STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Learn to Layer

November 10th, 2016 at 2:00am

Fall typically means cool weather, pumpkin spice lattes and thick sweaters. This year has been unusually warm, making it hard to dress comfortably! I want to wear my favorite sweaters and cardigans without sweating on my way to class. However, short sleeve shirts leave me freezing in the evenings. This is why layering clothes was invented.

This Fashionsta has layering all figured out. This outfit is perfect for warmer fall days when you don’t know what to wear. Although she’s wearing a cardigan, this piece is perfect for cool evenings when it’s not cold enough for a jacket. She can take it off during the daytime and wear this strappy olive top.

A good pair of jeans is a complete necessity for fall. They go with everything. I love her pair of girlfriend jeans from Express. Their jeans last forever and come in all different sizes and lengths. This is great for people like me because I always have to order my jeans online in long. In her case, she’s short, so she can buy jeans without having to get them altered.

Her tan lace-up booties are a fall staple from ALDO. They can be formal with a dress or casual with jeans. This Fashionista paired them with her outfit that would be perfect for a date or going out on the weekend. ALDO’s shoes are made well and are priced reasonably. After seeing these, it definitely makes me want to go look for a pair.

This leather handbag from Fossil is the icing on the cake to complete her outfit. I love the neutral color-blocking, which makes it stand out without being overwhelming. Fossil makes high-quality leather purses that can last for years if they are taken care of.

Don’t worry about opening your closet and thinking you have nothing to wear during this fall. Layering is key to surviving this season while being stylish and comfortable!
