Babe's made some highly questionable purchases in recent months (and no, Mom, this doesn't involve Merlot). In light of a dwindling bank account, she's looking to wring value out of every shoe, bag and piece of clothing she owns by utilizing them throughout the seasons. Here are some items that are wearable "Now and Later" (those are vegan, by the way!). The Salin open-toe heel ($58) from Vegan Outfitter, at right, could be worn with bare legs now but pair perfectly with thick tights in October. Roberta Oaks' Twiggy dress ($85) is good for a garden party and could also be worn under a cropped blazer or cozy shrug. Merona's sweet little green cardigan ($29.99) goes well over a white dress before Labor Day and with neutral corduroys or dark jeans after. Wear Twice Shy's organic cotton vest ($54) as an alternative to a sleeveless shirt in summer, and in a few months, under a fitted button-down shirt for a polished, all-business look. Lara Miller's versatile Donna dress ($242) is truly a frock for all seasons. It can be worn strapless and belted now for an evening date, and when the weather cools, turn the belt into a skinny scarf and add a long cardigan and brown slouchy boots for a chic autumn outfit.
