I typically hate wearing tights....Aaaccck!!....and would prefer going out all bare legged...but the goosebumps I got the other day just weren't cutting it. (And these tights aren't that bad). You would think that being a dancer would make me ok with wearing tights...but that's just never going to happen.
I took a summer dress (that I actually never wore this summer..hmm...) and turned it into a cooler weather outfit by adding all these fun fall/winter accessories to it.
Have you transitioned any of your summer wardrobe pieces into fall outfits?
PS. I hope you'll link up with me this Friday for November's Favorite Things!
Linking up with Shanna and The Pleated Poppy.

I love this look! I'm always layering my summer dresses and accessorising them for autumn. Although we seem to have headed straight to winter!
You look SO cute! Love this look, and those ankle boots are awesome :)

So cute! I love changing up summer pieces!!!
I love how you paired the dress with a cardi. I am going to try that out! LOVE those boots!
Love these photos! You look just darling. The touch of red just pops so perfectly!
I love trying to pull the summer wardrobe into fall! Have you tired DKNY tights?? They are absolutely amazing!!!

I wouldn't even know this was a summer dress because of the way you styled it. It looks great!

Gorgeous photos Ashley! Super cute outfit. :) Before this year I never really transitioned summer outfits to fall. But now I just add turtleneck/long sleeve tee, leggings, boot socks, and riding boots and I'm good to go. Thanks for stopping by! :)

Super cute!!! It's amazing what you can do with just a cardigan! Anything can be turned into a Fall/Winter piece. Love this!

LOVE this! I like the pop of red and the booties:)
I am all about transitioning summer pieces to winter and fall. We for have much cold weather here so the majority I my wardrobe is for the warmer months which makes transitioning a necessity.
I love your scarf and boots! So cute and they look so gret with your dress :)
that's adorable! and I LOVE your shoes!
I absolutely ADORE this outfit, from the scarf to the boots.

You look fantastic! I'm so glad I found your blog and the Wednesday linkup! Definitely following, I look forward to more posts Ashley :)
I am the same way about tights - I'd much rather have bare legs, but I do love the look of them (and warmth, definitely). I love every single thing about this outfit!!!
So cute!!! I love the pop of red from that adorable cowl. And call me crazy, but I love tights! Maybe it's because my legs are practically blinding so it's nice to have something to cover them up ;)
I die for that scarf... I have a couple of infinity scarves, but not a bright one. It's on my list! And I'm with you... I can't handle my legs being cold, for real. Love this outfit!
Transition pieces are the best! I love how you layered this up and belted it.
I love the pop of red!
Aaaaahmazing combination! By far my favorite outfit post! :) Happy Wednesday Ashley!
I wear my summer dresses all year round - that's what tights and cardis were made for right?:)
Love your color combo!
this is BEAUTIFUL, ashley! i love love love love love those boots but the whole outfit is just adorable!
Cute! Love those shoes! I think I could actually recreate this outfit since I have most of the pieces! YAY!
Love the pop of red with your scarf and your ankle boots are so cute!

That look is really good on you - where did y'all take pictures by the way?
I'm right there with ya - I danced for 17 years / lived in tights but I still hate them too! You look great though - maybe worth the pain and suffering?!
I love how you made your summer dress work so perfectly in the colder weather and the red scarf is gorgeous against your face.

LOVE the whole outfit!! Super cute! I am inlove with your boots!! AND that scarf is gorgeous!
You..are...the...cutest. And I feel ya on the tights...eck. Hate 'em. Can't stand them. Wish they didn't exist. However, I'm afraid they're a necessary evil...:(
You are seriously the cutest mom out there! I have aspirations for myself to dress cute even after I have my baby, you have given me hope lol!
I love this outfit, you look great!

Ashley, this is one of my faves!!! I love it! High for for wearing the summer dress that got bypassed this summer! You styled it perfectly for the season. And you look precious!!
This is SO cute! Tights look good on you, wear 'em more and stay warm :)
your outfit is super cute!! I love tights! haha
i love this outfit of yours, but I love you even more which is far more important.
it's the scarf that I die over, die. dead. death. you probably stole it from a family member, huh.
I love adding a cardigan and leggings to a dress to carry it over to fall/winter. I'm not a fan of tights either. :P I've always preferred comfort to fashion. :)
so so GORGEOUS. Obsessed with that pop of red around your neck! xo
i just love this look! the scarf and boots are unexpected yet amazing :)

Adorable outfit sis! I saw a long white summer dress paired with black booties and a leather jacket...super cute. I will have to try it out.
Could you be cuter?! I have the same feelings about tights but can NOT stand to cold so the tights win...
You totally transitioned this dress, pretty lady! I love adding tights to my summer skirts, and can never have enough scarves!

i love it! you look awesome, as always!
i wore tights for the first time this fall today and i kind of liked it... it made me feel a little fancy ;)
Gorgeous belt and great pop of color with the scarf!!! Love this look. I have a dress that is crying out to be used like this but just don't have the right sweater to wear over it. Yours looks great though!
what a fun idea! i will have to go through some of my dresses this weekend and see if any would transition well! love it!
Such a great look! My favorite part is how the color of your scarf really pops, but I love the gray tights with brown booties too!

Okay, this outfit is too cute! I love it! You look amazing!
I hear you on the tights for dancers. After 14 years of shiny tights for recitals, I'm afraid of tights all together.
Found you through the pleated poppy. I'm loving your outfit, especially the pop of red! Call me crazy but I could live in tights, there's something about them that I think is uber comfortable.

As a dancer I HATE wearing tights for normal life lol. If I had to wear them for dance I'm fine - but going out somewhere... ugh - they suck lol. I would rather wear a pair of leggings than tights even lol. That outfit looks awesome though :)
So so cute!! And well in CA you don't have to convert too much other than brining out pants instead of shorts :)
You look absolutely fabulous,dear!
i love your sence of style so much!
have a beautiful day!<3
I love tights. My legs get cold at work in July so they're pretty much year round for me.
