Layering …
Some Staples I’d recommend
A few newsletters ago I talked about layering and things I look for. Fabrics to keep in mind when mixing and layering. Necklines, hems, etc.
Now I’d like to suggest a few key items I think are really helpful for layering in the Fall and Winter.
~ Silky Camisoles ~
This is great for layering under sweaters. In case the tank shows, it’s a cute one, not that top you wear to the gym, but it’s all faded and gross (btw - throw that away anyway). The tank will give you some added warmth too. The silky material keeps the sweater from clinging to the regular tank top you might wear, and it also helps keep the sweater from clinging to your body or bra.

~ Thin Long Sleeve Shirts ~
Possibly with fun cuff details or even an all over lace shirt
The all over lace is a fun one. When the sleeve pokes out from under your blazer, or sweater, it adds such a fun feminine touch! If you don’t have that, just any thin layering long sleeve tops will do the trick. Personally, I have long arms, so having a little longer sleeve is helpful for me when layering. And I really think it just looks so cute! Whether it’s just a solid shirt, lace, or a fun cuff detail, I think it all adds to the layering effect.

~ Shorts/Skirts/Skirt Slips for the Dresses ~
All the fun dresses you have! I’m sure some of them require a little layer. They might be a little sheer or a little short. So you’ll wanna have something underneath. I like to keep a good mix of skirt slips and short shorts to layer under these dresses. Sometimes the slip looks better, sometimes the shorts. I also have a couple mini skirts I just wear under some chunky sweater dresses. Or any dresses that are an oversized fit. They are fine when I’m standing or sitting, but when I raise my arms, or bend too far over, it’s a little risky haha. So the skirt just helps keep that length of the dress when I’m moving around.

Hope this helps with layering! Please feel free to ask any questions and I’ll see you all next week!
