Fall Capsule Wardrobe 2021 Outfits

After getting a rundown of autumn’s trends, let’s pick some runway hits that have made their way into mainstream and online stores this season.

Starting with tops, a white shirt is always a staple. This season, both plain white and graphic print shirts are popular. Bold florals are also in, making them perfect for updating your favorite jeans or pants. Look for tops in autumnal shades and metallics too, as gold and silver are very trendy for both clothing and accessories.

For sweaters and cardigans, styles like off-the-shoulder or one-shoulder are very much in. Sweater vests are also back, and they look great over a white shirt. Ponchos and wraps are a good choice too, especially in key colors like navy with fringe details.

Jackets and coats are key for fall. Quilted styles are currently in vogue. Moto jackets and trench coats are also trendy, so consider these for your autumn closet.

When it comes to jeans and pants, with cooler weather, you might opt to wear more pants and jeans, or add leggings under skirts and dresses. Wide-leg pants are more fashionable than skinnies this season. Dig out your bootcut jeans or invest in new wide-leg pants in trendy colors, like green.

For dresses and skirts, midi dresses, sweater dresses, and bias-cut skirts in silk or satin are significant trends. Pair midi dresses with knee-high boots as it gets cooler, and you can dress skirts up or down with sweaters or pretty tops.

Shoes and boots are essential for completing fall outfits. This season, look for classic knee-high boots, floral pattern boots, metallic shoes, and platforms. Printed boots can stand out if the rest of your outfit is kept simple.

Accessories are vital for elevating any outfit. Gold accessories are popular this season, and the right shoulder bag or a pair of hoop earrings can make a big difference.
