TIPS & TRICKS: Making the Transition

If there's one thing, and we mean one thing, dear readers, that we can all be certain with about dear, old Macau, it's the fact that discussing the weather here is not small talk, it's gospel. One minute we're basking under generous amounts of sunshine, next thing we know it's raining so hard that we're considering staying in.

If our suspicions come true, and they have before, then Autumn is just going to happen one day, and it may or may not last, so we'll be expecting a cool breeze one day, humid heat the next day, then almost wintry cold after that, all within a week. Better to prep out your transition outfits now, and fast.

Good thing there's more than one way to ensure you won't freeze or else melt when summer starts being fall, and we've just got the list for you!

So without further ado, fashionistas, here are three looks to nail transition weather dressing:


1.) Knot your Cover-up on Your Waist

There's a reason this 90's-era trend never fades. It's one of the most surefire ways to add that instant cool-girl effect to almost any outfit, and with almost any cover-up - blazer, sweater, thin jacket, even a coat if you're feeling particularly adventurous. 

For the classic look though, you could never go wrong with the denim jacket or flannel shirt. You'll always be ready for sudden chills anytime of day.

2.) Work with Thinner Layers 

Here's a style tip for you, fashionistas: you can layer in summer. The key is to focus on thinner pieces like the long vest below. Thin outerwear are great because once winter kicks in, you'd still be able to wear them under the thicker coats and jackets. Opt for materials like cotton and chiffon.

Tip: Layering is also best done if you play with proportions.

3.) Invest in a Statement Scarf 

Preferably, one that can double as a bag accessory, or triple as a head wrap. A scarf can be so many things, and many a chic female knows that, which is why they always have one in their bags. Use it to brush back your hair from your face as a headband, or artfully twist it around your neck and knot it to replace a necklace.


Tip: Wear it best belted on top of a jacket. Or if it gets too hot to handle, use it as an accessory for your favorite handbag.
