Labor Day Looks With Veronica M With Vintage Havana Outfits
Labor Day weekend is the perfect chance to provide a last hurrah to summertime favorites while slowly beginning the transition into fall attire. The long weekend brings the opportunity for a getaway to somewhere fun and relaxing and we have all the best pieces from Vintage Havana, Veronica M, and Citizens of Humanity to pack along. Be sure to pack in a few sundresses and summertime staples, but don’t leave behind your new transitional fall pieces that will be perfect for evening barbeques or breezy strolls by the beach. Celebrate the weekend in style with must-have shorts, dresses and tops for a transitional weekend embracing the end of summer.
Sundresses and maxi dresses only have a short time left in the spotlight before colder fall weather pushes them aside, so now is that time to embrace the ease of summer dresses and wear them with gusto through the last weeks of summer. We love a good maxi dress for the long weekend, the style says chic and relaxed at the same time since the long skirt is easy and comfortable while entirely elegant. This multicolored maxi is a favorite style from Veronica M with summery halter neck ties and a plunging neckline. The soft draping fabric provides ultimate comfort while bright warm colors liven up this dress in a scattered patchwork print. The orange, purple and green shades in this pattern create a bohemian look that wears well with platform sandals and layered bracelets. Wear this dress for the long weekend as you travel and enjoy your holiday in style.
Labor Day is traditionally the last chance of the season to wear summer whites. So bring out the whites! Get your fill of crisp summer white pieces before we put them away until next year by trying a cool and fashionable summertime style that we always love: the all-white ensemble. Take it to the max this Labor Day weekend with a snowy shorts and top combo. These distressed white shorts from Vintage Havana are the perfect relaxed jean short for the warmer season. The loose fitting boyfriend style is comfortable and chic with trendy rips that enhance the summery feel. Pair these with an off the shoulder white top for a dreamy look that embraces summer trends. This Glam white top is so easy to dress up or down and looks so cute tucked lightly into ripped shorts. With a raw hemline that adds texture and intrigue to the look while an elastic band across the shoulders maintains comfort.
Labor Day weekend is a great opportunity for fun outdoor BBQs, and we know just what you should wear for a cool and casual look that is worthy of an backyard party - a comfortable and cute romper! This little romper from Vintage Havana is an easy piece to wear with sandals and a necklace for a quick but put-together outfit. The subtle shades of grey, black, blue, and pink in a geometric zigzag pattern combine for a fun yet refined look with sweet details. The scalloped ricrac along the neckline is a small detail that adds a thoughtful touch to the piece, while a ruffled hem at the bottom of the shorts is a sweet and feminine addition. Cinched at the waist, this boho chic romper would look chic with a black belt to add further definition to the fitted waistline. A tie at the back of the neck is a certain reminder of the summery nature of our favorite one piece rompers, not to mention outdoor BBQs which we rely on warm weather for!

If the outdoor party continues into the late evening after the sun has set, that is the perfect opportunity to break out some fresh fall finds to ward off the cooler evening temps. This cold shoulder ribbed top from Veronica M ideal for a cool summer evening now, as well as a crisp fall day later. With a mock neck and long sleeves this top will keep you warm while the bare shoulder cutouts keep the look trendy with a nod to summery styles. In a neutral heathered grey color this top is so easy to wear with shorts or jeans for the long weekend. The simple fit and ribbed fabric work well for a casual look, yet this top is easily dressed up since the trendy cold shoulder details and chic mock turtle neck bring fashion-forward elements into the look.
Every trip or vacation ever requires packing along at least one pair of jeans, and we have a great new arrival for you to bring to Labor Day weekend wherever you go! These high rise Citizens of Humanity jeans are comfortable and flattering for your everyday needs while the dark wash color make them so easy to dress up as well. The Rocket high rise skinny is a favorite fit, and this new fall wash is a perfect worn-in mid-dark color that everyone will love. Wear these jeans with your cute summery tanks and tops during the daytime, and bundle up in a longer sleeved top like the one above for evenings on the back porch. This pair is an instant classic for the remainder of summer, and will look great with your new fall pieces as well once the seasons change.
Another great transitional piece to break out this Labor Day weekend is this floral appliqué sweatshirt dress from Vintage Havana. With a mini dress fit and floral details the dress has summer elements that work well for a cooler August day, while the thick cozy fabric and longer sleeves bring the look into fall for a gorgeous and relaxed autumn look. The otherwise simple grey dress is brought into a trendy realm with the appliqué roses on both shoulders adding an element of interest that draws in the eye with the pop of color. The large flowers bring a textural effect to the loose sheath fit style. For the holiday weekend, wear this dress with lace up sandals and a high topknot for a casual summery look on a cooler day. Any looks from Veronica M or Vintage Havana is a guaranteed win for fall!
