1. Burgundy

If there’s one color to know (and shop for) this season, it’s burgundy. This ultra-deep red, also referred to as wine red or merlot, couldn’t be more appropriate for the fall, and looks amazing on anything from knitwear to outerwear.

Honorable mentions go to brown and navy blue, which are also big this season!

Burgundy Faux Leather Jacket

I’m drooling over this burgundy faux leather jacket with an oversized fit. Autumn is the season for jackets, and this one is a top pick, thanks to its burgundy hue and vintage vibe.

Wear it day to night: it’ll upgrade a basic white t-shirt and jeans during the daytime, and look just as cool with a mini dress and knee-high boots at night.

Burgundy Cropped Crew Neck Sweater

You can’t go wrong with burgundy knitwear — it just looks (and feels) so autumnal. This cropped crewneck sweater is the perfect shade of rich burgundy and makes for a great everyday piece that you’re sure to get plenty of wear out of this season.

Burgundy Faux Leather Notched Trench Coat

Look luxe in this wine-colored faux leather trench coat. It features notched lapels, a double-breasted construction, and a removable self-tie belt to cinch your waist. Its burgundy hue combined with its faux leather material gives off an ultra-chic vibe that’s sure to take your fall outfits up a notch.

2. Sportwear

Get sporty this season in clothing inspired by sports uniforms, from jerseys to athletic shorts and sneakers. If it could belong on the field, it should belong in your shopping cart! Plus, who doesn’t love a trend that embraces comfort? I know I do.

Scrunched Jersey-Inspired Top

Don’t have a favorite sports team to support? No worries! You don’t actually need to wear team clothing to achieve this fashion trend. There are plenty of team-inspired clothing that is just as cool, some even with a fashion twist, like this scrunched jersey-inspired top.

While at first glance it may look like a sports jersey, its fitted, ruched design gives it a fashion-forward update that’s guaranteed to score you style points.

Track Pants

Give your sweatpants a sporty update this season with some track-inspired pants. Side stripes are going to make all the difference, along with a wide-leg fit and elasticized waist.

3. Barn Jackets

Yes, barn jackets look exactly like their name suggests: outerwear that’s fit for a farmer. These jackets, which generally are cotton canvas material and feature contrasting short collars, are workwear-inspired and perfect for the fall — especially for any pumpkin patches or apple orchards you may be visiting this season!

Faux Leather Collar Oversized Cotton Jacket

This sand cotton jacket is made modern with its contrasting faux leather collar for a slight touch of edge. You can even wear it with athleisure pieces like flared leggings and sneakers for a relaxed, everyday look this fall.

Contrast Collar Oversized Barn Jacket

With a slightly darker, classic beige hue, this barn jacket features an oversized fit that adds to its androgynous look. Styled with denim and a trucker hat, this jacket will give you a relaxed look that you’ll be reaching for daily.

4. Leopard Print

Leopard print is still going strong this fall and continues to dominate pretty much all other prints. Embrace your wild side with this trend, which can easily be dressed up or down — leopard print has practically become a neutral at this point!

Low-Rise Leopard Print Carpenter Jeans

Leopard print? Check. Low-rise? Check. Baggy fit? Check. These low-rise leopard print carpenter jeans check all the boxes, making them an absolute must-have for autumn.

Try wearing them with some bright sneakers (a colorful pair of Adidas Gazelles or Sambas would look great), along with a slouchy cardigan sweater and a t-shirt or tank top. You can also dress these up for a night out with heels or booties, plus a crop top or corset top.

Leopard Print Jacquard Top

Similar to a cardigan, this jacquard leopard print top features button-front closures and a soft, stretchy feel. Its slightly cropped length makes it perfect for pairing with high-rise bottoms like jeans (just not leopard print jeans — remember to balance out your prints with solids!).

Leopard Print Low-Top Sneakers

Take a walk on the wild side and give your outfits an unexpected pop of leopard print with some low-top sneakers. These casual shoes will keep you comfy while adding a stylish touch to your outfits, including basic looks like jeans with a t-shirt.

5. Cozy Cardigans

Cardigans for fall? Groundbreaking.

