Hello, my beautiful autumn leaves! I'm a little behind on my autumn blog posts, but that's because I wanted to make sure that the seasonal content I'm bringing you is of the highest quality. I hope that's alright with ya'll!
My first fall-themed blog post of the year is my autumnal lookbook. As I've said many times before, fashion is not my area of expertise. During the autumn and winter months, however, my outfits feel a bit more cohesive and I feel a lot more confident. That's all that matters, right?!
Without further ado, here is some fashion inspiration for a day at the pumpkin patch or a night around the campfire!
The yellow H&M sweater has endured the test of time and lives to see another season! This bright, textured sweater is great for making a statement, especially if you're too lazy to put thought into the rest of your outfit. You could put a collared shirt on underneath for a smarter look, or pair it with black belt and boots for an edgier vibe.
You can never have enough sweaters, am I right? This khaki-green number is also from H&M (as are most of my sweaters this season), and the pinstriped jeans are from PacSun in the Vintage Icon fit. With an outfit like this with multiple textures and patterns, I would definitely stick to smooth fabrics and solid colors when it comes to any additional pieces. This sweater is more cropped than most sweaters, making it a great piece to pair with high-waisted pants, and less bulky if you wish to tuck the sweater into them.
Yes, pinstripes!
Please ignore the blurriness of this picture! This outfit is a more subtle take on seasonal fashion. I decided to go for a neutral outfit and bring the autumn through the accessories. I got this shirt for $5 at Target and I paired it with some casual, ripped jeans. The star of this show is this colorful scarf I got from a random booth at Summerfest. I felt like the combination of gold, orange, and plum make it the perfect autumnal accessory, and the muted blue ties it in wonderfully with jeans or a denim jacket.
Look familiar?! All I did to the outfit above was lose the scarf and chuck on a colorful flannel from Vans. I tied a knot in my $5 Target shirt and kept on my Vintage Icon PacSun jeans. I absolutely LOVE this outfit. It's the most casual out of the five outfits, and it's pretty hard not to look, or feel, great in it. You could wear this to the pumpkin patch, in the apple orchard, or on a crisp, autumn hike. This outfit is practical enough for any of your autumn activities!
Here's a better picture showcasing the colors featured in the flannel. It's kind of a cross between a rainbow and all of my favorite autumnal colors!
The final item of my autumnal lookbook is this fine number from Target! The shape and pattern of this dress is unlike anything you would find in my closet. I have no other article of clothing like this. This dress doesn't exactly scream autumn, but I feel like the deep red color along with the muted yellows and greens make it more suitable for autumn than for summer. The dark lip also helps! If you paired this dress with a (faux) black leather jacket and some chunky boots, you'd be a heartbreaker.
Although the front of the dress is pretty, my favorite feature is the open back! I couldn't get a clear picture, but you get the jist.
That's it for this year's autumnal lookbook! I hope you guys are enjoying the autumn season and making the most out of this beautiful weather!
Until next time,
