Now that September is here, it's just about time to pack up my sundresses and sandals and start focusing on my fall wardrobe. I always stock up on the basics I know I'm going to need for the coming season and purge pieces from the previous season that I'm no longer loving. While doing my closet clean-out, I noticed my wardrobe was starved of great knit tops to wear on a date night this fall.
I don't have any dates on my calendar at the moment, but I am manifesting a season full of them. Buy the date night top, and the date will come. To prepare, I rolled up my sleeves and headed to Reformation, Revolve, and Nordstrom to hunt for flirty knit tops that would be perfect for a fall date night. I found 30 that fit the bill, and trust me—they're good.
