Whenever I’m looking for a little creative inspiration, Pinterest is the perfect resource to find new ideas – whether it’s for the home, your wardrobe, or your cooking. The trick is not to just let these ideas gather dust on your carefully organized Pinterest boards! You get the most out of Pinterest when you actually bring your pins to life, with your own spin on them. If you’ve been browsing on the site this fall and come across an outfit idea you love, chances are it might be included in this post – this is how to recreate 11 fall style outfits based on trending Pinterest looks this season.
1. cardigan + white tee + white jeans + tote bag + watch + belt + flats

White pants deserve to be worn after Labor Day, and this look is proof! If you’ve ever wondered how you can style your favorite white jeans for the colder seasons, this is how. The key is to transition your white jeans to fall with the help of a few fall favorites. This way, your bright white pants don’t look out of place.
For the sake of this casual chic look, create a monochromatic base using your white jeans and a white t-shirt. The white tee is perfect for layering, especially under your knits. And speaking of sweaters, next you need to add a classic cardigan! A camel brown is the ideal shade for fall fashion. Then, continue your color scheme with your accessories. Don’t be afraid to play around with texture, either! A croc-embossed watch, smooth leather flats and a tote bag, and a calf-skin leopard print belt are the perfect finishing touches.
2. denim shirt + jeans + trench coat + earrings + red handbag + leopard flats

An all-denim look is an autumn staple – and this French girl has the perfect inspiration of how to wear it in real life. You can have fun mixing and matching denim, or go for a monochromatic look like she did! And if you want to add a feminine touch to the casual look, reach for a shirt with a bow at the neck. It’s a small detail, but it makes the outfit feel a little more elegant.
Navy and camel brown make for a chic fall color combination – and a trench coat is the perfect opportunity to pull off this pairing. As for shoes, leopard print flats are the perfect choice to carry on this color scheme! Then, if you need a pop of color, reach for a bright red handbag.
3. coat + cable knit sweater + jeans + crew socks + loafers + pearl earrings

Speaking of chic color combinations, gray and chocolate brown always look classy and elegant. This moody pairing embodies the idea of cool fall weather. The chocolate brown really warms up the vibe of the cool gray for a balanced combination.
If you’re trying to recreate popular Pinterest outfits this season, you’ll probably notice that texture is a big part of pulling these looks off! Even if you don’t have these exact pieces, try to choose ones that add some variation to your look with the help of different fabrics. It will elevate your outfit to a whole other level.
4. white button-up shirt + mini dress + tights + brown boots + neck scarf

For a fall day spent shopping, try this next look. A midi dress is the perfect place to start! Whether you go for a swing style or a sweater dress, a mini variation is ideal for layering when it comes to your fall looks. Plus, a short dress always looks chic when paired with sheer tights and tall boots.
To add a little more warmth on top, layer a white button-up shirt underneath your dress. It’s a preppy look that gives off a polished vibe to your overall ensemble. Add a silk neck scarf for a Parisian touch; it’s the perfect way to take your look from good to great.
5. blue button-up shirt + v-neck sweater + jeans + scarf + boat shoes + tote bag

If you love all of the layering opportunities that fall provides, you might already have this look saved on your own Pinterest board! Why does this outfit look so chic? To start, it relies on a pretty simple color palette. Blue is the base of this outfit, and monochromatic looks always make you look put-together. It also relies on a classic fall color scheme – blue and chocolate brown. The warm chocolate brown adds depth to the cool blue for a more balanced look!
There are also some fun textures incorporated into this styling idea. Denim, a cozy knit, a polished button-down, leather shoes, gold earrings, a silk neck scarf… they all complement each other well when paired together and make this look appear both interesting and intentional.
6. white button-up shirt + gray crewneck + overcoat + mini skirt + tights + tall boots

If you’re all about the cool, city chic vibes, this outfit might speak to you! It’s full of sleek textures and classic layers. And the best part? This is an easy one to recreate with your fall capsule wardrobe. Sometimes the basics really are best if you’re going for a classic look.
Speaking of basics, here are the ingredients you’ll need for this outfit: sheer tights, black boots, a mini skirt, a white button-down, and a crewneck sweater. A coat is an added bonus, especially if you live in a colder climate! You can mix and match color schemes depending on what you already own, but the combination above is a great mix to guide you.
7. sweater vest + white button-up shirt + jeans + belt + fisherman sandals

Pinterest is the perfect source of inspiration if you want to upgrade your casual fall looks. Although there will always be something tempting about a sweatshirt and leggings in the fall, if you want to take your autumn fashion to the next level, there are lots of great ideas on Pinterest to do just that.
I’m a lover of casual fall style myself, and I’m a big fan of the effortless, preppy vibe in this outfit idea. And if you’ve ever wondered about how to style the trendy barrel leg jean, this is how! On top, go for a layered look with a white button-down and sweater vest. Tucking the shirt in helps to highlight your waist and balance out the wider look of your pants. A belt further accentuates your natural shape for a flattering look! And if you live in a warm climate, reach for a pair of flats, or even fisherman sandals. This is the ideal look to try if you’re running errands because it’s as comfy as it is stylish.
8. button-up shirt + blazer + mini skirt + tall boots + sheer tights + tote bag

Dakota Johnson might just be my favorite celebrity to follow for fall outfit inspiration. She has an effortlessly cool vibe with outfits that are a satisfying blend of elevated and casual. Dakota always looks put-together, but sticks to classic, somewhat low-key outfit staples when she creates her street style looks. Even her movie characters often share a similar style, as you can see above!
Chances are, you’ve also seen her fall outfit ideas floating around Pinterest. You might even have a few saved already to your fall style boards! This look is the perfect balance of business and pleasure. And if you want to make it a little more modest to wear into the office, just swap out the black mini skirt for a longer version.
9. button-up shirt + barn jacket + jeans + hoops + tote bag + ballet flats
flats | bag | jeans | shirt | jacket | earrings
A crisp button-down is a popular layering tool in these Pinterest outfits – and when you want to keep things casual, here’s how to style it! Pair it with a barn jacket for an English countryside-inspired combination. It’s both posh and polished, without being too elegant for a casual day walking around the city. Classic denim and a tote bag are perfect accompaniments. And for the final touch, add a more elevated pair of shoes, like ballet flats.
10. cardigan + white t-shirt + jeans + flats + gold hoops + belt + handbag
shoes | jeans | bag | sunglasses | belt | sweater | t-shirt | earrings
Here’s another look from style inspo Dakota Johnson. This is probably one of her most-saved looks on Pinterest because it’s not overly complicated, but hits all the right style notes. The base is just a white t-shirt and jeans paired with a black cardigan, but it’s the fit and accessories that make this look! A suede belt, tortoiseshell sunglasses, a patent leather bag, and slingback heels add pattern and texture to the easy-to-recreate fall outfit formula.
11. red sweater + white shirt + trousers + watch + necklace + leopard flats
flats | bag | lipstick | pants | shirt | sweater | watch | necklace
Here at MCO, we’re always writing about how perfectly red and leopard print go together… so it makes sense that Pinterest users also take note of this classic fall combo! Red adds a bright, cheery pop to your neutral fall outfit ideas, and leopard print is the perfect way to incorporate pattern without overwhelming you. When styled with other classic fall staples like wool dress pants and a white button-up shirt, you have an instant outfit win for work or the weekend.
