As the summer comes to an end and you stash away the shorts, restock those shelves with a few alternatives to jeans or dress pants. The ankle crop is where it’s at – as demonstrated by brands like Publish, Stussy, Bristol Los Angeles and NSF Clothing. On top, simple tees work well, because for that final layer, we’re recommending upgraded bomber jackets, perfect for the lower temps that will soon be ushered in.
