the month of september is synonymous with NEW. i’m not one to wish away summer, but whilst the school kids snap up their new threads because it has been ruled as thus by the powers that be (shiny shoes or detention? I’ll take three pairs!), the rest of us have to actively search for new season justification.

luckily, it’s not hard to find – there are some excellent transitional pieces out there that will take you from the last rays of summer well into autumn. and we can all tell ourselves it’s like getting two for one! hoorah! here are some of my personal favorites…
