A thorough closet cleanse is good for the soul (plus it frees up space for your autumn shopping haul, right? Just sayin'.) Still, it can be tough to stow away your summer gear in favour of warm woolens and thick socks. 

Thankfully, fall is a time of brisk mornings and unseasonably warm afternoons. It makes sense to keep your lighter items accessible for a little while longer, pairing it with cozy accessories for the cooler breezes and chillier evenings.

We asked Miranda to demo 3 of her favourite transitional fall looks incorporating some of PUMA's newest styles.

Look #1:  Weekend brunch with the girls


Miranda's carefree top and skirt can easily be dressed up or down. A lightweight jacket flatters her colouring, while the pop of pink in the shoes brings the fun factor. Best of all, she's all set to walk off those waffle calories in the park later on. 

Let's take a closer look at the details:

Look #2: Study Date

 
Now that the novelty of returning to campus has worn off, it's time to get serious about hitting the books. Some dormies think you can get away with wearing PJs in class, but we beg to disagree. Miranda's keeping it casual-chic with distressed jeans, comfortable shoes, a cropped sleeve top, and metallic accessories.

Look #3: Vintage Treasure-hunting 


Vintage shopping is still red-hot and for good reason: looking for one-of-a-kind pieces on the cheap makes sense on every possible level. Whether you're a hardcore flea marketer or prefer upscale antiquing, one thing is certain: you'll spend the entire day on your feet carrying heavy bags. Once again, Miranda's opted for a practical look that is anything but casual once you throw on a gorgeous shawl and load up on delicate accessories.
