How to Layer Up and Down this Season

As Thanksgiving rapidly approaches, summer clothing is quickly dwindling with the change of weather.  However, how can you dress appropriately for Elon’s weather?  I don’t know about you but it seems that every day the weather changes where you wake up to a 50° morning and find that you’re sweating by the rise to 80° by mid afternoon!  Here are some great pieces that can easily fit into anyone’s wardrobe to transition into the fall/winter season for Elon’s weather while also staying stylish.  

Try an oversized blazer.  The boy-cut blazer has been a huge style statement this season.  Whether tailored, knit or tweed a simple blazer can easily fit over any outfit while also keeping you bundled up for the cold weather.  It can easily be worn during the day or night making it a perfect staple piece for the season.  Urban Outfitters, Target and Nordstroms all have a great variety of options in a variety of colors.  I even found some vintage styles at the local Trollinger Treasures for $3!   

Try a leather bomber jacket.  It seems that leather and rough is back in - making the bomber jacket a perfect way to stay warm while staying edgy.  Lots of metal, leather, and pockets are necessary in order to create the look - and make sure to try it on first to make sure it works with your body type, (side zipper, front zipper, double-breasted etc.).
