I am not necessarily ready for fall yet, but I am already making a list of some of the must-have staples that I need/want to get ready for the season. All of these can be added to my current wardrobe to help transition from spring to fall. Here’s a list of ten of my favorite picks for the season. Stores are already stocked with pre-fall and fall merchandise, so start shopping now! Let us know what you are craving or what you’ve already bought.
