I like coming up with early autumn outfit ideas for sun-protection just before the seasons shift. The transitional factor allows me to play with the best of both worlds—even though I’m always covered from head to toe! But you see, what I like in a sun-safe, early fall outfit is the combination of raw and polished elements inspired by the drawing changes in weather.
My fall get-up revolves around basics, but if you look closely, the details bring my outfit game a notch up. It centers on a classic pair of jeans with undone hems. To start with, jeans are an absolute wardrobe must-have. And not just for a sun-sensible fashion closet like mine—but for every wardrobe there is. The undone hems on my jeans take inspiration from the summer season: it has a subversive, laidback allure to it. Dressed up with peep-toe heels, it turns into an instantly chic look. It doesn’t hurt that undone hems are trending among denims lately! I wore that with a crispy, white shirt—yet another wardrobe essential!
Around my waist is a Chanel silver waist bag with a pendant emblematic of the designer brand. This has got to be one of my favorite bags of all time. My inner nerd is showing through with my accessory choices! The refined, stylish look of this waist bag, combined with the irresistible hands-free practicality, is a total win. It also has more room than you think. I’m not kidding when I say that I can fit all my essentials in this purse!
Of course, I finished my outfit with sun-safe summer essentials: a hat and sunglasses.
