Fall clothes are out and summer is all on sale (PS: that’s why this is the best time to shop for summer clothes). Since everyone is getting into Pumpkin Spice mode but the weather often stays warm through September and sometimes even October, I’m always on the hunt for the perfect summer to fall transition dresses—styles that are lightweight enough for the warmer temps but whose colors and prints work for late summer and into early fall.
