We've almost made it to the end of summer. I don't know about you, but I'm just about done shopping for warm-weather clothes for the time being. After too many heat waves to count, I've mentally begun moving on to fall, and that includes what I'm shopping for lately.
Year after year, the first things I start shopping for as fall approaches are two pieces I can actually wear first: jeans and flat shoes. Jeans and flats are also what I wear the most during the fall season, and they tend to start selling out early in the season. Getting a head start is strongly advised.
Below, I've selected 15 pairs of jeans and 15 pairs of flats that are good enough to sell out before fall even arrives. They're on-trend, and I know I'd wear them a ton, which is strong enough criteria for me. Keep scrolling to shop my selects along with me.
