It may still feel hot outside, but celebrities like Mindy Kaling are already transitioning their closets for the cooler seasons ahead.
Earlier this month, Kaling attended producer Jennifer Klein’s Day of Indulgence party with stars like Tyra Banks, Tiffany Haddish, and Kaley Cuoco. And she had on the perfect pre-fall outfit: a long-sleeve floral mini dress styled with a tan Prada bag and strappy sandals.
A long-sleeve dress is an ideal transition piece to wear on warmer fall days. Everyone knows that fall weather can be unpredictable — long-sleeve silhouettes offer optimal coverage of the arms, allowing you to stay warm even if the temperatures drop.
