I've said it once, and I'll say it again: Fall is the best season for getting dressed. It's the time of year when I can finally live in my cozy sweaters and my favorite fall boots 24/7. Excited as I may be, actually putting together a great fall outfit is tricky now that I'm out of practice. Oh—and a few of my fall essentials look a little drab after sitting in a box all summer. That's why I scoured the sale sections at J.Crew, Madewell, and Everlane to fill in the gaps in my collection and style some seriously chic (and affordable) outfits.
I developed nine editor-approved ensembles inspired by the oh-so-trendy street-style set. My looks include the best fall jackets and coats alongside jeans that tap into the season's must-have denim trends. These finds are versatile and made to be mixed and matched. Grab a slip dress from one outfit formula and style it with a V-neck sweater or button-down from another. This season is all about mastering the layered look, and these pieces will help you get it right.
