When it comes to updating our wardrobes for a new season, Zara’s a solid place to snag a mix of on-trend and classic pieces that can be mixed and matched with ease. And while dressing for the tricky weather that comes as summer heads into fall can feel daunting, I vetted the site to find 12 of the best pieces you can don from now through pumpkin spice season.

Whether your favorite jeans are in need of a trendy update ($80) or you’re looking for a lightweight top ($60) that you can wear on repeat, there’s sure to be a find (or two) for you.

Crochet details have been *everywhere* this summer, and you can bring the fabric into fall with these unique wide-leg jeans that feature a strip of it down the sides.

From the rich burgundy color to the flattering pintuck details that will help define your waist, this figure-skimming frock is early fall perfection.

Made of organic cotton, this breezy top is ideal for tricky transitional temps. Plus, it has a Victorian-inspired design that's so on-trend RN.

This luxe-looking saddle bag will go with every one of your outfits next season, especially since you can switch between a canvas crossbody strap and a short and sleek faux leather one.

We're swooning over this cotton midi skirt's bold floral print and A-line shape that'll look just as cute paired with a fitted tank now as it will with a slouchy sweater come cooler weather.

Take on the concrete jungle in this safari-inspired top, featuring a light linen-blend fabric, cinchable drawstring waist and functional zipper that allows you to adjust the neckline as you please.

Yes, tie-front tops are still all the rage, and we love that this one has a built-in panel behind the ties to keep it bra friendly.

Got a fall wedding on the books? You're gonna want to snag this floral-print dress that boasts metallic threading and a tiered skirt that's perfect for twirling on the dance floor.

This peplum top was practically *made* for early fall dressing with its cable-knit fabric that looks cozy and sleeveless cut that'll keep you cool through the midday heat.

These subtly striped, slouchy pants look like they could have come straight off The Devil Wears Prada 2 set, so we'll be scooping them up to impress our own (very stylish) boss.

Western-inspired footwear is set to be one of the top trends for fall, so why not get ahead of it by snagging this knee-high leather pair while it's still in stock? Yeehaw.

A contemporary twist on a classic, this jacket has everything we love about a trench—lapel collar, double-breasted closure, roomy pockets—but at a cropped length that makes it feel fresh.
