Much like everyone else in the world, we have been completely enthralled by the Olympics this week. Phelps’ incredible record-breaking feat, the amazing girls of the Fab Five, and of course, let us not forget Ryan Lochte’s abs… *sigh*

Meanwhile, at Frock headquarters, we’ve been preparing for the fall, and we’ve acquired some precious medals of our own. Our new arrivals section is full of fabulously embellished pieces that will help you make a seamless transition from summer to fall. Here’s a few of our winning picks that you won’t want to miss out on!

Bamboo Suri-44 Stud Peep Toe Flat

Our bronze medal goes to these studded peep-toe flats by Bamboo. There’s no shame in coming in third with a versatile addition to your closet like this. The natural-colored body and subtle metallic stones matches with just about everything, and the peep toe makes it wearable year-round. Pair them with tights in the cooler months to keep your toes warm, and wear them with skinny jeans and a hi-lo hem sleeveless blouse now while it’s still hot.

Stud Muffin Oversized Clutch by Street Level

The silver goes to this perfectly adorned studded oversized clutch by Street Level. With it’s neutral color, metallic studs, and generous size, this one’s a no-brainer. Upgrade your summer staples now, then pair it with a chic long-sleeved sheath in the fall. Perfect 10!

Wendy Beaded Collar Chiffon Top

And the gold goes to… this beaded-collar stunner – the Wendy blouse. This has all the makings of a fall staple piece. The rounded peter pan collar is right on trend this season, and the silver beading makes it a perfectly adorned piece to carry you through all sorts of fall events. Wear it now with a sweet black pleated skirt and flats, then pair with a velour blazer for the cooler months. Record-breaker, for sure!
