Every Fall Outfit I Want to Wear This Year (So Far)

There’s nothing a fashion person looks forward to more than fall. The crisp crunch of the leaves, the layers of decadent fabrics, the feeling of a new beginning… It’s the season that makes me want to romanticize getting dressed again. By August, I usually hit a wall with summer fashion and find myself craving the moodier palette, heavier textures, and all the layering possibilities that autumn has to offer. We've officially reached that time of year, and it has me getting excited for what fall has to offer.

So far this year, my saved folder has been filling up with outfits that feel effortless but still pack a serious cool factor. These are the kinds of looks you can throw on without overthinking and somehow still look like you’ve got it all figured out. My goal with curating this list was to make sure to choose several looks that you can easily re-create with what's already in your closet (you're welcome).

From low-key denim pairings to elevated outerwear moments, here’s everything I’m planning to wear the second the temperature drops.

Funnel-Neck Jacket + Flannel

Funnel-neck jackets really had their big break last year, and they don't seem to be going away anytime soon. Style them with a flannel wrapped around the waist to add a 2025 touch to your look.

Leopard-Print Pants + Trench Coat

Another item that I was loving last fall was a good pair of leopard-print pants. I can't wait to wear them again this season with a good pair of pumps and a trench coat.

Denim Jacket + Sweater Over Shoulders

Here's an outfit you can easily re-create with what's in your closet. Give your old denim jacket an upgrade by styling it by draping a sweater over your shoulders; you'll naturally be obsessed.

Maxi Dress + Statement Trench Coat

You simply can’t go wrong with this combination, as it always feels like a major moment. I love the choice of a suede trench coat because let’s be real—it’s simply a trend that’s not going anywhere.

Slim-Fit Jeans + Colorful Heels

Here’s an outfit that Carrie Bradshaw would approve of. Any pair of jeans looks even cooler when you add a really great pair of shoes.

Layered Sweater + Flared Jeans

This is the kind of outfit that I would imagine on a modern-day Princess Diana. A preppy baseball hat with a button-down shirt layered under a sweater and flared denim. Incredibly stylish without doing too much.

Belted Miniskirt + Clutch

Even though longer iterations of your favorite skirt are more popular right now than ever, when styled right, a mini can make a major impact. A '90s-esque clutch will do the trick.

Trench Bomber + Button-Down Shirt + Flared Pants

I’ve never seen an outfit that better combined the Saint Laurent and Toteme aesthetic into just one look. I didn’t think my first purchase of the season would be flared pants, but I’ve officially been convinced.

Glasses + Plaid Skirt + Turtleneck

Clearly, whenever fall comes around, I have preppy style on the mind. This makes me pull out a plaid skirt and optical lenses, bringing me right back to my school uniform days. Obsessed.

Military Jacket + Jeans + Pumps

A good jacket with plenty of buttons has a way of winning me over every time. When you have a couple of jackets like this, you're always going to have outfit ideas galore. Just add your favorite pair of jeans.

Leather Jacket + Sheer Skirt

A night out in the fall is always made better when you add a sheer coat and a really great leather piece to go right with it. The contrast between a heavy and a light fabric always wins me over.

Wool Coat + Printed Jeans

The colder days of fall are always made better when you have a wool coat like this. A statement pair of jeans is the perfect thing to style it with.

Flannel + Leather Midi Skirt

Keep them on their toes. This fall, we'll be styling unexpected wardrobe staples together. Who would’ve thought a plaid flannel would look so good with a leather pencil skirt?

Denim on Denim

Because it simply never fails me. Whenever I don’t have much time to think about my outfit, I know I’ll look elevated in denim on denim. In the early fall days, I’d style it with kitten heels, and as things cool down, boots can bring a whole new vibe to the final look.

Polo Shirt + Socks + Pumps

Polo shirts have been giving me so much nostalgia lately. If you want to look librarian chic, style the look with sheer socks and cool pumps.
