It’s hot, it’s cold, it’s raining—before we know it it’s going to be freezing. During this month’s weather transition, instead of buying a whole new wardrobe, we plan to stretch the shelf life of our warm-weather favorites with the genius styling tricks from Rodarte’s Spring 2016 runway. Here, the 4 pieces needed to reinvent your summer-y boho dresses and favorite tanks for fall. Trust us, you don’t need a closet full of new clothes to create a fresh look—a little ingenuity goes a long way.
What You Need: Black Lace Tights
Don't be scared to wear dark hosiery with your beloved summer dresses in white crochet, lace and eyelet. As long as the dress veers more folky/bohemian—as opposed to tight and sexy—romantic tights are an unexpected layer that totally work.

What You Need: Long Skinny Neck Scarf
This wardrobe staple is currently everywhere on the streets at NYFW. Look for styles that are super skinny (like menswear ties) and long enough to wear looped around your neck.

What You Need: Metallic Gold Ankle Booties
Going from barely there sandals to dark suede boots can be a dramatic jump. To transition, luxe metallic booties will work with your summer whites now and with fall's all-black outfits later.

What You Need: Romantic Chiffon Blouse
Extend the season of black tank tops and slip dresses with a moody, slightly sheer top. Look for a monochromatic layer with a touch of lace or ruffle detail to emulate this romantic runway trend.
