.  For instance, it’s been consistently 60 degrees for the past week, but yesterday the temperature shot up to 85.  While it seems like many of my fellow fashionistas in the blogosphere have tucked away their summer wardrobes weeks ago, I’m still not quite ready to let it all go. Below are a few pieces that I’m still keeping in rotation.  They’ve just been perked up a bit for fall.

This Banana Republic skirt kept me cool as a cucumber when I paired it with a white embellished tank.  I think it looks equally crisp and seasonally appropriate when worn with a vintage plaid boy’s shirt and peep toe booties.

Tribal prints were all the rage this summer, but this Forever 21 mini skirt still holds its own as the temperatures dip.  Just throw on black tights, a black stretchy turtleneck and black suede ankle boots.

Who says sundresses  shouldn’t see the light of day once fall hits? Not I! After shrugging into a cardigan and stepping into some calf-length boots, this Forever 21 dress keeps me strutting well into the next season.

When worn on its own with gladiator sandals this wrap dress from Banana Republic is perfect for a sultry summer evening. Presto-chango! The look is transformed with a vintage ski bunny sweater and rugged tan leather boots.

I’ll admit, this H&M dress did make me feel like a goddess when paired with gold shoes and accessories. But I’ll feel even more diva-fied as the temperatures drop with my zebra print scarf, velvet blazer and patent leather maryjanes.

P.S. Don’t forget to check out my vintage necklace giveaway! One lucky winner will be announced next Friday.
