Fall is around the corner, and it is high time you revamp your wardrobe. Winter fashion is all about minimal designs and nude colors, which means you can style a few pieces in numerous ways.
If you are one of those people who struggles while reviving wardrobes at the onset of new seasons, fret not; I have got your back. Here, I have made a list of fall essentials you would need to survive this fall elegantly. Also, keep yourself updated with this year’s chicest fall fashion trends.
With these basic clothing items, you can style more than enough outfits to let you shine this season.
1 – Blazers
Blazers are a staple for your winter wardrobe. Blazer’s upgrade adds charm and glows not only to your outfit but also to your personality. Light, skin, rusty and nude colors are the best choice for winter. Whether you wear it as a top or add it to your winter layering, it will look elegant either way. Blazers come in various styles, fabrics, and patterns.
Faux Leather
You can never go wrong with leather. Try adding a faux leather blazer to your wardrobe and choose a color that goes with most outfits, such as black or brown.
Sweater Blazer
Handwoven, vintage sweater-style blazers are back in trend. They give you a classy look and the comfort of a sweater in the stylish look of a blazer.
Plaid Blazer
Wear any t-shirt or simple jeans with sneakers and pair it with a plaid blazer. This plaid blazer will prove a lifesaver when styling formal or semi-formal outfits if you are a working woman.
Double-breasted Blazers
They have two rows of buttons and are best to wear with skirt-suit, shift dresses, and pants. You can go for a blazer with a gold chain and big, prominent buttons to add some finishing and uniqueness.
2 – Turtlenecks
Turtlenecks are the perfect example of ageless fashion. If you are looking forward to adding versatile clothing items to your winter wardrobe, you must consider turtlenecks. Use neutral colors like white, black, brown, grey, etc., because any combination will go well with them. They are cozy, keep you warm, and are super comfortable.
Here are some options that you can consider when shopping for turtlenecks.
Mock Style
It has a lower collar covering most of the neck, which doesn’t have folds. If you get irritated by lots of layers of fabric and folding, then go for this turtleneck.
Cowl Style
That one is more comforting and relaxing than the typical ones, and they are now the most trending. Make sure you choose a nude color so you can style it freely.
Funnel Turtleneck
As the name suggests, they are funnel-like, slightly wide at the top end. Its neck is an extension of the sweater, not an extra or separate piece. Go for it if your face shape is diamond or oval.
3 – Hats
Hats look super cool and keep you warm, besides serving as a chic accessory. It’s a perfect option if you are usually unsatisfied with your look and feel something is missing from your outfits. You can wear true classics or break-out designs, anyone you fancy.
To swiftly change your looks, adopt styles like a beanie (the cap that fits your head like a dinky), beret, fedora, or Panama. You can also go for a pompom in bold colors. Fall outfits seem incomplete without a finishing touch-up top, and stylish woolen hats in nude, white, reddish-orange, or sky colors are a perfect final touch-up.
Beanie
Try a casual look this fall season with a beanie that will add warmth. You can style it with a hoodie, sweatshirt, zip-up hoodie, or denim jacket.
Beret
Adding a beret as a finishing touch is a chic way to modernize your outfit. Try a monochrome look with a black sweater shirt, jeans, and long boots.
Fedora
Fedora is making a comeback this season, so don’t miss it. Style it with long coats, oversized cashmere sweaters, and trench coats for a trendy look.
Panama
With its crisp days, fall is perfect for wearing a Panama hat. You can pair it with a neutral cowl style turtleneck, checkered coat, and black trousers for a chic look.
4 – Denim
Denim never gets old. This winter, add a cool pair of denim jeans to your wardrobe, and you will be surprised by the number of ways you can style them. From flared denim jeans to skinny jeans, no matter whatever is your type, a denim pair is a must-have for your fall wardrobe.
You can pair them with nude-shade tops or add a pop of color, as per your preference. Also, you can add a denim jacket to your wardrobe if you are a fan of funky and chic looks.
5 – Leather Legging
Leggings are primary for a fall wardrobe. Leggings are great, but leather can quickly upgrade your fashion game. You can go for Spanx or Commando leather leggings. Commando leather leggings have a grainy texture, while Spanx leggings have a shiny look. Style them with sneakers, glasses, and a sweater for a casual winter look. You are all ready for a late evening promenade.
6 – Boots
It is the most important part of your fall wardrobe as shoes are usually considered to reveal a person’s artistic sense and taste. Your fall closet will be incomplete without joggers, sneakers, long boots, and boots.
Though winter shoewear offers a lot of variety, boots can make every outfit look perfect. You can find a plethora of designs when it comes to boots. However, for your fall wardrobe, go with subtle and nude shades.
You can go for both ankle boots or over-the-knee boots. Try different heel types like block or stiletto, and select the one that offers comfort.
A Pro Tip; Layering Is The Key To Styling Fall Outfits
If you know how to layer your winter essentials, you will surely have fun mixing and matching outfits. On the other hand, if you don’t pay attention to layering, you will end up in the same mess every day – “What should I wear today?” “Oh! I have nothing to wear!”
Layering is an art. Make sure you have classic tops to layer under cardigans and coats. Also, try to keep primary colors in your wardrobe, as they can be of great help when layering outfits. You must have a black, brown, and white sleeveless top, a full-sleeve shirt, and a white/black/brown button-down shirt. With these primary colors, you can pair different sweaters and coats and create new looks daily.
