Can you believe we’re halfway through August already? I’m in a bit of denial that summer is coming to an end, but I am super excited for all things fall fashion.

Our summers are getting hotter and longer, and here in the Mid-Atlantic, our “fall” is pretty short. It feels like it goes from 80 degrees to 40 degrees overnight! I’ll never forget in November of 2017, I went on an 11-day trip, and it was 75 degrees the day I left, and it dropped to 45 degrees the day I came back. Sometimes, we just go straight from summer to winter!

So, how do you dress for fall when it’s still a bajillion degrees out? I love all things leopard fashion because it’s a trend that you can wear year-round. If you purchase anything leopard right now, it will transition from summer to fall with ease.

Here are ten leopard fashion pieces that can carry you to the next season, make sure to scroll down to the end of the post to see them all!

Zara Embellished Floral Midi Dress - Why You Should Shop the Stage Stores x ThredUp Pop Up featured by Top DC fashion blogger, Alicia Tenise

You guys know that I love to both splurge and save when the time is right. Being a 20-something, there are some pieces that I’m willing to invest in, and there are some trendier items that I’d prefer to save on.

If you watched my Instagram Stories yesterday, you know that I headed out to Warrenton, VA to check out the brand new ThredUp x Stage Pop Up at Peebles. This isn’t your average secondhand shopping experience: you’re going to find pieces that you love at this pop-up from brands that you love.
