While many fashion magazines offer advice about getting the most out of your summer wardrobe, very few give suggestions about wearing your fall wardrobe during warmer weather. Since Destin is home to one of the country's largest designer factory outlets, Silver Sands, and South Walton is peppered with a number of trendy boutiques, here are some tips for looking fashion-forward during your fall vacation.
Lightweight cropped pants are great options, and can be paired with a sandal, a ballet flat or a heel.
