In anticipation of the return of hot drinks and cozy sweaters, fall can be a bittersweet time of year when you must part with your summer dresses. But it doesn’t have to be that way. This in-between weather is an exciting time to give your dresses a whole new life, and LAYERING is the key to bringing a ray of summer sunshine into your fall wardrobe. 

We’ve assembled five fall looks for your summer must-haves to retire a little later this year. From mini to maxi, wrap to button down, there’s a dress here for just about everyone. Check out our galleries below for inspiration on how to style them.

Minidress

Pair your favourite mini dress with tall boots, and layer it over a cosy turtleneck. Throw on a tartan blazer to finish the look!

Slip Dress

We love a floral summer slip dress. Try layering it with a colourful knit sweater, and pair it with a Chelsea boot to keep you warm during the cooler months.
