Romance was summer’s top aesthetic, defined by feminine silhouettes, lace-trimmed pieces, and the slip dress (which reigned supreme). And while we’re not quite ready to pack our summer staples away, we found a way to bring your favorite slip dress into early autumn without it looking out of place. The secret is layering. An oversized button-up adds structure, while a cozy cardigan on top – ideally in a color that ties back to the dress – makes the whole thing feel autumnal. The lace-trim detail still peeks through, keeping that romantic quality intact. Minimal flip flops work for now, but once temperatures dip, swap them for knee-high boots. It’s an easy way to extend the life of your favorite summer dress.
