Summer to Fall #Fashion Transition

Just because Fall is around the corner, that doesn't mean that you have to pack away your girly bohemian tank tops and accessories!

Summer to Fall Fashion 2014 by sweetstellas featuring shirts & tops

I love this cobalt blue lace tank for both summer and fall. It's a great pop of color and is a really versatile piece as well!

For summer, pair it with dark washed bermuda shorts, a funky fedora, and tstrap sandals.

For fall, boyfriend jeans, a 3/4 sleeve blazer, nude pumps and a clutch in a bold color such as mustard, emerald or orange.

Both outfits are great for a night out with your girlfriends, dinner on a patio somewhere or a date night with your spouse!

What is one piece from your summer wardrobe that will follow you through the fall?

So it's only natural to think that cut out tops will be at front in centre of clothing store merchandising. Here are a few styles that you can expect to see.

Cutout Tops for Summer by sweetstellas featuring flat tops

If you have abs, it's a great season to show them off. Crop lops with side, centre and back cut outs paired with high waisted, voluminous circle skirt, or a pair of crop pants and heeled sandals.

The two longer tops, the black and orange options, are great if you are a little more body conscious. They bring the emphasis and eye to the neckline, and would be great paired with crop pants or even jeans.

Who's brave enough to try this trend this summer??

One Dress, Two Seasons #fashion

Take one $80 dress and make it work in two seasons. That is the challenge that I set out for myself on my editorial calendar, and I think I made it work in two very beautiful ways!

Spring to Summer Fashion 2014 by sweetstellas featuring summery dresses

On the left we have our Spring look. A beautiful nude dress with a sash detail paired with a short cinched arm structured bolero cardigan, patterned charcoal polka dot tights, and suede pumps. Add in a berry toned clutch and you have a beautiful outfit for a networking event, or even a date night!

Take that same dress, and lighten up the accessories and you have a perfectly balanced outfit for a summer wedding, brunch, baby or bridal shower...really so many events.

If you have a great base piece, like the nude dress above, there is alot that you can do with it to make it last throughout the seasons. This piece could even stretch through the fall with thicker tights, booties and a jacket!

Favorite Flat Sandals for Spring 2014 #fashion

These days, my tired feet are in love with ballet flats and flat spring sandals. Here are my top picks for flat sandals for Spring 2014

Favorite Spring Flats for 2014 by sweetstellas featuring fuschia flats

If I had to chose just one pair to add to my collection, it would be the black Nine West t strap sandals on the top left. At $32, they are a great pair of spring sandals that aren't going to break the bank, are fashion forward since they are super structured, and have the gladiator flare.

If I could splurge on a pair, it would definitely be the purple Tory Burch slides, bottom left. They just look so darn comfortable and I love the T medallion looking detail on the top.

Are you a slide or T strap fan? Have a big collection of gladiator sandals? {I own 4 pairs...and am always looking for new ones!}

What are your go-to Spring sandals?
