Perhaps I'm biased since it's my birth month, but I can't wait until September arrives. As much as I enjoy summer style in all its carefree glory, I truly revel in fall fashion. All of my favorite brands and retailers certainly do too, as it's the season where they really step up their game—it's no coincidence that the famous September issue of Vogue is the largest of the entire year. There's just so much new-season goodness to look forward to, and Madewell is not a bad place to start.
Sifting through Madewell's new-arrivals section, I found a ton of excellent pieces I'd recommend buying right out of the gate. Who cares if it's still scorching hot out? I don't, and my closet certainly doesn't either. Scroll down to shop my favorite brand-new blazers, cardigans, dresses, shoes, and more.
