My Fall Essentials

Here are some of my favorite items from my closet for the FALL SEASON!


I got this sweater last Christmas and I am OBSESSED with it. I have gotten a lot of compliments on it this fall so far and who doesn't love compliments?!?! It makes me feel like I'm curled up in a cozy cocoon all day and I LOVE IT.

Price: Under $40
 If you haven't heard of this website before GO CHECK IT OUT NOW! It's an amazing site for cheap trendy clothes and if you're a college student like me, that is all that matters. 



I have recently fallen in love with Old Navy, which is where I got this chambray dress. It is a great dress year-round I think (I wore it for Easter) and is great to pair with tights/a scarf/cute boots. It's also great for layering.

Old Navy always has AMAZING sales, I am constantly getting emails about deals both in-store and online. Definitely worth checking out on a shopping trip.

From: Old Navy
Price: Around $30



Another great find from Old Navy. Everyone needs a Chambray button down in their closet to pair with black skinnies or colored jeans. This shirt is a bit of a different shade from the typical chambray shirt, but they also have those at Old Navy.

From: Old Navy
Price: $25-30


This scarf is definitely a staple of my fall wardrobe.. I mean, it goes with everything. I have paired it with basically everything else in this list.. and it SPARKLES, if you don't like a little sparkle you are doing something wrong!

From: Express (a few years ago.. but I am pretty sure they still sell it, or one similar.
Price: $30
Their stuff runs a bit expensive, I would suggest buying it on sale like I did :)


This is literally my favorite piece of clothing. I wear is ALL THE TIME. I bought it on clearance like 4 years ago at American Eagle and it has withstood the test of time and is still in style (I actually feel like it's more in style now than when I bought it). It is just a light weight layer that goes with a lot. Perfect for Fall. I'm actually pretty sure they started carrying something very similar to this at American Eagle again.

From: American Eagle
Price: I have no idea, I bought it forever ago.


When you find an adorable (faux) leather jacket in the store for only $15, you cannot pass it up. I had been looking for a cute cheap motorcycle-like jacket for a while and Forever 21 did not disappoint. It makes me feel way more badass than I really am.. but it's nice to feel like you could take on the world.

From: Forever 21
Price: $15 (!!!)


These boots are my obsession. I saw them at DSW and decided I didn't need them, after months of thinking about them, I decided I DID need them. I found them online for cheaper and scooped them right up! They are perfect for every occasion (maybe not every occasion..) and they are REALLY comfy! 

From: GoJane.com
Price: $40


I had searched and searched for a maxi-skirt that was long enough for me (being 5'10'', all of them hit me at the awkward mid-ankle). This skirt was actually an empire waist dress that I just snipped right at the elastic waist. That made it long enough for me to wear a little high waisted. It is so comfortable and feels like you're wearing a cozy jersey-knit blanket all day. Given that this was a dress that my sister gave me that I made a few... alterations to, I have no idea where it is from or how much it cost.


I would never survive Fall (or Winter) without these items!
