when it comes to clothing, making items work year-round makes them so much more affordable (essentially, the more times you wear something, the more it pays for itself).
Express has some great items that will not only work for summer, but, when paired with other items, will keep you looking fabulous well into the fall season.
this figure-flattering
Draped Mesh Mini is perfect for summer when paired with a simple tank and strappy or gladiator-style sandals. for fall, wear it with a crisp blouse and fun booties.
who doesn't need an all-occasion dress? this
Belted Sleeveless Dress can be dressed up for a night out, summer party or wedding. when the chill of fall comes, add tights and a fitted blazer or cardigan for a classic look that is office-friendly.
your favorite pair of "skinnies" would look perfect with something like this
Semi-Sheer Lace Tank (a great date-night look!). when the chilly fall breezes begin to blow, throw on a leather jacket to give your look an edgy, rocker feel.
hope these picks inspire you to make your own summer essentials autumn-appropriate! find the items featured at your local
