These Cool-Girl Fall Outfits Scream "Good Taste"

It’s official — the evenings are getting chillier, the leaves are starting to turn, the Gilmore Girls are entering their defrost: fall is upon us. As devastated as we are to say goodbye to summer, as fashion editors, we look forward to the season of fall dressing. Think: cozy knits, creative layering, knee-high boots with shorts or skirts… our closets are our oysters. This season, we’re already seeing several trends take over our social feeds, like suede jackets (no surprise there), rugby shirts, baggy jeans, and plaid. With those in mind, we put together several different fall outfits, whether you’re headed to work or to peep some leaves. Ahead, shop some of our favorite pieces of the season (so far!). Office Siren A blazer is a surefire way to elevate an outfit, and Zara always has a plethora of high-quality options at a competitive price. We paired a chocolate brown option with baggy jeans, a classic white tee, and suede kitten heel slingbacks. Weekend Errands Checking off your weekend task list isn't always the most fun, so why not dress up for occasion to make it a little more enjoyable. Here, we’re pairing a buzzy suede jacket with baggy jeans, a graphic tee, and loafers (we’re going to see a lot of these this season, so you might as well stock up now). A Night Out Hailey Bieber is the queen of simple yet sexy going-out 'fits, so we modeled this look after something we see the beauty mogul wear time and time again: an oversized leather bomber, a mini skirt (or here, a skort), and kitten heels. We also added a lace-trim camisole to call back to the summer trend we’re sure will still be hot this fall. Best Dressed Wedding Guest Fall wedding guest dresses don’t need to involve sleeves — we love the taupe-olive, shimmery hue of this Bec + Bridge dress, perfect for echoing the tones of autumn foliage. Throw on a blazer or cape shawl for more frigid weather. Daytripping Dôen always nails fall dressing — case in point: this plaid silk dress that transitions seamlessly from day to night. Styled with a chore jacket, it takes on a more casual, effortless edge. We added some classic tall black knee-high boots and trendy oval Le Specs sunglasses for foolproof accessorizing. Game Day Whether you’re a sports fan or not, a tailgate or watch party at home with friends are sure to be a good time, especially when delicious snacks are involved. Here, we styled around a rugby shirt (we’re seeing these everywhere), paired with baggy chinos and classically cool Sambas. For a finishing touch, a Polo Ralph Lauren baseball cap completes the vintage sporty vibe. Apple Picking Quilted jackets are a nice lightweight way to keep warm this fall, and we love this cute gingham option paired with horseshoe leg overalls. Finish it off with some Hunter wellies, and you’re primed for all apple orchard activities.
