Fall is officially here, and with the cooler temperatures, I’ve been on the lookout for versatile accessories and layering pieces that can easily transition through the season. This fall, some of the standout trends include vests, denim, suede, and leopard prints. While I’m mindful of not falling into the trap of fleeting trends, I believe these pieces have timeless appeal and can become staples in any wardrobe.

Vests, for example, are incredibly versatile. Whether you opt for a classic tailored style or a cozy knit, they’re perfect for layering over shirts, dresses, or even lightweight sweaters. Denim, of course, never goes out of style, but this season I’m seeing fresh takes on denim jackets, oversized fits, and even full denim ensembles. Suede adds an earthy, textured feel to any look, making it ideal for fall’s rich color palette. Finally, leopard print, while bold, has a certain staying power and an accessory is an easy way to incorporate the print.

The beauty of these pieces lies in their ability to mix and match with existing wardrobe essentials, making them practical investments rather than impulsive buys. I always aim to curate a closet filled with items that not only reflect my personal style but that I know I’ll reach for year after year. These fall picks, when chosen carefully, can truly stand the test of time. You can shop all my selects here!
