RUST-COLORED VEST:

First on my list of wear now/wear later pieces is this chic rust-colored vest. I love the oversized fit and the color just screams fall to me. I would wear it now with a pair of white jeans just like Cathy did and later I would pair it over a long-sleeved tee and a killer pair of blue jeans. Both Cathy and I wear an XS and find it fits true to size.

RUST-COLORED SKIRT:

This stunning skirt from Micheal Stars is the ultimate summer-to-fall piece. It looks fabulous on its own with a simple blouse and then easily shifts to cooler temps paired with a cropped blazer and closed-toe pumps. It has an amazing price point under $100 so it looks far more expensive than it really is. I wear an XS and find it fits true to size.

SATIN BLOUSE:

This gorgeous satin blouse in the same shade as the skirt above is another quintessential fall item. The satin material is so silky and light, it’s perfect for the hotter temps right now. I wore it now with the matching skirt but later I would style it with slimming ankle jeans and layer under a classic leather jacket.  I wear an XS and it fits true to size.

SAGE GREEN SKIRT:

Sage green is another color that translates very well from summer to fall, and it also happens to be one of the hottest colors for 2024! I love the control band that helps define my shape and the ruching is so flattering. Toss in the subtly sexy side slit and you’ve got the perfect skirt! I wear an XS in this gorgeous skirt that also comes in black and seawater blue.

IVORY DENIM JACKET:

The classic denim jacket is a closet staple that can be worn any time of the year, so this ivory option from GRLFRND is a great option. The cuffs have button closures, so they’re easy to wear pushed up. I would wear it now with a neutral skirt and later with a pair of edgy grey denim. I wear an XS and it fits true to size.

BROWN DRESS:

Last but not least on my list of wear now/wear later pieces is this slimming brown midi dress. I love the asymmetrical hemline and the ruching is so flattering. On top of all that, the ribbed knit material is crazy comfortable, it’s like wearing pajamas! I styled it now with a pair of metallic heels and I would wear it later with a pair of black knee-high boots and a leather moto jacket. I wear an XS and it fits true to size.
