All signs point to fall, which means storing away your favorite summer clothing to make room for cozy sweaters, great denim, and stylish jackets.
Today I’m sharing the eight pieces that will serve as a great start to a ton of perfect-for-fall outfits to make this your most stylish season yet.
1. The Moto Jacket

No matter which fabric you choose, a moto jacket adds a textured piece of warmth — and an of-the-moment cool factor.
2. The Striped Top

Stripes add a bit of pattern while still remaining relatively neutral — a black-and-white number is an everyday blend of classy and sassy. Looking for even more ways to style them? Click here.
3. The Metallic Pleated Skirt

I’ve worn mine with fun sneakers and a fitted sweatshirt for running weekend errands, and then transformed the look with basic black pumps and fun accessories for girls’ night out.
4. Leather Leggings

I like to rock mine with sneakers and a sweater for the daytime, then switch to chunky booties or strappy heels for a night on the town. They’re super warm yet super sexy — solving the clothing crisis of what to wear on a night out when the weather’s cold.
5. The Fall Midi

6. The Over the Knee Boot

7. The Blazer

Menswear options and muted plaid versions are having a major moment this season. Style Tip: Don’t be afraid of pairing black and navy. It’s a classic color combination that reads luxurious and fashion-forward.
8. High-waist Straight-leg Denim

We all know the versatility of denim, but I especially love this silhouette because of its cool factor. Tuck tops in, wear them out, add pumps, wear flats — this shape works with virtually any outfit because of its classic lines and figure flattering shape.
