Fall Fashion Essentials: Everything you need to be Stylish and Comfortable this Season

Autumn is here! Which means we can finally start dressing in cozy sweaters and warm hats. I have a couple fall fashion essentials that I always have in my closet, and I wanted to talk about them today.

I have never really considered myself a stylish person. When I look at my wardrobe, I see a lot of comfy clothes. Not cozy like sweaters, but comfy like leggings and other athleisure wear. I focus more on what feels good rather than what looks good. But I have recently been trying to up my game in the fashion department. I want to look good and feel good, especially during my favorite season, so I have been trying out some new looks and clothing trends.

I am a champion for people wearing whatever they feel best in. A lot of times with fashion, I see a lot of “gurus” telling people what they should and shouldn’t wear. Yes, there are trends that you can follow, and a lot of times they are super cute. But if you feel most comfortable in something untrendy, or out of season, who cares? You will be your best self when you are comfortable with how you present yourself to others. Confidence is way more stylish than any clothes.

Luckily, fashion often merges with comfort during the Autumn season! Whenever I wear sweaters, scarves, and hats I feel like I’m being wrapped in a warmth cocoon. There is nothing better than putting on a cozy warm outfit to take a walk around your neighborhood or go shopping for fall decorations. Fall is the superior season for fashion, you cannot change my mind about that. I love the season so much that the majority of my closet is filled with fall fashion essentials, and I just spend the rest of the year waiting to wear them again.

I will say, as I am currently writing this, however, there is a heatwave where I live. It is currently 96 degrees and I am sweating. With a fan blowing in my face and a glass of iced cold lemonade next to me, I will be imagining that I’m sipping a warm apple cider on a chilly day when I can finally wear these outfits again.

1. Denim Jacket

Denim jackets go with everything, so it is an easy staple in any fall wardrobe. It can go over a nice dress, a long skirt, or some fall-colored pants. You can even do denim on denim with some jean pants. I am always striving to find pieces for my wardrobe that are versatile, and a denim jacket is just that.

This specific denim jacket from Amazon is so cute. I love the oversized look of it, and the light wash color goes great with my aesthetic.

2. White Knit Sweater

This is one of my absolute favorite pieces in my collection. I wear my white knit sweater throughout fall and winter, and even a little in the springtime. It can be paired with so many colors and wearing it with simple denim jeans is a quick and adorable outfit.

Clicking the image above will bring you to Amazon, where you can find this sweater in white along with a lot of other color options, if you want to spice up your look. I love the variety of colors, but I usually stick with white because I can match it with any look and any season.

3. Scarves

Scarves are an easy way to add some flair and warmth to any outfit. They come in a variety of warm colors and patterns, you can create so many fun looks.

This one from Amazon has so many different color combinations that are perfect for both fall and winter. Throw this over your white knit sweater and a pair of warm jeans and you have yourself the perfect autumn look.

4. Cardigans

I love a good cardigan. I love them so much, my collection doesn’t fit on one shelf anymore, I have so many. Cardigans are so easy to add any outfit once it gets cooler. They are fantastic for layering on those days when it is freezing in the morning and warm in the evening. Wearing something you can take off, like a cardigan, is so easy and it’s functional.

I usually go for the longer cardigans like this one imaged above from Amazon. It comes in so many colors, but I am partial to a simple black or the mustard yellow color that has gotten so popular over the past couple of years.

5. Boots

When the weather is chilly, nothing is worse than cold toes. So wearing boots is essential! I love a simple leather combat boot because it goes well with a lot of outfits, and is perfect for the fall weather. You can wear these with jeans, leggings, or just about any other tightly fitted pants.

Try these combat boots from Amazon Essentials. They are priced pretty well, and they are 100% synthetic. That means they are friendly for the vegetarians and vegans out there.

6. Wool Boot Socks

I mean, how do you expect your toes to stay warm without some fuzzy and warm socks? My favorite thing about boot socks is when they are long enough to peep over the top of the book. I love the small dimension and pop of color it adds to any outfit.

Amazon has a huge variety of options you can buy, including these wool boot socks. They come in a variety of colors, some with cute patterns on them as well.

The wonderful thing about fall fashion is that it can be worn into the winter months as well. If you are in a place the freezes during the winter, you will want a little more protection from the cold, especially on your feet. But a lot of these pieces can transfer into the winter season. Add a little different coloring if you want to be themed for winter, with more reds and blues. Or stick with neutral colors and you are all set with a closet full of winter fashion essentials.
