OOTD - Transitional Summer Outfit

Here we are, the second last week of August and it's chilly - still sunny, but chilly.  Not one to get too upset over Fall's early appearance, I've been having fun slowly easing into fall style while still keeping a light, summery pallet.  White is the quintessential summer colour, so what does it matter that it's in a pant rather than a short or a skirt?  Besides, after a overindulgent summer filled with patios, desserts and cocktails  - pants are actually a welcome (and borderline necessary) change.  Add a pair of booties and a floppy felt hat and I'm almost ready to forgive the early departure of summer - almost.  Read on to see a typical outfit for the transition from warm summer days, to chillier weather and all outfit details.

White Crop Jeans - Old Navy (similar) , Grey Sweater - Gap (similar), Hat - American Apparel (similar)
Boots - Steve Madden Plover, Bag - Madewell

I love a good hat, and I have gotten so much use out of this floppy felt hat from American Apparel.  I have learned that adding a hat gives even the most simplest of outfits a more put-togther look.  Plus, I love the fact that it disguises a bad hair day!

Are you experiencing a cold end-of-summer?
