Warmer temperatures mean airy summer dresses with bare legs, but what do you do when late summer slips into autumn? Here you'll get plenty of inspiration for styling your summer dresses so you can wear them well into the cooler months.

A summer dress is not just a summer dress

A summer dress can be used for more than just the warm summer days. Short and long dresses , as well as models with long or short sleeves, can easily be integrated into your autumn wardrobe. They are available in several colors, patterns and in airy materials, which can be layered to adapt to the weather. Make sure you have a good selection of different summer dresses so you can vary your look as needed.

Summer dresses for busy everyday life and weekend parties

For everyday wear, when the temperature starts to drop, you can still wear your summer dresses in style. Layer a light cardigan or blazer over a short or long summer dress, and pair with tights or leggings for extra warmth. A pair of tall boots or sneakers completes the look, making it both practical and fashionable for everyday activities.

A cute sleeveless summer dress can easily be styled with an oversized denim jacket or a chunky cardigan to protect against the cooler breezes that we feel as we transition into fall.

Late summer parties and gatherings still require beautiful dresses. Wear your summer dresses for a party by combining them with an elegant jacket. Long summer dresses can be styled with a belt at the waist and a pair of high boots, while short ones look amazing with tights and a short jacket.

Remember an extra layer and wear your dresses well into autumn.

Fall doesn't have to mean packing away your summer dresses. Many summer dresses can be worn all year round by adding layers, such as a long-sleeved turtleneck underneath or a warm knit over top. Tights , leggings or a pair of light pants under the dress are a must, and you can complete the look with a pair of long boots and a trendy coat. This way you can extend the use of your summer dresses and hold on to the summer feeling a little longer.
