Your Guide to Adjusting Your Wardrobe from Summer to Fall


Fall foliage in Summers County

As the air turns crisper and the leaves begin to paint the world in warm hues, it's time to embrace the beauty of autumn and adjust your wardrobe accordingly. Transitioning with style from the laid-back days of summer to the cozy and fashionable realm of fall can be both exciting and challenging. But don't worry! With a few simple adjustments, you can effortlessly blend style and comfort, ensuring you're ready to conquer the changing seasons with confidence. Welcome to Otter & Oak's ultimate guide to transitioning your wardrobe from summer to fall!

Embrace Layering

As the temperature fluctuates between the sunlit days and cooler evenings, layering becomes your best friend. Start with lightweight pieces like a versatile camisole or a short-sleeved tee as your base. Layer on a cozy cardigan or a stylish denim jacket. This not only adds dimension to your outfit but also keeps you comfortable throughout the day. Opt for earthy tones such as rust, olive, and mustard to embrace the fall color palette.

Play with Textures

Fall is all about tactile experiences, so incorporate rich textures into your wardrobe. Swap out your lightweight summer fabrics for thicker options like corduroy, knit, and suede. A chunky knit sweater paired with your favorite jeans and ankle boots creates a quintessential fall look that exudes warmth and style.


Swap Sandals for Boots

Bid adieu to your beloved summer sandals and welcome ankle boots and booties into your shoe collection. These footwear options are not only fashionable but also practical for navigating the unpredictable fall weather. Pair them with skirts, dresses, or your go-to jeans for an instant style upgrade.




Invest in Transitional Outerwear

A well-chosen outer layer can make a statement while keeping you cozy. Consider investing in a cozy vest or a lightweight jacket. These pieces work well with both summer and fall outfits, effortlessly transitioning your look as the temperature drops. Don't forget to add a versatile scarf for a pop of color and added warmth.


Earthy Color Palatte

Transitioning to fall calls for a shift in color choices. While summer embraces vibrant shades, fall welcomes earthy tones that mirror the changing landscape. Incorporate warm browns, deep oranges, and forest greens into your outfits. These colors not only align with the season but also add a touch of sophistication to your look.

Accessorize Wisely

Accessories have the power to transform an outfit, so choose them thoughtfully. Opt for statement pieces like a colorful necklace or a leather belt to add intrigue to your ensemble. As the days get shorter, consider swapping your dainty summer jewelry for bolder, cozier pieces that resonate with the season.



This seasonal change is a wonderful opportunity to revamp your wardrobe and experiment with new styles. By embracing layering, incorporating textures, and playing with autumnal colors, you can seamlessly adjust your clothing choices to reflect the changing season. Remember, fashion is about expressing yourself, so have fun mixing and matching your favorite pieces to create looks that make you feel confident and comfortable. With Otter & Oak's fall fashion selections, you're well-equipped to navigate the fashion landscape as you step into fall.

Otter & Oak's Christmas in July Sale signs
Thanks for shopping the sale!

We couldn't help but get into the holiday mood a little early this year with our much-anticipated Christmas in July Sale. We're so glad that you were able to help us celebrate! Thank you for helping us spread holiday cheer by shopping at Otter & Oak during the sale.


At Otter & Oak, we thought that holiday joy shouldn't be limited to one time of year. Five years ago, we came up with the idea of a Christmas in July Sale because we wanted to share the love of the holidays in the summertime too!


This sale is a chance to show our appreciation by offering great deals to our loyal customers. You are what keeps our business going. Your support has been the key to our growth and success. We feel very lucky to be a part of the Hinton community, whether it's the holidays or the middle of summer. We worked hard to make sure that this sale was more than just savings and special offers - we wanted to offer the best products as well as excellent customer service.


During the Christmas in July Sale, we saw how excited and friendly everyone was. We appreciate the posts on social media, the messages of thanks, and the real excitement you showed for the sale and for the other local events happening in Hinton.
