Fortunately for those of us in the south, the 60 degree days of sunshine are still hanging on despite being a week away from December. Take advantage of this beautiful weather and get some use out of your cotton dresses while you still can. Style up the otherwise casual summer dress with some booties and make it seasonally appropriate like this Fashionista did. This warm fall weather give us the ability to wear a little less clothing and expose a little more skin; but don't stock up on TOO many warm weather frocks since frosty mornings are right around the corner. Casual cotton dresses like this can be found at most department stores and other retail stores at a reasonable price, and by wrapping it up with a belt and a fabulous pair of kicks, you will up the glam factor and impress even the most fashionable.

Belts can transform an entire outfit from blah to bold by adding shape, and drawing attention to your best features. When choosing a belt, keep in mind the color of your boots so your outfit does not just look like random pieces thrown together. I particularly love this nude color that ties into the ankle boots which can transition into seasons perfectly. Ankle boots are ideal for Fashionistas who do not want to make too loud of a statement with riding boots or over the knee boots. These have a very casual feel and can be easily worn with a pair of skinnies, skirt, or dress.

As always, when sticking with neutral colors for your main pieces, add some color with a bold necklace or other accessory. This necklace doesn't take away from the simplicity of the outfit, but adds a lot to the overall appearance. When it's a little cooler outside, add a pair of opaque tights and a long cardigan for the perfect fall go-to outfit.I love how this Fashionista appears so confident in her outfit and by choosing pieces that go together and make you look put together like this, you will be owning the campus sidewalks as well!
