Aerie Oh Snap! Sweatshirt
The Oh Snap! The sweatshirt collection launched last year and has been a hit ever since. With its henley-style, it has a comfortable fleece feel and is preferred to be baggy by many.

Knee-High Boots
Boots are the perfect shoe for the fall season. For the downtown girlies and anyone who loves to dress up, a good pair of knee-high boots will complete any look. Knee-High boots add definition to an outfit and create the sharp look that every girl dreams of. A perfect fall outfit could be nothing without a classic pair of boots. Brown and black are the classic colors that never fail through the changing seasons, and buckles have been a recent style that seems to stick. A good pair of boots will never fail you, and you may need them for something you wouldn’t expect. Pair them with a jacket and mini skirt.Â
Striped & Plaid Patterns
Though this isn’t an item specifically, these patterns are definitely going to be seen throughout the next few months. Whether it’s on a sweater or pair of pants, many recognize any of these designs as a fall staple. These designs “scream” fall and are perfect to pair with a basic color. Striped & plaid patterns allow you to be even more creative when it comes to making an outfit, and can either be basic or totally fun! Even if it’s just an accessory, it still brings that classy, fresh vibe that you might be looking for. Buying a piece/accessory with one of these designs is 100% worth it!
Oversized Jackets
Jackets are another staple that brings together an autumnal look. With all of the different styles of jackets, each can bring you to an entirely different look, but still make you feel confident every time. Not only do jackets make you look put together, but they keep you warm during the colder season. Because there are so many different types of jackets (Faux, leather, jean, etc.), you’ll find one that perfectly fits your style. Jackets can be an investment, but they can last you years and are totally worth the price. Pair them with a nice top and jeans.Â

Since this item is so basic, you could pair it with just about anything. It’s a great way to keep warm but also keep up your outfit game. Pair it with jeans or wide-leg sweats.Â
Ballet Sneakers/Adidas Samba Jane Shoes
This trend is especially new this year, and it’s only the cutest thing ever! After last year’s peak of Sambas, Adidas decided to follow the “chic” trend and make them into fancy attire. It has the same design as the Sambas, except it doesn’t cover your entire foot. The shoe has a velcro band that wraps over the middle, leaving an opening in the upper and lower part. They resemble the popular ballet flats that came around last year, but still keep that athletic feel. Pair these with dark wash jeans.
Slouchy Bags
The perfect accessory to end off every outfit is a bag. Slouchy tote bags are the new trend for this year and are perfect for the girls who love to carry absolutely everything. There are many different sizes, and can fit many different things at once! Most are made out of leather, so they give off that shiny look as you’re walking by.
