What's Happening: Fall Fashion

In honor of the beginning of August — when we can–sort of–begin to dream of breezy days and chilly nights — and the fact that we just wrapped our fall fashion issue (you can see it in high gloss later this month, in the September issue), we thought we'd bring you a snap shot of what's to come with the cooler weather.

Here's a rundown of the top local shops that have already begun to stock autumn and winter wonders:
