Spanish fashion influencer María Pombo has debuted a transitional autumn outfit in Madrid featuring a short printed dress paired with knee-high black boots.
The centerpiece of her look is a 99.95 euro short dress from Spanish clothing label Desigual, worn by the content creator as part of an advertising collaboration.
Although autumn has officially arrived, September weather in the Spanish capital still allows fashion enthusiasts to combine summer garments with footwear designed for colder months. Pombo shared the outfit with her followers on Instagram stories, writing that temperatures had dropped by around seven degrees and asking how they were handling the cooler weather.
The styling reflects a popular Madrid approach to transitional weather. Closed footwear begins to replace open sandals before heavy coats and knitwear become necessary.
Pombo, a Madrid-based content creator and businesswoman, has established herself as one of Spain's most prominent digital personalities. Her style updates regularly showcase practical formulas for everyday wear, blending high-street items with high-end designer pieces.
Design features of the Desigual dress
The printed dress is featured among the latest arrivals from Desigual, a Barcelona-based fashion brand founded in 1984 that is known for its vibrant pattern work and distinctive designs. The piece stands out with a print combining floral and botanical motifs in mustard yellow, green, black, and subtle pink accents.
Made from 100 percent viscose fabric, the lightweight dress features a mandarin collar, short sleeves, and a regular fit silhouette that contours slightly before ending in a small ruffle at the hemline. Its darker, earthy color scheme helps transition the short cut into autumn as temperatures begin to cool.
Biker boots and seasonal accessories
Pombo completed the ensemble with knee-high black boots designed in a biker style, featuring flat soles and metallic buckle details. The footwear shifts the tone of the short dress towards autumn without requiring an additional jacket or sweater.
She finished the look with a brown shoulder bag featuring a braided finish, introducing a classic autumnal tone into the outfit. The combination of a short dress, tall boots, and a shoulder bag creates a versatile look suitable for daytime activities or casual evening plans.
The outfit follows other recent fashion recommendations from Pombo, who previously demonstrated upcoming seasonal trends by styling a reversible Barbour jacket and a beach minidress priced at nearly 1,000 euros.
As summer draws to a close, the pairing of lightweight dresses with tall boots remains a go-to styling formula for women in Madrid navigating the change of season.
