We’re adding these tops to our wardrobes for the summer-to-fall transition

With summer coming to an end, it can be difficult to decide what to wear during this transition period. Louisiana poses a special challenge, since it remains hot here well into what the rest of the country considers fall. So do you keep wearing those white jeans or work to fit into the seasons as they are styled by all the major retailers?

We’re opting for a healthy mix of both. With a special focus on tops, we rounded up a few of our picks from local boutiques for striking the balance between fall vibes and Louisiana weather demands.

Who said fall was only for neutral colors? This bright orange top from Aria will perk up any outfit.


We’re here for this leather look from Head Over Heels. A sophisticated black top can be styled so many ways, and it also comes in brown.


Turtlenecks and fall just go together, and these neutral tops from Hemline Towne Center make us understand why.

You can never go wrong with a black, ruffle-sleeve top. This blouse from NK Boutique can be dressed up with a skirt and heels or dressed down with some high-waisted jeans and sneakers.
