According to our calendars (and every storefront window in sight), fall has officially arrived. Bring on the much less sweaty Saturday morning farmers market runs and the snug Sunday night dinners with friends—can you tell we're beyond ready for the cozy pieces we'll get to wear on the weekends?

As always, we're looking to layer to our hearts' desire without breaking the bank, and that's where H&M comes in.

It's all available online now so don't wait to update your fall wardrobe.

Below, see our top 15 weekend-ready steals from H&M, and get to shopping—these aren't going to last.

This year, there are three fresh styles on rotation in our weekend wardrobes: First up, an oversize faux-shearling coat—this cozy texture couldn't be more low-key luxe. Secondly, for our inevitable athleisure looks, a street style–approved letterman jacket is essential for layering under contrasting outerwear like a denim jacket or a polished overcoat. Finally, we'll be throwing this slouchy knit cardigan on over a printed dress and chunky boots for that '90s Brit-girl vibe we can't get enough of.

When are we ever not looking for fall pieces that work just as well with boots as they do sneakers? This fall, we're loving wearing our lace-ups with vintage-inspired styles: digi-floral-print dresses, classic denim overalls, and suede-effect minis (hello, exposed-zip details).

Sweatshirts are a must for off-duty fall attire, and we're especially into graphic options this season. These crew-neck styles aren't just stylish layers to wear to spin class—we'll be wearing them under polished checked blazers to give our tailored looks a sporty touch.

Skinny jeans are the clear winner when it comes to fall denim (and not just because they're perfect with this season's slouchy knee-high boots). Our weekend wardrobes require a fresh black high-rise pair, a more distressed style in a lived-in wash, and this of-the-moment berry hue that we need to wear with a cropped black leather jacket stat.

Our weekend looks call for light knits we can half-tuck into our high-rise everything. We love them for two incredibly crucial reasons: They're so comfortable that we kind of feel like we're wearing our pajamas all day, and they're the perfect partner to the wide-leg trousers we're favoring at the moment.
