Before going out shopping for fall clothes, take a look at what is already in your closet. You may be surprised at how many of your summer pieces can be  layered together for the perfect fall outfit.

That light summer sweater you have? Pair it with your favorite button down and fashion scarf. Your boyfriend jeans? Wear those with motorcycle boots, your favorite summer tee and a leather jacket. A beautiful summer dress? Add a blazer, tights and riding boots! The colder it gets, the more articles of clothing you can add, which means more opportunities to show off your style. When it gets colder outside, you can go crazy with a button down, sweater, leather jacket scarf.

The options are endless in creating your own personal style. Being fashionable and on trend is not as important as being stylish, and being stylish can be much cheaper! Although there may be some pieces you’ll need to buyto pull together an outfit or spike your creativity, working with what you already have can be just as fun. Use #KernelsofKampus to show us your fall style!
