Now that we're cruising through August and fall is on the distant horizon, my approach to shopping has a fresh focus: I'm looking for fashion-forward pieces that can easily transition from summer to fall seamlessly. In-between-season dressing, no matter where you live, requires items that are versatile and easy to layer, pieces that are ideal for warm temps but also ooze a fall vibe. This could mean dresses in a richer autumnal color palette, sandals in sumptuous suede, and the reintroduction of lightweight knits and polished tailoring into your wardrobe.
As I scrolled Zara this week, I discovered plenty of new arrivals that fit the bill perfectly. Below, I'm highlighting a number of standout styles that I predict we'll be spotting on fashion people—from London to L.A. and everywhere in between—for the next few months.
Keep scrolling for the transitional Zara pieces that you can wear now and into the new season in style.
