Everything You Should Know About Fall Closet Makeover

Fall is officially here, and that always means that, as the weather changes, we start to see the clothing fabrics become cozier and thicker as the weather cools down, heading towards the colder months of the year.

Fall fashion is definitely the season for layers! Layering our late summer clothes can mean that we can keep wearing them while layering them with more suitable fall garments to create new outfits suited to windy days and cooler evenings.

The colors for fall fashion are excellent, and they allow your outfits to come away from the bright colors of summer with muted fall tones, including burnt oranges, khakis, and warm sunset tones.

You may also notice that styles of outfits change when fall arrives, and you may find pants, knits, and heavier cotton make more of an appearance in your fall wardrobe than they previously have during the summer.

Let’s look at some ways you can makeover your closet to make it appropriate and fashionable for fall 2021.

Fall Fashion

Bring out your cozy sweaters!

This fall, there will be so many people in layers of light sweaters.

Since we have learned from Sex and the City to layer up, there is no better way to start your fall wardrobe than with your favorite cozy sweaters.

Everyone has a different preference when it comes to sweaters, and we are sure you can find the right knit or fleece material depending on your style.

Suppose you travel often and need to look as put together as possible. In that case, a sweater or 3 could be the correct winter clothing staple for you to be stylish and warm in the ever-cooling weather!

For layering sweaters, we recommend one or 2 thicker knits. One with a high neck and one with a more casual V neck or boat neck as well as 2 more delicate knits that can be placed underneath work attire for warmth and style. Also, one with a roll-neck feature and one as an extra outer layer over blouses and shirts.

The perfect fall wardrobe will always have a maxi cardigan with a thick cable knit and decorative buttons for the ultimate evening fall style and warmth. This can be worn over an evening dress or a pantsuit and will look stylish, taking you from the office to the evening.

Fall Accessories

The arrival of fall calls for some amazing accessories.

Where summer can denote accessories of a more delicate appearance when fall arrives, there is the opportunity to get a little bolder with accessories, especially ones that can turn a fall outfit from sedate to wow!

Our top fall accessories are:

  • Boots – The fall season calls for some hard wearing footwear, but we don’t want it to be boring! So we are looking at ankle boots in a Chelsea boot style for comfort and practicality and over-the-knee styles of boots that can dress up any sweater dress, leggings, or evening outfit.

    Heels are optional, of course; just be cautious of your confidence in heels in potentially inclement weather!

  • Scarves – Not only are scarves practical for keeping the fall chill away, but they can also be incredibly fashionable when you look to get different prints to match your outfits. Think light knitted scarves or huge but thin chiffon-style scarves for extra layering and fall chic.
  • Hats and gloves – Of course, there may be times when it is so cold that only a hat and gloves will do! But we don’t have to compromise on style just to keep warm!

    Faux fur is superb for hats and gloves, and they can look incredible too, so think along the lines of leopard print, zebra print, or even just a deep black for the ultimate style and warmth!

Little to No Maintenance
