Fall always arrives like a reset. The air sharpens, and suddenly the clothes we reach for carry a different kind of weight. Summer may sparkle, but fall is the season of substance - sculptural coats, tailored trousers, layered textures, and accessories that define an entire silhouette.
Over time, I’ve stripped my fall wardrobe back to its essentials - not trends, but pieces that endure. Classics with longevity, elevated by detail and proportion, that feel as relevant now as they will seasons from now.
The true investment, for me, lies in outerwear, shoes, and accessories - the elements that anchor everything else. Each must earn its place, measured not only by quality but by how seamlessly it integrates into daily life. Cost per wear isn’t just a rule; it’s a philosophy.
This season’s edit was born from both discipline and inspiration: the ritual of my quarterly wardrobe purge, tempered by the imagery that lingers after NYFW, by pages turned in magazines, by mood boards built in the corners of Pinterest and social media alike. Below is my FALL 2025 shopping list; a curated selection of pieces with options within each category.
Funnel Neck Bomber Jacket / The season’s must-have silhouette. High-neck and sculptural, it transforms even the simplest outfit - leather for drama, knit for refined ease.
Budget friendly option, a personal favorite, splurge item (more sizes here), a knit option, a show stopper.
Rugby Striped Tops / Stripes get a grown-up reboot. Perfect with cargos and boots, they turn casual staples into curated looks.
Tee shirt, a personal favorite, a knit option, a splurge option.
Corduroy Pants / Autumn in fabric form. Slightly slouchy and textured, they lend cozy refinement to everyday dressing. Pair back to an oversized knit for the coziest look.
A personal favorite, a great fit, a western option, & neutral option.
Argyle Sweaters / Preppy with a chic edge. Great with trousers for a seamless desk-to-dinner look.
A classic take, a personal favorite, budget friendly option, something dressier, splurge item.
Vest Cuts / Sleeveless v-necks return polished and precise. Wear solo or layered, grounded with denim and loafers.
A knit option & a jersey option (a personal favorite).
Collar Necklaces / A look I am quite fond of & done best here & here.
3/4 Sleeve Turtleneck / A true ’90s nod - ideally paired with a mid-length skirt for effortless minimalism.
A personal favorite, a part of a full look, not a ttn but works, a classic take.
Suede Brown Jackets / Rich, tactile, and unmistakably fall. Adds instant dimension to everything from dresses to denim (dark denim would be my first option).
Already purchased this one, a classic take, a lovely shade of brown, budget friendly option, a splurge option (more sizes here), & a personal favorite.
Capri Leggings / Cropped, sleek, and endlessly versatile - the weight on this pair for fall is elite.
Pointed Toe Shoes / The ultimate finishing touch. Sharp, elongating, and endlessly chic - from jeans to tailored trousers.
A personal favorite, budget friendly option, a classic take, this color/fabric.
Lace Detailing / Intricate and intentional. Feminine yet modern - try layered under a funnel neck bomber jacket for contrast.
A personal favorite & a staple.
Leather Blazers / A wardrobe cornerstone. Adds authority and polish to layered or minimal looks alike - currently in my cart.
Gingham & Flannel / Patterned but understated. Checks offer texture and interest without ever feeling rigid, ideal for layering or relaxed styling.
Easiest to style option, a great blazer, the ultimate accessory, a classic take, would thrive with boots, a personal favorite.
Simple. Intentional. Fall.
