I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, fall fashion is my favorite! Layers with cozy cardigans and sweaters, the return of jackets and coats, and of course—boot season. (And let’s be honest, it’s a great excuse to skip the bi-weekly pedicures).
Here are some of my favorite fall outfits I’ve worn lately and key wardrobe staples I’ve been reaching for over and over this season:
Keep scrolling to see how I incorporate these into my fall looks and other wardrobe basics.
Burgundy Cardigan
Burgundy is the “it” color of the season, but you don’t need to overload your wardrobe with it. A couple of well-chosen pieces can be more than enough to keep you on trend.
For me, a cozy burgundy cardigan was the perfect pick. It’s versatile— a great to wear on its own, layered over a simple top, or even styled over the shoulders as a pop of color.
One of my favorite ways to wear it? Burgundy paired with grey makes color combo that looks both cozy and elevated. I’ve styled this look above with a grey wool blazer and shorts set from MOTF. And a pair of tall boots from Ketch Shoes (very comfy) in a dark brown croc print accessorized by an oversize tote from vegan bag brand RIONA.
It’s a look that’s both timeless and fresh, giving a nod to the season’s color palette without overwhelming your wardrobe.
Tall Boots
Tall boots are a quintessential fall staple, and this year, they’re taking center stage in my wardrobe.
They instantly elevate any outfit and add a touch of sophistication, whether I’m pairing them with a mini skirt or throwing them on with jeans for a casual day out.
My go-to has been a classic, knee-high leather pair of tall boots that transitions effortlessly from mom mode to a night out look.
If you’re looking for comfort, I’d highly recommend investing in a pair from ALLY Shoes (shown in brown outfit with mini skirt below) . They make custom shoes with a focus on quality and comfort and I have a full review of them here for their boots, and here for their shoes.

Brown Trousers
Brown trousers also having a major moment, and I’m here for it. They’re the perfect balance of cozy and chic, especially in fall-friendly fabrics like corduroy or wool.
I’ve been styling mine with chunky knits and sneakers for a laid-back vibe, or dressing them up with a sleek blouse and loafers for a more polished look.
I’m loving the combo of brown and black at the moment too; it’s effortlessly chic and adds a modern edge to any outfit, proving that mixing neutrals is anything but boring.
Brown also pairs beautifully with neutrals and jewel tones, so you can easily work them into your existing wardrobe for endless outfit options.

Skorts
Don’t worry, you don’t have to put away your summer skorts just yet—fall is still a great time to wear them, especially when paired with tights! I love a skort because it combines the best of both worlds: the feminine look of a skirt with the comfort of shorts.
This season, I’ve been styling my skorts with oversized sweaters and knee-high boots for that cozy, layered look. The skort brings a subtle nod to preppy style, which is making a big comeback this fall.

Tights
And to pair with your skorts and boots, tights are another fall essential I’m reaching for to complete my looks.
They add warmth and texture, making it easy to transition dresses and skirts into cooler weather.
And now with new fleece lined tights, you don’t have to worry about being cold in your skirts anymore!
I’m especially loving sheer black tights for a classic vibe, while patterned or ribbed options bring a bit of fun and interest to any outfit.

Denim
Denim is, of course, a year-round essential, but fall is when I like to lean into my darker, vintage-inspired washes and relaxed fits.
I’ve been living in my high-waisted wide-leg jeans lately; they pair effortlessly with everything from chunky sweaters to blazers. And when it’s time for a dressier look, a tailored denim jacket over a slip dress has been my go-to.

Maxi Skirt
A maxi skirt is one of my favorite layering pieces for fall—great for adding texture and movement to your outfit.
This season, I’m loving earthy tones and flowy fabrics that add an effortless vibe. But a staple in my wardrobe is this black denim style one that is perfect for everyday. I can paired with a turtleneck or even a fitted tee and leather jacket, a maxi skirt is perfect for everything from brunch to a cozy night out
