Hi everyone!
As summer is drawing to an end, and fall is making its first appearance, we are starting to put our mini dresses and hot bright summer colors to the back of our closet. But if you’re anything like me, putting away summer bright fun colors is the saddest thing to do for me. So I’m going to share with you how I hold on to a hot pink mini dress for a couple more weeks in these easy 4 steps. You can apply each step alone, or combine multiple steps together, depending on your dress and the weather.
1) Step 1 : Increase your sleeve length
This is a no-brainer. When your arms are cold, add a jacket to increase your sleeve length. It also helps tone down the hot pink. Or you could also wear a sweater over your dress.
2) Step 2: Cover up your legs
If your legs need a little bit of cover up, wear some black tights, or black leggings. You can also switch out those heels and sandals, for some boots! Try a pair of ankle booties, or tall boots.
3) Step 3: Wear a scarf
This is not only a functional, but also a very stylish accessory. Use a neutral color or an earth tone color to tone down your summer hot pink.
4) Step 4: Use your coat!
If it gets even colder and none of these steps could protect you from the chilly breeze, pull out your ultimate weapon! Your coat!
And there you have it! I have showed you 4 ways to transform a summer hot pink mini-dress into a fall outfit. So if you are not ready to part with your lovely hot pink, bright coral, or any other summer colors, but worried you cannot wear them this fall, think again. Just follow my 4 tips and add layers and neutral fall colors, and you’re good to go! 🙂
With love,
Lily Rose

I hate pink, honestly hate the colour with a passion and I think it stemmed from my mum making me wear the colour all the time when I was younger. LOL! I do love the whole dress with tights look, it’s very chic and you look amazing in the outfit.

I love the complete look with the coat on! The dress turns into a lovely miniskirt, and the pop of color that it adds to your outfit is ever so cheery.
