Ten perfect pieces to help you slide smoothly from summer into fall - each of which looks just as great right this moment as it will in a couple of months.

1. Distressed Black Jeans. Wear them now with barely-there heeled sandals and a sleeveless tank; wear them later with…well, everything. These are a must-own for fall.

2. Shirtdress. A chambray shirtdress looks adorable in the summer with flat sandals, and is a great layering piece once the temperatures drop (try it with chunky tights, riding boots and a knit vest).

3. Boyfriend Cardigan. The ultimate summer-to-fall must-have…especially if you can find one in an unusual shape, like this great knit style from J.Crew.

Summer is the best. I think we can all agree on this point.

But as much as I don't especially want to say goodbye to the sun and sand and sea, I'm pretty excited about what's on the way, which is, if not the BEST season ever…certainly the second-best. Especially back on the East Coast, and especially in the part of the East Coast where we live: it's all Haunted Houses and leaves and pumpkin patches and everything that I love the most in the world.

Another thing that's the best: fall sweaters. Yum yum yum.
