We’re all for getting as much mileage from our investments as possible, which is why we are firm believers in wearing pieces year round. And now, with many designers turning out seasonless items (leather in the summer and slip dresses in the fall), it’s actually surprisingly easy to pull off your most-loved looks in any temperature.
The runways were rife with new trends we’re dying to try, plenty of which can easily be worn right now. Here’s how we’re getting a jump-start on fall.
