Autumn’s knocking, and it’s time to give your wardrobe a seasonal glow-up! Here’s how to make the switch from summer sizzle to autumn chill in style. Remember to get your products from Bash.com for a smooth transition.
1. LAYER LIKE A PRO
Think of layering like making a fashion sandwich: start with a lightweight tee as a base, add a cardigan, and finish with a jacket. The secret lies in mixing textures and proportions: try pairing a silky camisole under a chunky knit, or a fitted turtleneck under an oversized blazer. Remember, each layer should work both solo and as part of your ensemble.

2. UPDATE YOUR SHOES
As temperatures dip, it’s time to bid farewell to your beloved sandals and flip-flops. Enter versatile footwear that bridges the summer-autumn gap. White sneakers offer both comfort and style, while ankle boots with a moderate heel height work overtime as your day-to-night champions.

3. ACCESSORISE LIKE YOU MEAN IT
Nothing says “I’m ready for autumn” like a chunky scarf or a cute pair of gloves, and these items are also an easy win to update your wardrobe staples. (And let’s be honest, scarves are basically stylish blankets you can wear in public.) Experiment with berets and beanies to add character while keeping warm, and don’t underestimate the power of a wide belt to define your silhouette.

4. CHECK YOUR TONE
As nature’s palette shifts, so should yours. It will probably be instinctual: the desire to replace summer’s brights and florals with cooler, darker colours like charcoal, grey and dark red. Dressing head-to-toe in tones of rich chocolate and chestnut brown is also a good look. Don’t forget to incorporate texture – a monochrome outfit in varying materials adds depth and interest.
5. INVEST IN A TRANSITIONAL JACKET
A well-chosen transitional jacket works double duty: it keeps you comfortable through temperature swings while adding polish to any outfit. A good lightweight jacket, like a trench coat or denim jacket can be layered over summer clothes while still looking seasonally appropriate. The perfect transitional jacket should be light enough to layer but substantial enough to stand alone as a statement piece.

@done_menezes_gous 4 WAYS TO STYLE A TRENCH COAT 🤎 Another staple piece that’s so great as a transitional piece because you can really layer during autumn/winter or wear it as a light jacket in spring! This one I bought a few years ago at @cottonon_africa but they currently have a stunning one in stock!
