Ready, not ready…that’s how I feel about fall. Truth be told, it won’t be cooler here for a while, but come the middle of September, I’ll definitely be tired of my summer clothes and ready for a little sweater weather…even though that is probably wishful thinking!

I like the idea of a sweater or jacket with a pair of denim shorts and booties because it looks a little more transitional and maybe slightly unexpected, so pull out those booties and style them with your shorts!

Another trend that’s back this season is leather shorts and I’m definitely on board. I bought a couple of pairs last season and this trend is still going strong for fall 2022.

Fall is a time for classic sweaters, flowy dresses, denim and leather jackets, sneakers and boots. If you’re anything like me and want to sneak a few of these items into your wardrobe a little early, here are a few ideas you might like. I’m working on a full fall fashion trend report so this is just a little sneak peak!

The look above features faux leather shorts and a denim jacket. It’s a classic combination with a new-for-fall twist. The sneakers give this look a casual feel that will take you anywhere!

You’ll wear a dress like this one over and over again for fall! This one is from Baash Paris and is one of my favorite finds from last year!

You really can’t go wrong with any denim you choose to wear this fall! Wide leg, skinny, boyfriend…you name it and it’s going to work. Pair your jeans with a favorite leather jacket and sneakers for a casual and classic look!

I discovered Moussy jeans last fall and my obsession continues! These jeans fit so well and have just the right amount of edgy street style. A classic grey cardigan and booties are perfect with these skinny jeans.

I’m not really a skirt girl, but I made an exception for this one. Wear it with sneakers and a tee while the weather is still warm and add the sweater and boots later!

This dress from Ulla Johnson is from last season and I still love it for this year. I’ve linked similar Ulla stles that you’ll love!

I’ve started thinking about a few new fall purchases and mixing things up just a bit. I love my jeans, but I’m considering ordering a few pairs of trousers. These trousers from Frame are classic and will go with so many sweaters and I’m also liking these black ones from Theory. This plaid pair from Veronica Beard may be my favorite! Speaking of Veronica Beard…I love this, this and these and everything else on the website!