Okay, so while cozy knitwear may not be the most *groundbreaking* fashion trends, it’s one that I can definitely get behind. Who doesn’t like to be cozy and warm during the autumn?

Be sure to invest in a cute cardigan (or two, or three…) this season, as it’s something you’ll be able to wear year after year.

Gray Cardigan

This gray V-neck cardigan is a wardrobe staple, with a timeless design that won’t ever go out of style — it just so happens to be especially *in* style at the moment!

Wearing it over a white T-shirt is going to give it just the right contrast while keeping it casual.

Novelty Button Cable Crew Cardigan

Gold novelty buttons lend a luxe look to this cable knit cardigan, which is available in six earthy colors. It will make you look polished but keep you super cozy and warm thanks to its soft sweater yarn fabric.

6. Bag Charms

The hottest accessory for the season? An accessory for your accessory! Adorn your handbag with bag charms to give it extra personality and a fun, kitschy vibe.

Cherry Bag Charm

Coach has had a major comeback recently — case in point: the brand’s viral cherry bag charm, which has taken over the internet.

This eye-catching, oversized charm features glittery red cherries that will take any handbag (not just Coach bags) to the next level.

Heart and Bows Keyring

Give your handbag a sweet, girly vibe with this cute gold keyring featuring hearts and a pink fabric bow. It’s super easy to clip onto the strap or buckle on your purses, but can also be used as an actual keyring, as well.

Bubble Letter Monogram Bag Charm

Personalize your handbag with a bubble letter monogram bag charm. Bubble letters have also been trendy in jewelry (Hailey Bieber’s diamond-encrusted “B” bubble letter necklace instantly comes to mind), so toting one (or more) as a bag charm is a fresh way to wear this trend.

7. Bubble Hemlines

You won’t be able to burst my bubble this season… because I’ll be wearing it! Bubble hems have *popped* onto the fashion scene in the form of jackets, skirts, and dresses. These puffed-up hemlines give clothing a playful, unique look that is seriously eye-catching.

Bubble Hem Mini Skirt

This black bubble hem mini skirt is too cute for words! Not your average LBS (little black skirt), the bubble hemline on this mini makes it feel girly, fresh, and fun.

Bubble Hem Mini Dress

The black and white color blocking on this bubble hem mini dress adds to its chic vibe — it feels classic yet modern at the same time. Dress it up with heels and some sleek sunglasses for a retro-inspired look.

8. Suede

Suede is having a major moment this fall, in all forms. From suede jackets to suede handbags and shoes, this material is one that you’ll definitely want to incorporate into your wardrobe this season. Plus, it is ideal for fall weather, being thick and warm, and will add texture to your outfits for a stylish touch.

Faux Suede Bomber Jacket

This camel-colored faux suede bomber jacket is perfect for throwing over your fall outfits. With its vintage-inspired design and slouchy silhouette, it will make you look immediately cooler (while also keeping you warm).

Vegan Suede Mini Skort and Top

Go for a tonal look with this vegan suede mini skort and coordinating shell top in an earthy sand color. The top features a sleek shell neckline, while the high-rise mini skort will put your legs on display.

These pieces can be worn separately, too: the skort will look adorable with a turtleneck or long-sleeve top, while the top will pair perfectly with jeans.

9. Buckled Ballet Flats

Ballet flats had their moment to shine this past spring, and now, their edgier sister — the buckled flat — is here to take their place this fall.

Burgundy Patent Buckled Flats

They’re buckled and they’re burgundy. What more could you ask for this season?! These shiny patent buckled flats are Mary Jane style, in the deep burgundy hue that’s trending this fall, making them a total must-have. Wear them with anything from skirts and dresses to jeans and you’ll look instantly on-trend.

Double Buckle Slingback Flats

Another hugely popular style this fall is slingback flats, and this stylish buckled pair is available in black, red, and silver metallic. These are ultra-affordable, too, with a memory foam insole for comfort and an easy pull-on style slingback.

Leopard Print Buckled Slingback Flats

A great way to incorporate leopard print into your fall outfits with your shoes! These statement-making slingback flats feature leopard print and buckles, along with a sleek pointed toe that’s going to earn you major style points this season.

