Wondering where to start when you're layering a fall outfit? Art in the Find has 3 style savvy tips for you to try. Click over to read more!

  • BASE LAYER:  Determining what new fall outfit pieces you'll need starts with a quick peek into your closet.  Do you have a silk top, a cotton button down, something with a collar and long sleeves?  Are they in good condition or do you need a few new ones?  If you're looking to invest in a few new tops, starting with one in a plain color (white, black, or blue) and one in a patterned style (stripes are so so classic) is a good rule of thumb.

  • MIDDLE LAYER:  Sweaters are a natural choice for a fall outfit pairing.  Layer a sweater over a long sleeve top.  For maximum style impact, roll the sleeve of the top over the sweater so a bit of the cuff pops out.  One great color rule for layering (especially when you want to mix and match patterns like a style pro!) make sure your bottom layer top and your middle layer sweater have at least one color similarity.  This will help the outfit blend seamlessly together!

  • TOP LAYER:  We all have experienced that transitional weather month where it's not quite cold enough for a big jacket but not quite warm enough to go without a top layer.  One brilliant idea for a great layered fall outfit is a pairing your top layer with a capelet or cape coat.  Cape coats were a huge hit last fall and it's no doubt we'll be seeing them again this season.  Cape coats are an effortless addition to your fall outfit without the heavy burden of a big jacket.

With those 3 layered steps, you'll have a complete fall outfit in no time!  I hope that helps give you a bit of inspiration and knowledge to try layering yourself.  Pop over to my series, Ways to Wear to give more inspiration to your closet!  What's your go-to secret for layering in the fall?  I'd love to know!!
