Instagram user Val, who operates the account Fits and Bits, shared her .

For her first tip, the fashion expert recommended adding layers to your look.

"Throwing on a bolero, this is a base fit. It’s cute but just a little boring, just a plain tank and cargoes. But if you add the bolero sweater, I think it really completes the fit," she said, demonstrating the hack.

She also advised viewers to incorporate sweaters into their look, even if it's too hot to wear them.

Val explained: "Next, we have tying a sweater or sweatshirt around your shoulders. Here we just have a plain tank and trousers but adding the sweater really made it look so much more polished and preppy."

The styling expert told her followers that she ties sweaters, usually striped, with most of her outfits, including dresses.

She also suggested changing your hair to match the look, or adding frilly socks to dress it up a bit.

For her final recommendation, Val discussed transitioning your summer looks into fall by adding a button up to your outfit.

"This is my base outfit and honestly it’s cute on it’s own but adding this sheer button up makes it so much more interesting," she concluded.

Instagram users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on the fashion advice.

"Awesome tips! Love the way you layer your pieces!"; commented one viewer.

Another person said: "All of these just add layers. It’s too hot for that. I need a whole page dedicated to fashion while living in Florida."
