Barbara & Karen tackle the tricky business of dressing for the transition season between summer and fall in Virtual Styling #284. An elevated casual style is the perfect solution—it’s polished yet effortless, striking the balance between comfort and sophistication.
Elevated casual style during this transition is about thoughtful details that upgrade simple silhouettes. Swapping sneakers for structured flats or a heeled bootie, choosing trousers over jeans, or adding a statement belt can instantly refine your look.
Elevated casual dressing thrives on adaptable pieces, which give you the freedom to adjust your outfit without sacrificing style. Habitat, APNY, Ethyl and Beau Jours excel at giving us fabulous versatile pieces that go from super casual to the office in the blink of an eye and the change of your accessories.
