When Is Early Too Early?

(**Attention, do not read if you are a trendy shopper)

After watching the Fall '13 fashion shows and vetoing everything in my closet for next season, when is it too early to buy fall fashion? 

From a money standpoint it's right on time. The Fall '12 clothes are on sale, with discounts getting higher everyday.

From a trend standpoint, not too much unless you happen to have a pair of Prabal Gurung knee high lace up leather boots in your closet. 

With temperatures still in the 40's and 50's, at least in the northeast, maybe it's time to start trying the trends before they even hit the stores. And isn't that what makes someone trendy in the first place?
