9 Fall Outfits I Always "Fall" Back On (Sorry)
No matter what season you're in, it always helps to have an arsenal of outfit ideas in your back pocket for whenever you're rushing out the door in the morning, dressing for an important meeting, or perhaps even have a dinner date on the books that you really want to step it up for. The influx of new fashion arrivals coupled with my slight case of warm-weather dressing fatigue has me already and unabashedly planning my October and November looks and, as always, doing a little shopping while I'm at it. So now, I'm sharing some of my historical go-to outfits. To see how some of my favorite fashion girls wore the nine classic looks and shop them along the way, just keep scrolling.
1. Blazer + Jeans + Kitten Heels
No matter what color blazer, jeans, or shoes you wear, you can never really go wrong with this one.
2. Minidress + Ankle Boots
Depending on the weather, you can also throw a sweater over your shoulders.
3. Long Coat + Leather Pants + Sneakers
I 100% do not look as cool as Pernille when I wear this combo, but it's still a good one—I promise.
Shop more sizes at Nordstrom.
4. Suit + Heels
Need to look smart? Throw on a suit and heels and you will always look good.
Shop the matching Amaya Vest ($125) and Norah Trousers ($155).
5. Sweater + Midi Skirt + Kitten Heels
This easy pairing is as comfortable as it is cute.
6. Fleece + Jeans + Ankle Boots
My many fleeces were on heavy rotation last fall, and I can't wait to bring them back again. Bonus points if you also throw on some layering chains to elevate the look like Caroline.
7. Sweaters + Slacks
Knitwear is turning out to be an even bigger fall trend than usual, so double up on the sweaters (or pick a pre-styled combo) and pair with your favorite trousers.
8. Blazer + Turtleneck + Miniskirt
Any shoes will do the trick, of course, but the kitten heels look especially lovely.
9. Statement Jacket + Jeans + Ankle Boots
I love a statement jacket for making jeans look polished and applicable for a ton of settings.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2020, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch 90 Day Fiancé.
