I'm very much still in the summer vibe in my day-to-day (not quite ready to give up my pool days yet), but my fashion brain is certainly shifting toward fall. It's my favorite season for fashion, and as your resident shopping director, I'm thrilled to start seeing some of my favorite labels drop those early fall pieces.
Below you'll find a list of the initial fall items that I think are the chicest. You'll spot pieces that are very much true cold-weather finds (e.g., gorgeous outerwear) along with finds that you could actually wear now and transition into fall. There are also gorgeous accessories to consider. Keep scrolling for more.
