Autumn?

It's hard to distinguish the end of summer, in Los Angeles, from the beginning of autumn. There are a few cloudy days and you think, oh summer is over. Then it's 85 degrees again for a week.  Summer not over? The more important question is: what do I wear? I know I'm not ready to wear long sleeves and boots and even long pants yet! Take it slow and gradual like. Wear your denim shorts with a tank top and a lightweight cardigan or jacket. Or wear your fave sundress with little ankle booties and a cropped jean jacket. This way, you're prepared for a summer day AND an autumn day, which can be the very same day. This is also a good time to put your autumn (I like saying autumn better than fall - it sounds prettier) wardrobe in the forefront of your closet and drawers. Helps get you into the mood.
I'm holding out and only wearing flip flops and sandals until my feet get numb from the cold. You know, during our freezing 60 degree winters.
