Get Your Wardrobe Ready For Fall With These 4 Essentials

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UVA chapter.

Now that August is over, it’s safe to say that we’re all hyped about the beginning of fall. Bring on the PSL’s and cozy sweaters, because we are ready! Here is my list of autumn essentials that make the awkward transition from summer to fall fashion a breeze.

1. Denim Jacket

A denim jacket is a must-have this season. Oversized, distressed denim jackets can add an instant edge to any outfit. They’re perfect for layering over graphic tees and sweaters, and even look great with denim jeans. Denim on denim may seem like a bold look, but it’s totally trendy right now. Here is a denim jacket from Forever 21 that is super affordable!

 

2. Autumn Colors

Having red, orange, and yellow toned pieces in your wardrobe give off those autumnal vibes, and I am living for it. Warm tones scream fall, and just emit warm, cozy feelings. Branching out and wearing warm-toned tops gives your basic tees some personality. Here is one from Forever 21 that I love!

 

3. Cozy Sweaters

Wearing cozy sweaters is one of my favorite things about fall. They’re perfect for layering over a tee on those slightly chilly days. Sweaters look so fashionable and effortless. Here is a super cute, chunky, oversized sweater from H&M that will give you serious cozy vibes.

 

4. Ankle Boots

Having a cute pair of brown or black booties is an necessity as the temperature drops.  Not only do they keep you warm, but they instantly make any outfit look ten times more put together. Here is a super simple pair from American Eagle Outfitters that are really inexpensive!

 

With these tips, you will be ready to rock the next few months of fall not only with a PSL in hand, but also in style!
