  • Trends we heart: Americana
There’s no need to let go of your cute summer staples when the calendar flips to September. Here are three ways to mix up your sunny day basics for fabulous fall outfits.

Keep you tanks handy
Cute tanks make perfect layering pieces. Tuck one into a high-waisted skirt, add tights, a cardi and a perf pair of boots for an excellent ensemble to rock in chilly weather.

Autumn-ize your denim
No need to pack away your cut-offs: Wear ’em until winter by pairing them with cold-weather tights. Pop on a pair of moc boots and trot off to school.
 
 
Solid Tights, $13, delias.com
 
Romper Riddle 
Nothing says summer like a cute one-piece, but why should we pack it away when school starts? Make your romper work for fall by adding a sharp blazer, chic tights and a pretty scarf.

I love clothes from urbanoutfitters. I have so many clothes sometimes I get confused on what to wear.

i would love to wear this stuff but there is one problem..... all the skirts and shorts they show are to short for my school. they have a strict dress code and are allways busting people. we have to have a four inch seam line for it to be okay. AND THE PRINCIPLE HAS A YARDSTICK TO MEASURE IT! she is crazy! Lauren C.

Play up your frock. Instead of pairing flats or pumps with that summer dress, try adding some edgy boots or sporty sneakers.
