As the warm summer months transition slowly into colder weather, yogis aren’t quite ready to retire their favorite pieces of yoga athleisure apparel just yet. One of the most popular choices, yoga Capri leggings, can easily transition with you into the chillier air and changing colors. Instead of unpacking your fleece-lined leggings and heavy coats, what can you do to make the most of your summer attire for the fall?
- Add Fun Leg Warmers
There isn’t much that could be easier than transitioning your yoga Capri leggings into pants by adding a fun pair of leg warmers. It gives you the additional fabric and warmth you need as temperatures drop while still allowing you to wear your capris. These can come in varying thicknesses, allowing you to adjust accordingly well into the season. Leg warmers are an easy transitional item because they are easily removed as the afternoon warms up.
Not only that; leg warmers can spruce up your wardrobe with some fall colors. Consider opting for rustic oranges and earthy greens that match the changing leaf colors as autumn approaches.
- Choose Boots Over Sandals
Summer heat can make the idea of donning close-toed shoes unbearable, but fall is the perfect time to bring these items back out. Knee-high boots can cover the expanse of skin left exposed by your Capri leggings, insulating you on a colder morning. Capri pants are ideal for boots because the tight fabric tucks easily into the top of the shoe.
If it’s still cold or you’re torn between leg warmers and boots, add a cute pair of boot cuffs. It allows you to add a little bit of knit warmth, as well as a splash of color to match the season change. It is another piece that can easily be removed come afternoon if the weather renders them unnecessary.
- Find A Light Sweater
Just because you’re wearing capris doesn’t mean that you can’t add a sweater to cover your top half. For yogis who find their chest and arms chillier throughout the day, you may want to start hunting for a light sweater. Thin cable-knit sweaters in light colors pair beautifully with super soft black yoga Capri leggings. Alternatively, you could choose an oversized sweatshirt with a fun pattern or graphic on it.
Keep in mind that you may want to remove this sweater as afternoon arrives. It can be hard to predict what the heat will feel like on a given afternoon, so wear a lighter top underneath. Make good use of your summer clothes underneath your light jacket for when the weather allows. This simple piece can help you to get even more wear out of your summer athleisure clothing.
Dressing for fall can present a unique challenge if you aren’t quite ready to retire your Capri leggings. However, yogis can find plenty of creative ways to wear their cooler workout clothing even as the seasons change. As summer moves into fall, consider finding one of these solutions to extend your favorite piece of clothing a little further into the year.
