MY 7 STAPLE PIECES FOR FALL
I love fall so much. It is my favorite season because of its gloomy weather! I love how we move from tank tops and sandals to leather jackets and boots, all due to the change in the weather. Grey skies, some breeze all around and falling leaves, is my kind of pretty. I love the color palette of this season as it revolves around brown, grey, burgundy and forest green; all amazing colors. Based on this palette, I have a 7 staple pieces list for this season, that I will share with you guys. These are all pieces I can’t go without; they are perfect for transitioning from warmth to cold. They are versatile and easy to mix and match thus creating many different looks.
- Grey woolen coat from ZARA
What more necessary in a cold weather than a coat? I absolutely love coats. They are keeping you warm but also they are a very elegant piece in your wardrobe. Wearing a casual outfit and adding a coat on top, is my fall-winter go-to look. Although I have many coats of different colors, my favorite this year is my new light grey Zara coat. I always wanted a grey one as it’s one of my favorite colors ever, but somehow it was hard to find the perfect one. When I saw this one I fell in love. It is a pretty light shade and has a flattering fit. A coat is a staple piece in your closet as it is big enough to catch the eye and it completes every look.
- Brick red jumper from H&M
Another item perfect for the colder weather, is the good ol’ jumper. I love loose fit jumpers, as they create an effortless casual look for every day. They look good with jeans and skirts and they are easy to combine. I have many jumpers but none in a brick-red shade. I fell in love with this color as I find it very flattering on me and it is the basic color of autumn. It goes pretty well with my grey coat (mentioned above) as well as with my navy blue and khaki ones. It is long and baggy which makes it more comfortable and it is very warm. A nice jumper in a hot shade is another staple piece for this season!
- A-line denim skirt from ASOS
As I mentioned in another post, the A-line skirt is one of the hottest pieces of this season. It channels a 70’s boho vibe. I absolutely love this denim A-line skirt from ASOS, because it is very flattering for my curvy shape. I love how it makes me feel sexy and feminine. You can dress it up or down with heels or flats plus it goes well with the thigh high boots I got from ASOS and public desire (see post). Because it is denim it’s easier to combine it with anything of any color. Although I am a jeans kinda girl, I love wearing a skirt every now and then for a girlier look.
- Black jeans from ASOS
I am in love with those jeans! Since blue denim is quite a classic piece, I thought it would be cool this season to replace it with a black one. Black is also a staple color but not as mainstream as blue. However, black jeans are very elegant, figure flattering and perfect for a day-to-night look. This one specifically is very cool because it has the lace up detail on the bottom which makes it sexy and less ordinary. Pair it up with flats or heels, with jumpers or sheer shirts, with coats or leather jackets, this black pair of jeans is perfect for fall and winter. A must have a piece for any closet!
- Thigh high boots from ASOS
You guys know by now my love for thigh high boots. As mentioned in another post, I believe they are the perfect shoe for fall, as they are sexy, feminine and flattering, because they slim down the legs and elongate them. I can’t praise these ASOS suede thigh high boots enough. They have flat heels so they are easy to walk around in all day long but that doesn’t mean they can’t be worn in a night outfit. They make any look very elegant! Now if you guys are not into high boots, I believe a pair of ankle boots is an amazing alternative. Chelsea boots are very lovely, casual and comfy and they could be a staple of your fall-winter wardrobe.
- Green saddle bag from ZARA
Saddle purses are very hot right now. They are easy to wear and give a casual and sporty vibe. They have the perfect size for day and night use. Taking a look at my winter bags I realized that 90% of them are black. And it makes sense, as black is an all time classic and goes well with everything. However, I wanted to add some color on my collection of bags and this ZARA forest green one looks amazing. This color represents fall and is as easy to combine as black. As a matter of fact, my favorite combination is wearing it with powdery pink colors or grey. Forest green is a lovely wintery color and saddle bags are a huge trend right now because of their 70’s boho vibe.
7. Brown longline blazer from ZARA
I absolutely love that blazer! I believe that a long-line blazer is a great alternative to a coat for those not too cold days. It’s very comfortable and soft because it is cotton and not wool, but it will still warm you up a little bit. The color is amazing as brown is a perfect shade for fall and it is so easy to match with everything. It is a versatile piece you can wear casually when going out for lunch or coffee but also at night with a cute dress or skirt. Zara has literally outdone itself this year guys; I am in love with almost everything. Having an outwear piece for the warmer days of fall is quite important and a blazer like that is perfect for your staples collection.
Fall is the season where the weather is neither too hot nor too cold. Therefore, there is a need for a basic wardrobe that helps the transition from summer to winter. These 7 staple pieces are perfect for fall as they can be easily combined in order to create many looks and they represent the season’s color palette.
