Fall Statement Pieces

The summer at Ithaca has always been too short to play around with your entire summer wardrobe. As the temperature drops days, you can easily sense the panic spreading between the fashionistas — we haven’t had enough fun with our summer styles yet! No worries! You can still start the fall while keeping your summer wardrobe: Just add one fall piece to keep you warm and chic. You can rock through the transition season by introducing one statement fall piece to your outfits, which can be easily styled with other basic summer clothes. Always keep in mind that less is more.

LET THE SKINNY SCARF SHINE

The skinny scarf has been on trend since 2015, however, with the summer temperature getting extreme, the heat always stops us from trying this sharp item. Now is the right time to add a layer to your outfit and change your simple attire.

BOMBER JACKET

The bomber jacket fits with almost everything, whether you pair it with an elegant dress, or with a pair of leggings to create sporty look. And don’t forget, it’s a jacket. Always feel free to style it to help you stay warm on the brisk mornings.

WIDE-LEG TROUSERS

Just like the Mom Jean, the wide leg trouser is an item that satisfies both warmth and comfort. As college students, who doesn’t like to run to the morning class with a pair of pajama-like, wide-leg trousers? At the same time, this item stays classic and effortless.

COMBINATION OF SUMMER AND WINTER CLOTHES (A Sweater or sweatshirt + Skirt combination)

It is a privilege during transition seasons to make the collision of clothes from two different seasons possible. An Ithaca College sweatshirt with a button-down A-line skirt is a perfect example to start with. Just be creative.
