Let me chat to you for a minute about an often forgotten about time of year; the handful of weeks between summer and fall when the weather is cooler (at times) but still too warm to pull out those warm knits and too-big-for-me scarves. It's technically Fall.... but here on the east coast of Canada we savour each semi-warm day we can before the grey and chilly weather sets in for the long haul. It's during these weeks that are perfect for taking some of your favourite spring and summer pieces and pairing them with some fall staples for a great transitional look. 

How fun is this skirt? It is so comfortable and draped just right to flatter any figure type and of course let's not forget about that amazing front side slit that gives you a peek-a-boo of leg with each stride. I can't say enough about this piece; it's well fitted, dramatic, and an essential year-round piece that can be styled endlessly... that's probably why this classic skirt from Zafira is available through Spring/Summer and into Fall/Winter. In warmer weather this skirt is typically paired with a racer back cropped tank and a pair of strappy sandals.  To take it from transitional weather into cooler Fall/Winter temperatures; just pair it with a faux fur vest, a light-weight scarf, and textured ankle boots for an instant cozy Fall/Winter look. 

What piece do you love wearing year around?
