While I'm not ready for cooler weather yet, I am totally ready for fall fashion! Fall is definitely my favorite season for dressing. I love boots and jackets, so it's really perfect for my style. Summer was pretty much a bust for me as far as my style goes. I just had a baby at the end of June and none of my summer stuff fit me. I bought a couple of basic pieces to just get me by, but now that most of my clothes are fitting I am super excited to start putting together outfits from pieces I already own and adding a couple of new ones. I wanted to share with you my staples for what I am going to be wearing this fall and probably winter as well. Since I wear a lot of black, I am going to try to incorporate more blue denim, white shoes and cream or white tops. I have been really liking that look lately, but I am sure I will resort back to my usual all black outfit occasionally. I feel like I share this with almost every fashion post, but I LOVE neutrals. I love that between all of these pieces I can mix and match so many different outfits with them and get the most with the least amount of items! Keep that in mind when you are shopping :) I have links to all of my favorite picks below!!!
The first staple is a backpack purse. Especially since I am a mom now, this is even more convenient. Lugging around a carseat pretty much narrows it down to a cross body bag or a backpack for me. Having your hands free is major key! I have a gift card to Nordstrom Rack and I am dying for the French Connection ones! Backpacks just make your outfit look that much cooler!
Next, I am still loving the mom jean trend. I just feel like they make your outfit more fashion-forward than a regular skinny jean. Although, I will never get sick of black skinny jeans! This would be such a good one to find at a thrift store, since this style of jean has been around for years. I love the Target ones (advertised as a straight leg) and the American Eagle distressed mom jeans (I own both of these pairs and they are pictured above!).
I have always been a big fan of leather leggings! They are so comfy if you get the right pair. I personally don't own the Spanx ones, but every blogger raves about them! They have a pair of similar ones at Target that are Assets by Spanx and only the front is leather, which may be more flattering. I have the Wild Fable ones (also pictured above). They are more of a liquid legging rather than faux leather, but really high waisted and only $16 for someone who just wants to try out the look and keep it inexpensive.
This is one of my favorite trends that has been going on for the last year or so. I have a pair of off-white booties from Target that I love (pictured above and listed on my Love List). They are a more tamed down version of white booties, but I just ordered a buckled flat pair from Boohoo and I cannot wait to rock them! They brighten up your outfit and just give it that cool-girl vibe.
I love a good beige or camel jacket. It's so classic, timeless and can be worn over literally anything. Plain white tee, turtle neck, dress, etc. This might be an item worth splurging on. I love the lighter color and if you have a shedding German Shepherd like myself, this color will come in handy.
Neutral colored tops will be in my rotation of fall outfits because A. they are pretty much all I own and B. you can wear them under everything and are so easy to mix and match. My clothes are almost always budget-friendly, but even more so with this staple. I bought that cream off-the-shoulder sweater at Plato's Closet for $6, the muted rust color tee from Plato's for $6, white tee from Target $4, pretty much all either clearance items or thrifted! You don't have to break the bank, get creative!
I think white sneakers are a good staple for year round fashion. I have had this pair for like 4 years from Target on clearance for $8 or so. I just use a Magic Eraser to clean them up every so often and they look brand new! I love how they make your outfit look a little more laid back and tomboyish.
