"This look is one of my favorites because it feels pulled-together but remains casual and relaxed. Look for longer-length blazers in both plaids and solids. I love wearing oversize blazers with just about everything from slip skirts to joggers to jeans." — Hayes

"Denim skirts were trending all summer, and now that it's fall, they are even more appropriate. I love being a role model to my clients, showing them that denim on denim is cool and very on-trend. If denim on denim isn't for you, try your denim skirt with a tucked-in sweatshirt or sweater with boots. Give it a try!" — Hayes

Relaxed Sweater + Jeans

"With so many beautiful fall sweater choices coming in right now, I recommend looking for these three trends. First, look for a stripe that works well with jeans, a novelty sweater like a popcorn knit that is solid to wear with skirts or jeans, and an oversize sweater that you can layer and wear in the chilliest of temps." — Hayes

Trench + Tee + Jeans

"This was my travel outfit on a recent trip to Dallas. My jeans were loose and comfortable to travel in, and the mules are easy to slip on and off for TSA. A great trench can take your simple look to another level. It doesn't get more simple and chic than this." — Hayes

Vest + Jeans

"This fall, I've been showing my clients both knit vests and suiting vests. Both sell out as fast as they arrive! Vests are a warm layer that also add a lot of style." — Hayes

Baseball Tee + Jeans

"Whether short sleeve or long, baseball tees are an easy throw-on option that is a no-brainer with jeans or joggers. Add a baseball or trucker hat to complete the vibe." — Hayes

Bodysuit + Barrel Jeans

"Not for everyone, but if you're an early adopter and love loose, baggy jeans right now, these are for you! The Citizens for Humanity Horseshoe style is a cult favorite and has been selling out! Stylist tip: Since these jeans are so full on the bottom, balance the proportion with a fitted or cropped top option." — Hayes
