{Fashion Monday} Fall Fashion Basics

Fall Fashion Basics to me is a having these pieces of clothing in your Fall/Autumn wardrobe. Those who know me know I change-up my closet per season and declutter every 6 weeks. Changing up your closet doesn’t mean buying new items all the time. Most of the time is just means repurposing some clothes from summer to fit into fall by layering. Then clothes from winter might require removing the extra layer from insider.

For me personally I believe Fall Fashion Basics should be in every woman’s closet (not an expert on men’s closets). I believe in having certain basics throughout the year that can easily transition from season to season. I can guarantee 90% of you have the basics in your closet and wont need to purchase new clothes.

Fall Fashion Basics

Living in England, I am always kept on my toes in terms of the weather by being ready for any sudden changes. Because of our temperamental weather, you can accurately conclude us Brits are always ready at a moments notice. We don’t leave our homes without an umbrella and sometimes sunglasses because we know at any moment we might need them.

The following items are what I think are Fall Fashion Basics:

Scarf – Sometimes you don’t need warmer outwear but just a scarf. I know what when the weather is nippy but not too cold, by covering my neck I am able to preserve some heat and I stay warm enough.

Boots – In climates like the UK you definitely need to have some boots. I mentioned in my Autumn Must Have boots what types boots one should have for fall. Fall weather is between summer and winter, you want boots that are warm enough but wont have you sweating.

Sweater/Cardigan/Jumper – these are essential pieces to own. It’s not yet time to wear our thick winter coats and jackets, we still have some level of sunshine. But the sunshine is not enough to walk around with bare arms hence the Sweater/Cardigan/Jumper.

Though I rarely wear gloves, they are very handy to have during fall and winter. Because I rarely used them, I rarely pack them in my handbag but do have them at home.

Finally a beanie, an essential item to have in the closet. Ladies, remember the hair you did all morning to walk out only for it to be ruined? Ya well, a beanie might save you some hassle.

What are some of your Fall Fashion Basics?

    I take all of these as my essentials as well especially in cold places. I really like that brown tone, it goes well with everything IMO and doesn’t try to stand out that much.

    I actually love everything you’ve included here. I’d wear it all, except the hat – not because I don’t like it, but because I always look like a bit of a twit in hats! 😉 x

    I’m a UK-er too and also never leave my house without these warm essentials. I’ve got a cold at the moment so I’m wearing every layer I can find haha. Lovely set of colours you’ve chosen that are perfect for autumn 🙂

    I also live in England and I never leave my home without a scarf in autumn. Even if during the day the weather might be mild, in the morning and in the evening it’s necessary and it looks good too.

    Concise, but on point! I have finally accepted that Summer has come to an end and I need to break out some items. Just this past weekend I’ve had to wear a scarf and some booties. Sigh. The good thing is I can finally binge out on dark lips and nails again.

    I honestly think you have the most fabulous taste, you always see to choose the sort of items I would love. My favourites here are the boots, gloves, hat, top and cardi 😉

    I love scarves, and they make a great accessory as you can combine them with so many outfits. Fall is a great time to experiment with new accessories and clothes.

    The beanie and the boots are so awesome along with the sweater. I am going to have to check these out for sure. Scarfs are something I have just started wearing last year too. Thanks for sharing the tips and items.

    Those clothes are soo freaking cute. In Phoenix, AZ we only have 2 types of weather. Hotter than hell, and mild. Unfortunately I rarely have the chance to break out the sweaters or the beanies. But if I ever go to England, I will definitely remember the scarf and umbrella.

    Fall really is my favorite season. I love the style selection you shared it, perfect for Fall. I think neutral colors in Fall, but by far am not a fashion guru.

    I love fall. Today while driving to work I was hoping that we should have 360 days of fall and 5 days of summer. 🙂

    I’d love to be able to wear hats! I love them, but look absolutely horrible in them! With that said, I love the outfit you shared!

    Lovely post! It’s nice to see a post that’s not just making me sad that I can’t afford things, but helping you utilise what you have already 🙂

    I need some sweaters. I live in a warm climate and we only actually need sweaters for a month or two but I don’t have any and think they’re so cute. I always end up in a t shirt with a hoodie. So not fashionable. I need to go shopping!

    I love this outfit! I need some nice fall clothes. Most of my stuff is really old and out of date! I might need to do a little shopping.

    I live in Upstate NY, so a good fall wardrobe is a must! I love these ideas, the styles and the colors. I think I need to accept that cold weather is really here!

    Nice stuff! I like the colors too. I always enjoy wearing sweaters during the fall. I should look into a beanie, although normally I look weird in hats.

    A warm knitted jumper and boots are a must for this time of year. I love the colours you have picked out definitely autumnal

    It’s finally cold enough for me to pull out my boots. I tend to have way too many, so I don’t think I’ll be purchasing any this season . . . except for that pair of short boots I saw a few days ago. 🙂 I love that you declutter your closet every six weeks. I need to start doing that.
