Looking forward to the change in seasons feels different these days, but there’s still lots of joy to be had from a fall wardrobe refresh. With this extended time indoors, it only seems natural that we’d gravitate toward clothes that make us feel comfortable — both physically and emotionally. So this fall, we’re pivoting our style choices to accommodate exactly that, in the form of layer-friendly sweaters, comfy dresses and, of course, sweats. Here are some styling tips we’re relying on to keep us stylish (and sane) in the coming months.

Elevate Your Sweats

There’s no shame today in admitting you haven’t stepped out of your sweats or your house in months. They’re insanely comfy, so why would you? Seeing as they’ll be sticking around for the foreseeable future, try keeping them fresh by adding a cool, heeled boot or a crisp white sneak to the mix for a casual yet elevated look that’s more than ready for a walk around the block.

Workout to Zoom in 60 Seconds

Don’t let that Zoom work call prevent you from getting a little workout in first. Rather than sweating over a full outfit change in between activities, give yourself a break and toss on a blazer over whatever you’re wearing. Presto, it’s as easy as that. Also, never forget the transformative power of a good accessory.

Don’t Be Afraid to Experiment

Now’s the time to get creative. Play around with textures and proportions to keep your everyday interesting. Ladies, skip the shirt and opt for a bra instead. Avoid sweater fatigue by pairing a chunky knit with something a little more unexpected, like bike shorts, a blazer or leather leggings. Guys, layer with abandon. Try a hoodie as your base, then add on from there. There’s really no wrong way to dress when no one’s watching.

The Housedress 2.0

Find a comfy dress that can do it all. Having an effortless dress on standby is the ultimate secret weapon for looking put-together with ease. We’d recommend going with a classic shirtdress or a flattering wrap style silhouette that’s easy-on, easy-off for all your last-minute work meetings and power naps. 

Basics With a Twist

A great basic is a must for any wardrobe, but a basic with a twist is even better. It’s the simplest way to elevate any outfit. Whether that translates to a sweater with a literal front twist or an oversized update to a classic silhouette, a little variation goes a long way. Best part is these elevated basics are just as versatile as your usual go-tos, meaning you can dress them up and down, day to night.

HOME IMPROVEMENT

This season, we’re focusing on bringing the outdoors in and relaxing with cozy colors and textures. Try these three simple tips to warm up your place in no time:

Plants Are Your New Best Friend

Whether you use them as an accent or to pull together your living room, they add natural beauty to any space and have a positive effect on your mood. Shop plants

Stock Up On The Soft Stuff

Meaning wool blankets, cashmere throws, fuzzy pillows, anything that’s going to make your days (and meetings) inside cozier. Shop blankets

Stick To The Neutrals

Perennially stylish, a neutral color palette lets you play with shapes and textures without looking or feeling too busy. Shop home

ZOOM IN ON YOUR SKIN

 Reward yourself for hunkering down indoors and treat your skin to a rejuvenating face mask (the other kind), followed by a luxurious moisturizer and mandatory glass of wine. Take your pick from some of our fave skincare products and (maybe) forget ever wearing makeup again.
