Turtlenecks in August? Furry sandals in October? Welcome to “swinter,” the newly-minted season that combines summer and winter. So, isn’t that just fall? Not exactly. Fall typically refers to a span of time in which the days get shorter and the temperatures get cooler. “Swinter” is that mysterious fifth season that ricochets between shorts weather and puffer temperatures overnight. Charming, isn’t it?
If you’re looking for fall outfit ideas when the weather is all over the place, stick around. We’ve rounded up 20 street style stars to help you master your between-seasons look and flawlessly transition your wardrobe from summer to fall.
No matter the season, a one-and-done is the easiest thing to put on. A jumpsuit with a straight-across neckline and breezy legs in a playful print retains the look of summer, but a matching knee-length overcoat keeps things firmly in the chillier here and now. Pair with brogues or play with statement sandals in the same color palette, depending on your mood and/or the forecast.
