Fall is here! The temperature is dropping and leaves are changing colors. That means new fall fashion essentials to add to your wardrobe. Keep reading about some of our fashion must haves for the season!
- Cozy sweater. Arguably the greatest fall staple, you NEED one of these for fall. Not only are they comfortable, they’re super cute. Any color would look great and could be worn with almost any bottoms you choose. This Splendid Olga Cable Knit Sweater | Bloomingdale’s (bloomingdales.com) is a beautiful choice for your cozy sweater this fall.
2. Scarves. Scarves are always an excellent addition to any outfit, especially in fall. One great thing that’s so great about scarves is how versatile they are. You can pair them with almost any outfit, and it’ll work. They also serve as a great way to add a pop of color to your outfits. This Scarf from Cozy Fringe Scarf | Anthropologie is a beautiful choice if you want a fun addition to your style.
3. Shoulder bag. I think accessories are a really important addition to outfits and a cute small shoulder bag is a great way to do this. These can really elevate an outfit, especially in fall with cozy sweaters and jeans. This Luna Shoulder Bag In Signature Canvas | COACH® screams “fall” and has so many different patterns and colors to choose from, so you can’t go wrong with any outfit you pair it with.
4. Colorful Cardigan. Not only do they keep you warm, but they also serve as a colorful statement piece in your wardrobe. I love to pair a colorful cardigan with a neutral shirt, so it really serves as the statement piece in the wardrobe. This Cardigan Cashmere Crewneck Cardigan | Kate Spade New York from Kate Spade is a beautiful choice and sure to catch attention.
5. Flare jeans. Flare jeans have been making a comeback and they’re a great fall styling choice. It’s simple yet adds a little spice to every outfit. You can pair these with a cozy sweater, a dressed tank or even a basic tee-shirt. These Women’s Flare Jeans – Bell Bottom Jeans – Express from express are great quality and can be styled with most every top in your closet.
6. Turtlenecks. I believe that everyone should have at least one turtleneck in their closet, as they’re so versatile and have so much potential with layering. I personally suggest a classic black, however any neutral color is a great place to start. This Na-kd Ribbed Knitted Turtleneck Sweater – Black | ModeSens from Na-Kd is a great choice to have in your wardrobe.
7. Black Doc Martens. Doc Martens are a classic staple all year round but are also a great choice for fall. These pair well with any denim, but if you wanted to explore other choices it would look great with a skirt or a pair of shorts. I would definitely recommend having at least one pair of these in your closet. Jadon | Platform Boots | Dr. Martens Official | Dr. Martens (drmartens.com) I personally love these leather ones, but they have a plethora of options on their website.
8. Ear warmers. Ear warmers can add a really unique touch to your closet and can also be useful in wintertime. There are so many different colors, styles and embellishments you can choose from to really make your outfit pop. They can also keep your head and ears warm, which is just an added bonus. This JET PEARL CLUSTER EAR WARMER – Lele Sadoughi is a great fall option and pairs well with most any fall outfit.
9. Belts. Although belts are a great staple any time of year, I would definitely recommend one for all your fall outfits. A neutral black, beige or brown are a great choice to your outfit, but won’t steal the show from whatever you want to be the statement. This Red Wing Leather Belt | Nordstrom is definitely an important addition.
10. Festive Earrings. I personally love small festive earrings and October is Halloween, so there are so many ways to add a little extra part of your personality to your style. Both silver and gold are beautiful options and will add so much to your outfit than you’d think. These Spooky Earring Set – Halloween stud earrings – BaubleBar are such a fun way to Halloween vibes to fall fashion.
Be sure to take some of these suggestions to heart as you begin to style your favorite fall outfits. Just adding a few accessories can really pull an outfit together!
