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. Since it's still pretty hot through October here in L.A., I'm seeking out items that are lightweight and easy for the warm months but, at the same time, ooze a fresh, new-season feel. For me, this could mean slip dresses in a richer autumnal color palette and the reintroduction of lightweight knits and polished tailoring in my wardrobe.
As I scrolled Zara this week, I discovered plenty of new arrivals that fit the bill perfectly. AsBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing 's senior shopping editor, I did what I do best and scoured the site from top to bottom to bring you only the chicest summer-to-fall pieces I think are worthy of your wallet. Keep scrolling to shop my favorite pieces that you can wear now and into the new season in style.
