Transition From Summer To Fall Without Breaking Your Pockets
The time has come where the sun is setting earlier, the morning is cooler than the afternoon, and the wind chill is getting stronger. The UGGs and Timbs start coming out with the layered socks, and our big jackets too!
Just because it’s getting cold doesn’t mean you have to break the bank to achieve the look that you want. Here are a few suggestions for keeping warm while saving money.
Fashion
Chelsea Boots: You can find these at Target for as low as $30. Chelsea boots are a low, ankle boot that you can layer with thick socks and your favorite pair of jeans. They’re a cute alternative to a pair of long boots and run a bit cheaper as well. They also have a pair that are rain boots as well!
Oversized Cardigan: Anything oversized is a yes! Oversized cardigans are an easy layering item. You get one of these and grab a large scarf to go on top, with your boots. Thick cardigans are a good fix for when you don’t want a bulky coat.
Over-the-Knee Boot: A simple over-the-knee boot is always something that can contribute to a simple outfit and make it one-step closer to more “glam” outfits. Most times you can bring an outfit to life for less than $50 for a nice boot. Get these in a black or brown, add a pop of color and you’re set to go!
Fedora: When you have that cold windy day and you’re hair might not doing what it needs to: pop on a cute fedora hat or even beret to pull your look together. You can still rock your bun or all down and tucked behind your ears.
Skincare
When it comes to your skin, you should be mindful of the way it changes during the seasons. Keeping your skin moisturized and glowing is the key. There are plenty of items you can use to keep your skin from looking dry.
Facial Spray: Buying toners and facial sprays are a good start in any day and night routine. A spray like the Mario Badescu Rosewater spray helps keep your skin nourished with aloe and herbs to hydrate the skin. You can get a travel size for $7 at Ulta!
Moisturizers to Creams: Switching from a moisturizer to a cream for the Fall is a definite must-do, everyday kind of thing. Creams are thicker in consistency and something like the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream has hyaluronic acid in it. It helps the dry skin cells act as a sponge and keep the skin super moisturized.
Facial Brush Cleaner: In the colder months, if you use your hands to clean your face, you won’t be able to get deep in the crevices. A facial cleansing brush gives you the variety of having multiple brushes for various needs. One you can use more often to get the dry skin off is an exfoliating brush head that helps break up skin cells that might be hardened by the day’s air.
Lip Moisturizer: Last, but not least, always keep thy lips moisturized! No one likes dry, chapped lips. Especially when it’s cold outside and you can feel the dry skin hanging off! Pick up this inexpensive find today!
The Fall time is a wonderful time to do a lot of things. One of the most important is to stay warm and stay moisturized!
