Two weeks ago I styled this bright skirt for a summer work look. Given this week's beautiful fall forecast, I wanted to show you how to transition a summer skirt into fall using of this gorgeous skirt. There are two keys to transitioning your summer skirt: layering & colours.

The key to make a summer look more fall appropriate is to add layers. Somehow wearing just one warmer layer (a long sleeve shirt for example) doesn't produce the same effect. A sleeveless top with a jacket overneath, add layer and depth in just the right way.

The second factor to keep in mind is colour. In the summer I pair this skirt with white or light blue. For fall, you want to reach for darker hues in complimentary colours. This dark blue denim jacket is just that. I also move to black instead of white as a base in the fall.

I hope you are all having a great, productive (and bright!) start to the work week.
