As we begin the month of August, we look ahead to the end of summer. Right now, looking for those pieces that can fit your transitional wardrobe is key. Think of lightweight jackets, denim and knitwear for everyday looks. Whether you want to stay cool during those hot days or layer up in cool nights, those casual essentials will get you through the month. For footwear, a cross-strap sandal or embroidered flats makes the perfect finishing touch.
