Fall is basically the fashion equivalent of a choose-your-own-adventure book. One weekend, you’re sporting your school’s colors at a football tailgate. The next, you’re romanticizing your life at an apple orchard with a cinnamon-sugar donut in one hand and a PSL in the other. Maybe you’re meeting a new group of girls at a sorority open house, browsing a local farmers market, or spending your Sunday pretending you’re the main character in a Nancy Meyers movie. Whatever the itinerary looks like, one thing is for sure: your outfit matters!
Autumn practically begs us to experiment with our personal style, and it absolutely calls for buying yet another pair of boots you convinced yourself you need. (Don’t worry, we’ve all been there.) Between cozy layers, collegiate staples, rich seasonal colors, and accessories that make an outfit feel complete, there are endless ways to put together a look that feels like you. So if your fall social calendar is filling up faster than your camera roll, consider this your fall outfit-planning cheat sheet. From football tailgates to pumpkin-picking dates, here are five fall weekend outfit ideas to match whatever your autumn has in store.
- Football Tailgate
-
Wear this Free People Collegiate Long-Sleeve Tee ($78), GAP Hailey Low Rise Loose Jean ($90), and New Balance 9060 White Sneakers ($160).
You can never go wrong with some sports merch. Add a baggy jean with some dad sneakers, and you’ve got a comfy, cute look that practically screams school spirit.
- Sorority Open House
-
Wear this Princess Polly Alanah Mini Dress ($69), Frye Company Viv Riding Boots ($300), and this Kate Spade Margot Shiny Leather Shoulder Bag ($149).
This butter yellow sundress becomes more fall-coded and sorority open house-approved with these brown accessories. The Kate Spade bag is the perfect size to fit all your rush essentials, like lip gloss and your portable charger. Plus, Kate Spade is hosting events at select universities’ sorority chapters this fall, where guests receive their own Margot bag. The tour wraps up at the University of Georgia on Oct. 24.
- Pumpkin Patch Visit
-
Wear this GUIZIO Chloe Cashmere Sweater ($188), Hollister Ultra Low-Rise Denim Micro Mini Skort ($27), and the Anna Luisa Aosta Boot ($185).
There’s something about a mini skirt and knee-high boot combo that will always do it for me. Plus, the sweater is a fun pop of color for your apple picking or pumpkin patch photos!
- Farmer’s Market Stop
-
Wear this H&M Oversized Twill Trench Coat ($99), J. Crew 2025 Rollneck Sweater ($98), Old Navy Low-Rise Baggy Wide-Leg Jeans ($28), and Vince Camuto Vinlyn Ballet Flat ($60).
A good trench coat is always the way to go. Plus, it’ll look even cuter with a chunky sweater and some ballet flats to match.
- Fall Coffee Date
-
Wear this White Fox Boutique Fleece Quarter Zip Sweater in Cream Polka Dot ($60), Zara Stretch Capri Pants ($36), and Steve Madden Selma Black Leather Ballet Flats ($110).
A fleece quarter-zip is easily one of the comfiest fall staples, and I think everyone needs one in their wardrobe. This cute polka dot moment will pair perfectly with some capris and ballet flats.
