Fall Refresh: Tips to Inspire Your Cool-Weather Closet
Think effortless dresses, must-have jackets, base layers, vegan leather and flared denim.
When it comes to balancing comfort and style, fall is arguably the best season in fashion. From earthy florals and rich textures to feminine embellishments and autumnal hues, the wardrobe options are endless. Luckily, we’re here to help you find the most wearable looks to keep on high rotation throughout the next few months.
1. DAY DRESS obsessed
Add maximum coziness to a fit-and-flare silhouette by pairing it with lush suede boots. Amp up your look with a buttery soft shoulder bag, stacked cuff bracelets and thick hoop earrings.
Insider tip: Choose a dress you can style just as easily with open-toe sandals for a more formal approach.
2. Experience the Beauty of BOUCLÉ
As temperatures cool, we find ourselves reaching for that perfect outer layer. Timeless and chic, bouclé is ideal when you want an item that feels cozy and put together. Go for a monochromatic moment with a red jacket and pants combo. Looking for a more relaxed yet polished vibe? Flared jeans or straight-leg cargos are the perfect match for a luxuriously textured jacket with a super-soft feel.
3. ROSETTES & RUFFLES continue to reign
Floral embellishments add feminine flair to dresses and jumpsuits, while cascading ruffles offer a romantic touch to blouses and tops. Keep it classic in a black and white dress with a removable rosette or get spotted in a blouse with all the frills.
4. Choose your BASE LAYER
A mock neck top is the perfect base layer. Sport yours under a quilted jacket, shawl collar blazer or bouclé design. As for bottoms, go for wide-leg cargos, flared jeans or a pencil skirt.
Insider tip: A sleeveless satin blouse is another great piece to layer under a blazer, jacket or knit.
5. Go VEGAN (LEATHER)
Don’t be afraid to wear vegan leather from top to toe. Style a sleek pencil skirt and jacket with a cozy knit – such as the essential mock neck – the ultimate ensemble for the office or afterwork cocktails.
6. Dress in SHADES OF GREY
A fitted blazer in the key colour of the season is the epitome of versatility. Grey is a great alternative to the usual navy or black blazer and is lighter for that transition into fall. Pair yours with a matching satin blouse and high-waisted wide-leg pants for tone-on-tone perfection.
Insider tip: Maximize the styling potential of your blazer by wearing it with a pencil skirt or swapping your grey pants and satin blouse for black straight-leg jeans and an embellished button-down shirt.
7. Fall FLARE is in your jeans
Add width to your denim with a flared fit featuring a chic front slit. Pair a high-waisted design with a cropped jacket and pointed-toe slingback pumps to elongate your silhouette.
Insider tip: Trouser jeans are another great denim choice and look sublime with structured blazers and jackets alike.
8. Colour me RED
Go for a captivating all-red look with a vibrant pants and jacket combo or add a pop of this deep hue to your outfit with a cropped jacket or shawl collar blazer.
Insider tip: Don’t love the idea of going all in? Add a red accessory to any outfit for the ultimate splash of colour.
