As we enter the second Friday of October, we are fully in the fall season...I think. Pennsylvania it feels a little more like summer but I am not complaining. I am enjoying this warmer summer return of weather. Give me more.
Despite the warmer weather, it is fun to check out the fall clothing. Fall means the transition from shorts or skorts to pants. I love skorts and I do whatever I can to wear them all year round. One of my favorite transitional pieces is the 2 in 1. The combination of tight and skort is so much fun on the golf course. It has an athletic feel but meets the requirements for golf course attire. I think Athleta makes some of the best 2 in 1 pieces. I have been wearing them for over 10 years. Athleta has a great feminine touch with excellent quality. Typically their 2 in 1 line are solids. I do have one piece with a subtle print for the golf course.
The 2 in 1 piece above is the Athleta Evaluation 2 7/8 tight. I bought the piece at the end of season last year and paid $78. Typically Evaluation 2 will cost you $89. Athleta will cost you a little more but the quality is worth it. I also find the costs of Athleta cheaper than what you find at the golf course pro shop or golf specific lines. I receive the weekly Athleta shopping emails which helps to alert me to sales or end of season final items. I have a pair of 2 in 1 from Athleta from 2011 and still look like new. So if you get a solid or simple print you can wear for many seasons. The 7/8 fits me more like a full legging. I got the medium for a little longer length in the leg and more room in the waist. Athleta legging or legging style are true to size for me. The piece only has one small pocket at the back of the waist. I can put tees and ball markers in the pocket.

I paired my leggings with a cow neck Polo Golf Pullover. I found this piece last fall at TJ Maxx of $29.99. The pullover is a great layer piece. It is a little lighter weight so good for the cooler fall mornings that may warm up. I have worn this pullover under a golf vest and have plenty of room to swing. I love a cow neck. I just feel like it keeps me warmer. The top has plenty of room to put another shirt under it and feel comfortable. I bought the pullover in size medium. The length at the arm and waist sits perfectly for me. Not too long. I do recommend always trying on Polo items. I some may run small. Pullovers I like to wear a small but I chose a medium in this piece. Buying a Polo golf piece a TJ Maxx is going to save you money. At a pro shop or Polo online pullovers will run from $85-$150.
