Although fall is technically around the corner, here in the south we know good and well we are going to be in flip flops for at least another couple of months. Somehow the stores didn’t get this memo and will be unloading fall clothes any day now. That means some of the “summer” clothes in stores will be going on sale. Since many current items can be worn well into fall you may want to take advantage and buy some things now that you will also be able to wear later. There are some adorable options out right now that can easily transition from late summer to early fall, possibly even beyond…
Cropped sweaters:

You probably have some of these things in your closet right now:
1. woven, plaid shirt
2. jeans or jean shorts
3. fedora
Now all you need is a light-weight, 3/4 sleeve, cropped sweater like this one. Throw it on top and you are ready to go from the beach to fall.
Floral Tunic:

Whether you splurge or go the inexpensive route, a tunic is a great transitional piece. Wear it now over shorts (I love the grey and orange combo!) or if its long enough as a dress. Then when cooler weather rolls around throw it over skinny jeans or leggings.
