12 best transitional fall clothing pieces now that summer is officially over
From retailers like Dynamite, Amazon & more.
Summer has officially parted ways with us, and while that's sad, one of the best seasons has arrived — sweater weather!
Although autumn typically calls for cool, crisp air, that isn't *always* the case, as the summer climate sometimes likes to linger (and we're not complaining!).
Navigating the weather during early fall days can be challenging, which is why transitional pieces are required. I've come across numerous must-haves that I want to add to my closet, and I figured you might want to, too.
These pieces will blend style and comfort so you can be well-equipped for whatever this season throws your way — shop dresses, skirts, shoes and more.
