End-of-season Summer sales are here, although many items have been discounted for months. If you feel like adding something to your hot-weather wardrobe — especially when your Summers are long — have a peek at the assortment. Some items are winners from our forum members and my clients, and others simply caught my eye. Browse the colour options and read the reviews.

Neat fit on the neckline and armhole. Very soft and comfy fabric. Comes in petite, tall, and goes up to XXL. Available in solid mustard and navy.
- Gap Venture Pant: Athleisure pants that work well on a straighter and curvier figure. Curvy figures might need to size up. 100% Polyester, yet breathable. Robust, sporty, and easy to launder. Comes in a unique light blue.
