Best Bet: ADAM’s Rosette-Topped Tee

With the last half of August upon us, it’s time to start shifting toward basics that will bridge the gap between summer and fall. This silky Crêpe de Chine Cuffed Tee by ADAM is a no-brainer. The pleated rosette is a bit reminiscent of the florals that sprouted from blazers and tops in Lanvin’s resort collection, but the steel-gray shade will mix easily into your fall wardrobe. Paired with menswear-inspired trousers, this top will take you from day to night. Best of all, it’s 70 percent off.

Crepe de Chine Cuffed Tee with Pleated Chiffon Rosettes, $89 (originally $245) at ShopAdam.com.