10. Pleated Mini Skirts, Skorts, and Dresses

Back-to-school, but make it fashion. Schoolgirl-inspired pleated mini skirts, skorts, and dresses are back to steal the show this fall and look adorable on just about everyone.

Burgundy Belted Box Pleat Mini Dress

I am utterly obsessed with this belted box pleat mini dress in burgundy, the color of the season. Its box pleats are accentuated by the belt that accompanies the dress, giving it a high-end look at an affordable price point.

Tailored Buckle Pleated Mini Skirt

Everyone could use a black pleated mini skirt in their wardrobe, and this tailored option with a buckle detail is a super cute pick.

The buckle adds a bit of flair to an otherwise staple silhouette for a modern vibe that can be dressed up or down.

11. Micro Shorts

No pants, no problem. This season, the tinier the shorts, the better! And while you may be wondering why micro shorts are trending for fall, which is typically a chilly season, it’s because they can be styled with tights for a more autumnal (and chic) vibe. Whether you opt for opaque or sheer tights is totally up to you, but I especially love the idea of opting for some burgundy tights (as Jess Hunt did, above) for a fashion-forward effect.

Houndstooth Plaid Micro Shorts

Fall is the perfect time to wear plenty of plaid, and these houndstooth plaid micro shorts hit the fashion mark. They can be worn with or without tights, and look incredible with knee-high boots, pumps, or loafers.

Faux Suede Micro Shorts

These micro shorts incorporate another one of fall’s biggest trends, suede (faux suede, to be exact). The suedette material gives them a heavier, seasonal look that will look especially good with tights.

Play with proportions and style these micro shorts with an oversized blazer or jacket (as shown above) for a winning look.

12. Bermuda Shorts

In complete contrast to micro shorts, extra-long shorts are also trending this season. Bermuda shorts, which are knee-length shorts, have become a fashionista favorite, with all the coolest influencers and fashion insiders sporting these longline shorts.

If you’re looking for transitional outfit ideas that will take you from summer to fall, Bermuda shorts are the ultimate “in-between” clothing item to wear.

Long Denim Shorts (Jorts)

Long jean shorts, also known as jorts (since they are a cross between jeans and shorts), are seriously trending right now, and this pair under $50 has a pleated front and versatile mid-rise. Style them with sneakers for a laid-back vibe, or flats for a fashion-forward look.

Bermuda Trouser Shorts

For a more elevated look, try a pair of Bermuda trouser shorts. These feature the same silhouette as trousers but are cut at the knee, making them ideal for warmer weather.

You could likely get away with even wearing these in a professional setting, in addition to wearing them casually (as shown above).

13. Faux Fur Coats

Bundle up in a faux fur coat or jacket this season. They look super luxe and will instantly dress up even the most casual of outfits. These are especially great for nights out on the town — they’ll make you look rich, hunny!

Burgundy Faux Fur Jacket

Burgundy faux fur? Yes, please. This short faux fur jacket is going to elevate your outfits big time thanks to its on-trend “cherry chocolate” hue and oversized collar. Even when worn over a simple white t-shirt and jeans, it’ll make you look ultra stylish.

Brown Fluffy Jacket

Fluffy and fabulous, this brown zip-up faux fur jacket looks way pricier than it actually is (under $80!). Its neutral light brown color also means it will match with a ton of other items in your wardrobe, making it surprisingly versatile.

14. Moto Boots

Go for an edgy look this fall with some moto boots. This tough, biker-inspired footwear is going to give your outfits a slightly grungy, cool vibe that will have you taking on piles of leaves with ease.

Tall Moto Buckle Boots

You’ll feel like a badass in these tall moto boots that have buckle and grommet detailing throughout for a tough girl vibe. Consider wearing them with softer clothing pieces like a lace skirt or a slouchy sweater to create a stylish contrast.

Moto Ankle Boots

Swap out your sleeker ankle boots for a rugged pair of moto ankle boots this season, instead. These buckled ankle boots have lug soles and silver metallic hardware for a grunge aesthetic that is as practical as it looks cool.
