A Colorful End to Summer

how to wear a skort outfit idea

Hi friends! How crazy is it to think that this week is the last official week of summer? And while this is my last summery outfit post until next year, I am going out with a bang. Here is to a colorful end of summer and some of my favorite pieces from the season:

A Colorful End to Summer

While the show stopper of this post (and the reason for the post’s title!) is this skort, I wanted to include a few of my most-worn pieces of the summer to mark the end of the season. A denim jacket is a spring and summer staple and I sure did wear this one a lot the past few months. Paired over dresses, tees and everything in between, this was my go-to layer of summer. Another go-to from the summer season were these pearl embellished sandals. I picked them up from Target last spring and still find ways to wear them. See a similar pair here and here. You may remember them from this post when I wore them with my favorite summer jumpsuit.

What better way to finish summer than with a burst of color! I realized after shooting these pictures, the majority of this outfit is old and unavailable. It seems like this always happens towards the end of a season. I have totally put my focus on purchasing fall items! Although many of these pieces are from past seasons, I’m hoping this post can inspire you to find something in your closet that you haven’t worn in ages and to style it a new way before summer comes to a close. This skort is a few seasons old and a piece that I totally forget I owned! This last week of summer serves as the perfect opportunity to wear those summer pieces you haven’t worn yet.

  1. I am so glad that skorts made a comeback because of function and cuteness!! I think adding pops of color all through fall is so fun!! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston

This skort looks so cute on you, and you know I’m over here loving all the colors 🙂 I can’t believe it’s time to switch from summer looks to fall…feels a little sad. I will miss all the brights! Hope you guys had a great weekend!
