I'm here to inform you that we are nearing the end of summer 2025. If I had to guess, I'd say that 50% of you are satisfied with this news and the other 50% refuse to accept it. Either way, the temperatures are starting to dip below 70°, and light layers are making an appearance. Truth be told, I'm pretty happy about the pre-fall changes we're experiencing in NYC right now. When I'm not going on neighborhood strolls without the threat of sweat stains or jumping at the opportunity to bust out a long-sleeve, I've been putting my excitement toward an elevated fall wardrobe. Two days and 20 browser tabs later, there are track jackets, boat shoes, printed pants, statement earrings, and more waiting for you below.
It's officially light-jacket season. This one is at the top of my wish list.
Your jeans and T-shirt outfit just got a lot more interesting.
If you'd like to take a basic outfit a step further, embellish it with some retro metallic sneakers.
There's no such thing as a boring outfit when this fringe collar is in your wardrobe.
Effortless.
My coworker has this bag in black, and it's just as perfect IRL as it is online.
I'd style this with an oversize jacket, straight-leg denim, and slim sneakers for that sporty-meets-polished look.
Lace details are dominating fall trend predictions. This dainty number fits the bill.
The satin-effect fabric paired with the classic Adidas style makes for the perfect fall-approved retro sneaker.
From the cinched waist to the wide sleeves to the pockets, this cardigan is as chic as it gets.
Meet the controversial shoe trend that you'll continue seeing this fall.
The category is Statement Pants.
The Samba OG sneakers are here for the long haul. This colorway is speaking to me right now.
I saw these track pants styled at the US Open, and they've been living in my mind rent-free ever since. Grab them before they're gone.
The cozier, the better. If you still want to look chic when wearing a hoodie, opt for a cropped style.
The beauty of cuffed jeans is that they work with just about any shoe and they make every outfit look a bit more styled and elevated.
Fall layering, is that you?
Statement jewelry done absolutely right.
And the matching necklace because you deserve a full set.
Finally, low-slung trousers that actually sit low on the waist. Consider this a fall staple.
