Every season has fun activities to look forward to. In the spring, I always enjoy taking walks to admire the emerging flowers. In the summer, I love dreaming about picnics in the park and getting ice cream. Winter? Well, I don’t love winter all that much. But fall… now this season has some pretty amazing things to offer, like cozy movie nights and making yummy soups. Mhmm. If you have some of these activities on your calendar this season and are wondering what to wear, read on!
1. For Bookstore Trips to Stock Up on New Reads for Cozy Nights In
jeans | tee | shoes | bag | vest
I’m a big believer in reading year-round, but when the weather turns a little chilly, and you have a pumpkin-scented candle burning, well… that’s peak reading season. Channel those cozy literary vibes in your outfit with a sweater vest and loafers as you head to your local library or favorite bookstore to stock up on new reads!
2. For a Lunch Date at the Classy New Patio
jeans | shoes | bag | belt | jacket
Yes, the inspiration photo is Paris – because nothing says “classy” to me quite like Paris. But whether you’re actually having lunch in Paris or simply dreaming about it, a tweed lady jacket is the perfect piece for instantly adding an elegant, timeless touch to your outfit. To keep the look approachable for a daytime meal, pair it with jeans to dress it down while still achieving that effortlessly chic vibe.
3. For an Autumn-Themed Movie Marathon on a Cozy Weekend
Why not romanticize your movie nights with a chic (yet comfy) outfit? Silk or satin pants paired with a coordinating top instantly make you feel more put together for a weekend binge-watch. Cozy cashmere socks and an oversized cardigan bring all the cozy vibes, making it the perfect outfit to snuggle up in with a hot apple cider and Gilmore Girls.
4. For a Picturesque Weekend Drive to See the Changing Foliage
sweater | hat | bag | shoes | jeans | jacket
If your weekend finds you getting out instead of staying in, then building an exploring outfit around jeans and a barn jacket is a great place to start. A cozy sweater makes the perfect middle layer – after all, it is sweater weather. Lean into the casual weekend vibe with a baseball cap, tote bag, and suede boat shoes. Now you’re ready to hit the road and enjoy the changing leaves!
5. For Picking Up Freshly Baked Goods From the Local Bakery
skirt | bag | flats | coat | sweater
You may not be in Paris picking up baked goods, but you can certainly dress like it. Romanticize your local bakery trip with a black skirt and a stylish sweater shirt combo (yes, they’re everywhere right now!). A mac coat is the perfect topper for this classic outfit, while black flats add a simple yet classy touch. If the weather is chilly, you can always slip on a pair of sheer tights for extra warmth.
6. For An Afternoon Spent Apple Picking
shorts | bag | jacket | scarf | boots
Whether you’re visiting a pumpkin patch or going apple picking, it’s so much fun enjoying all the festive fall activities. And why not have some fun with your outfit? Tall boots are great for navigating farm terrain and look stylish paired with brown gingham shorts. A barn chore jacket is ideal for creating that casual, rustic look. For the finishing touches, a wicker bag adds texture (and practicality), while a pop of red in a scarf is just plain cute!
7. For a Girl’s Trip to the Big City
shoes | pants | jacket | bag | sunglasses
If you finagled a weekend getaway for a girls’ trip to the big city, let your outfit match the city vibe. Something a little trendy and a little fun – like this black capri outfit – is perfect if the weather isn’t too chilly yet. A structured top-handle bag, kitten heels, and oval sunglasses add a stylish, trendy touch, while the gingham jacket brings in that perfect hint of fall!
