Harowitz. Butterflies & Zebras stocks gray and navy knit blazers with sleeves that can be rolled up to expose a jacket’s striped lining. “Skirts will always continue to be popular,” Harowitz said, describing the bestselling one offered at her shop as a “pull-on, one-size-fits-all skirt that they wear with leggings. It’s a super-mini; that’s why the leggings are so great.” Butterflies & Zebras’ signature seamless tank, available in an array of colors, goes well under any top or sweater, Harowitz said. “Honestly, denim jeans are what the girls all wear, with some kind of a cute crop top,” Harowitz said. “Layering is very important. They like to wear what they’ve been wearing, and then mix it up with accessories, which include chunky bracelets, denim bracelets and anything that has zippers.” With Labor Day rapidly approaching, it’s time to go shopping to make that Back to School wardrobe fresh and its very best. To get there, all the shop owners agreed that Uggs remain the footwear of choice for most girls — certainly for those in the middle school and high school crowd — and they’re perfect for tucking in those skinny jeans everyone loves.

The point is that color is going to be a big part of fall, as opposed to gray and black.” Feminine, sheer blouses, “with a lot of lace,” are flying out of the store, Bijoux said, adding, “a lot of the tops we’re selling and buying right now are not exactly cropped but on the short side. They’re not particularly long. Right now in the store we have mostly short-sleeved tops, a little oversized and extremely feminine.” Bold prints — floral, Aztec, geometric, abstract — often come in black and white and serve as a great contrast to all that color. Dresses Bijoux is seeing for fall continue a trend from the spring. One of them she called a “twofer,” which, she said, looks like a skirt with a blouse. “It’s all put together and is the look that everybody wants,” she said. “It’s just one piece. You put it on and it’s done. Having said that, we do sell a lot of separates to get the same look, like the little black skirt with blousy top.” Across the state line, Butterflies & Zebras in Ridgefield, Conn., caters to shoppers 7-14 “all the way through contemporary, cool mom clothes,” said owner Shari Harowitz. “Colored jeans are going to continue to be hot for fall, paired with crop tops and plaid shirts, but with more fitted silhouettes, not your father’s plaid shirts.” Knit blazers are a “nice way to change it up a bit, but not so structured and not in a stiff fabric,” said
