I’m Stocking up on These 22 Transitional Fall Basics From the Aritzia Sale
Wardrobe staples you can wear now and into autumn for under $200.
Transitional dressing is tricky. Summer trends don't feel quite as timely anymore, and it feels too early to bust out in the heavy fabrics of trendy fall fashion. Investing in lightweight layers, multi-seasonal jackets, and plenty of denim is vital. So, I'm shopping for every transitional piece I need on sale at Artizia—one of my go-to brands no matter the weather—to get me through these last days of the season.
From now through August 12, Aritzia is throwing an end-of-season sale with up to 70 percent off over 2,000 pieces. It's truly a massive sale. The sale section contains every piece you need this early fall season. Think cashmere sweaters for chilly mornings, blazers to combat a crisp in the air or chilly office AC, and trench coats for every occasion. I even found some on-trend denim you can wear now and well into the colder seasons ahead. Whether it's a classic button-down shirt or a cool pair of cargo pants, rest assured each piece on this list can be worn now and well into fall.
The best part? Every find is under $200. Keep scrolling to shop the best transitional finds from Aritzia because fall will be here before you know it.
