A Summer wardrobe that can ease into Fall

White Cargo Trousers for $88 at Anthropologie.com

Sweating out what to wear or how to update your closet then make it last into fall without going broke.

Easy. Just pick one item then use it as a cornerstone for your new wardrobe, as in Level 99 White Cargo Trousers at Anthropologie. At a reasonable, double-digit price of $89, you can easily build a new look from that.

These cargos are prepared to battle the humidity and Summer rain storms.

You can have the option of leaving the hems hanging down, so you can pair them with slingbacks for all those Summer White parties.

When the thunderstorms burst open, there is a tab that holds those rolled up hems while you splash through the puddles without ruining them.

How chic! How practical!

What and how to build upon a pair of cargo jeans?

Don’t worry about wearing something heavy, thick, and bulky. Let start off light.

As in an easy Corset Tank from Foley and Corrina then topping it off with their Victorian Ruffle Scarf.

If all that layering sounds too fussy, give their Beaded Tank a try.

If you want that instant Dandyism for a night out or a funky and fun daylight look, slip on Foley and Corrina’s Ribbon Tank with white ribbon bib then pair it with their Drape Ruffle Vest.

A couple of months later, when early Fall sends its evening chills but the days are still warm, their Sweater Tank keeps you light when it is sunny but cozy when it is dark.

See.

You can start building your autumn closet at the start of summer. By doing this, you can really stretch your clothing budget a long, long way when you pick one garment then go from there.
