It is not Fall yet. Not even close, in my mind anyway. We had a late start to the Summer here on the West Coast, so I’m soaking up every minute of sunshine and heat. I know sartorially we always want to skip ahead to the next season. Rather than choosing to shop one season or another, opt for pieces that can transition seamlessly from one season to the next.
