Not Ready to Give Up ‘Tomato Girl Summer’? Here’s How to Keep the Style Going Through Fall
Amidst all the Barbiecore looks of summer 2023, there was another style that unexpectedly took the world by storm: "Tomato Girl Summer."
Inspired by the Mediterranean coast and summers spent lounging at Italian villas in a luxurious way most of us could only dream of, this trend appeared in 2023 and quickly took over our For You pages before we even knew what was happening. If you only recently learned about it, you aren't too late to enjoy the gorgeous aesthetic now that the "summer" part of the trend is officially past.
Red Trousers
Dresses may have been the item of the summer for tomato girls everywhere, but loose-fitting trousers are a great way to transition the look into fall when the temperatures take a dip.

Add a Simple Scarf or Neck-Tie
Lightweight scarves that can be tied either on your head or around your shoulders are commonplace in spots like Italy over the summer, as exposed shoulders aren't allowed in a lot of tourist spots like churches and other monuments. These coverup-style items can also be extremely cute, making them a great way to transition them for fall.
Subdued Florals
Forget the bold, tropical prints and trade them in for something a lot more tablecloth-like. We aren't kidding, even if you think the sound of said style is far from appealing. In reality, it translates well since the slightly subtler prints won't distract from the rest of your look or from how you speak and convey yourself in a public setting.
Go for the Glow
Forget the tanning bed and embrace the faux tan look this fall, as your skin will be thanking us as much as your wardrobe will. After all, you're going for a fresh-off-a-European-yacht look, and the best way to get that is by making it look like you actually did hop off the nearest yacht. In reality, though, a self-tanner like this one from St. Moriz, $20 will do the trick.

Red Accessories, Always
Red boots, red jackets and even red purses all over TikTok this fall, and we think the trend is a great way to connect your favorite summer looks with the start of fall. Don't go too far overboard with so many red accessories at once, but also get creative with pairing non-traditional red shoes with unexpected settings.
Even if you've never been to Italy and can't stand the taste of tomato sauce, "tomato girl summer" is, in a way, for everyone. For more info, click HERE for some TikTok-predicted beauty trends.
