Getting used to the seasonal change (or lack thereof) will be a challenge. The sweaters and wool jackets have appeared suddenly in the stores, but it's difficult to take them seriously when the average temperature is still 89 degrees and holding.
Native Floridians look at the seasons much differently than those who are imports do. I found this out while talking to a lifetime resident of Dunedin, FL. I commented to her how strange it was to see the fall fashions out in force. After a quizzical look, she said, "Why? It's September already!" Ah, now I understand: Floridians judge the seasons by the calendar, while the rest of us know fall by the leaves changing color, the crispness in the air, and the cool temperatures at night.
Otherwise, we've spent several wonderful evenings on the Clearwater beach, watching the sunsets.

I've heard both ways, but honestly, I don't think attire rules are all that strict anymore. So, feel free to wear your white patent leather shoes at any time! :)
