I know my closet needs a refresh when I find myself dreading going to events because I have no idea what to wear. If I, someone who literally thrives on getting ready for something, wish I could show up in leggings and a hoodie, my wardrobe is probably looking a bit bleak. Now that fall’s here, I’m struggling to build looks because I can’t just rely on tank tops and shorts to get me by. Enter: statement jackets, really good denim, and on-trend pieces to mix and match.
Plus, you can pick them up at your local CVS right now!
I’ve done a deep dive on the internet looking for the best plus-size fall clothes, and as much as I want to gatekeep my finds, I’m selflessly sharing all the picks I have my eye on.
Trend: Leather
If you're drooling over leather pants this season like us, opt for an unexpected color like this dark green. You can wear it just as much as a black pair, but you'll look 10x cooler.
Basics: Denim
An ankle-length straight leg jean is arguably the most flattering jean on the market—I don't make the rules. It makes your legs look longer, and every butt looks good in a high-waisted, light-wash denim. We love the rigid-yet-comfortable fabric of these because they hold their shape all day long.

Trend: Shackets
Basics: Cozy Knits
Trend: Back to Office
A button-down will drastically increase the versatility of your closet. Wear it on its own, under sweatshirts, or over your summer tanks. In that case, maybe purchase a backup as well.
Basics: Coats and Jackets
Everyone needs a cozy, throw-over jacket they can grab for errands when they're just running out the door, but it doesn't need to skimp on the details. The leather trim makes this look expensive and chic.
Basics: Fall Dresses
A sweater dress will round out your closet because it's so versatile. Pair with booties and tights, sneakers and a jacket, or heels and a nice bag.
