So Long Summer

Yes, it's almost that time to wave goodbye to summer and welcome the Fall Fashion.

This is the time of year that pairing fabrics and colors can be challenging.  It's still warm enough for linen blends and light colors, but when you put them on together, it just doesn't quite feel seasonally appropriate.

Pick one or the other.  If you're wearing a light fabric, choose a darker or richer color.  If you're wearing a light color, keep the fabric choice on the heavier side.

For example, this linen blend blazer by Vince in this rust color is perfect for day or evening.  Because of the fabric, you'll still be able to stay cool but the color is better fit for the end-of-summer August fashion.

1 Blazer: 2 Looks

Item Spotlight: Tailored Chambray Blazer

I love the look of a well tailored blazer that can be worn multiple ways and this chambray blazer from Banana Republic offers that! Not to mention, at a great price point of $198.00 (retail price).

I styled this look for a dinner date (with the red chinos) and a summer wedding (with the navy pants). If you're like my client and would rather not go for a very formal look for these summer temperatures, you should try these ideas.
