4 Low-Key Fall Outfits Fashion Editors Are Relying on This Season
Sponsor Content Created With AG
You may think that living in L.A. means I wouldn't really know how to dress for fall, but I'm here to explain why that's not true. When it comes to fall outfits, I actually have quite an advantage: L.A.'s moderate weather gives me more time to curate the perfect seasonal wardrobe, source inspo, and even practice a little trial-and-error ahead of the cooler days.
So for the past few weeks, I've been doing exactly with the help of my co-worker, fashion editor Anneliese Dominguez. Not to brag, but I think we've got some pretty genius outfits to share. They're all low-key, stylish, and perfect for everyday wear thanks to the cool pieces we found in AG's new collection. You'll find everything from denim to knits to vegan-leather outerwear in these four looks.
"When fall comes around, I usually reach for my never-ending collection of jeans, but this year is different," Anneliese tells me. She's got another denim style on her mind: midi skirts. A true L.A. girl, she styled this washed-grey skirt from AG with a ribbed tank and a lightweight, cropped denim jacket, but a wool or vegan-leather blazer and turtleneck will make an easy swap on cooler days. "This midi skirt maintains the casual element in my outfit but steps it up a notch, and the tall boots are a chic, fashion person approved touch," she says.
Speaking of fantastic outerwear options, Anneliese has found her go-to for rain or shine. "The quilted fabric feels very on-trend for the season, and the color is that perfect olive-green shade that you can pair with just about everything in your closet. Plus, it's lightweight but surprisingly warm," she explains. (Side note: This embroidered utility jacket is upcycled from vintage garments, so each one is unique.) As for her casual-cool styling, Anneliese decided to "let the jacket steal the show and keep the rest of the look simpler by adding an easy cropped tee, relaxed trousers, and chunky penny loafers." No notes.
I reach for denim at least five days a week, so most of my favorite fall 'fits involve a good pair of jeans. I'm really into intentionally baggy, loose-fitting jeans right now, and this Ezzra style from AG is so good I had to get it in two washes (more on that later). I styled this medium-blue pair with a denim vest worn as a top for a denim-on-denim look that makes a statement but still feels effortless. Expect to see me in these jeans often. I'll be styling them with chunky sweaters, long-sleeve tees, and more soon.
I wasn't lying when I said I loved these jeans so much I got multiple pairs. I took note of Anneliese's denim skirt when choosing this distressed grey wash, and I'm so happy I did. Trust me: They're just as easy to style as blue jeans. I wanted to stick to a neutral palette here, so a black turtleneck and accessories were the move. The star of this look is clearly this dreamy, grey, vegan-leather jacket. The fabric is buttery soft (as are all the pieces in AG's vegan-leather collection, by the way), and thanks to the tie, it's quite versatile. My other blazers don't really stand a chance this fall, and I'm okay with that.
