We're now well into autumn, which for much of the country means cozy sweaters, falling leaves, and warm cinnamon lattes. But for those of us on the West Coast, fall's arrival can be a bit confusing. Here in Los Angeles, the day's forecast might be a pleasant 85º or a crisp 60º—there's really no telling—meaning it's hard to decide when to break out those knee-high leather boots or that brand-new sherpa jacket.
The sartorial struggle is real… Luckily, whether you're bracing the NYC cold or in L.A. just trying to not sweat through your turtleneck (just me?), Forever 21 has you covered. Intrigued? Keep scrolling for four easy looks for whatever forecast you're dealing with.
