Early Fall Essentials You Need

September 4, 2024

Back to school is here in Minnesota and it got me thinking about the basics in your closet as we round out the year. This is a great time to assess your wardrobe and fill in the gaps with early fall essentials!

Let’s dive in as I share eight early fall pieces that are worthy additions to your wardrobe this year.

White or Gray Tee

A white or gray tee is incredibly versatile and can be paired with almost anything. It works well under cardigans, blazers, or leather jackets, making it easy to create different fall looks. A simple vintage graphic tee shirt also adds that little something extra to your outfit. For a look that is unexpected and fun, pair a vintage graphic tee with a satin skirt (loving this chocolate satin skirt from Evereve) and a sneaker!

Chic Sporty Sneaker

The athleisure trend continues to be popular this year, and chic sporty sneakers are a key component of this style. They allow you to create outfits that are both stylish and comfortable which is perfect for fall!

Details: Denim, Sneakers

The Oversized Blazer

The relaxed fit of an oversized blazer offers comfort and ease of movement, making it ideal for everyday wear. My favorite way to wear an oversized blazer is to pair it with cropped wide leg denim!

Cozy Knit Sweater

As the temperatures start to drop, knit sweaters provide the perfect amount of warmth to keep you comfortable without needing heavy outerwear. Here in Minnesota, we are in jackets half of the year, so any excuse to not wear a jacket, I’m in!! Sweaters are such a staple wardrobe essential.

Details: Sweater, Denim

Ankle Boot

Suede ankle booties strike the perfect balance between summer and winter footwear. They provide more coverage than sandals or flats, making them perfect for cooler temperatures. Everyone needs a neutral light tan pair because they go with so many looks and pair well with denim, skirts and dresses.

Everyday Midi Dress

An everyday midi dress offers an instant, put-together look with minimal effort. It’s a one-piece outfit that saves you time and decision-making and being a busy mom myself, I love something I can put on and feel instantly ready-to-go.

The All Purpose Tote

I LOVE the versatility of a tote. I often joke with my friends that I think I will never transition out of one. They are spacious and can carry all your essentials and as a busy mom – this is so key! I can’t tell you how many times I’m thankful to be carrying a bigger purse.

Pendant Necklace

Pendants come in a variety of designs these days, allowing you to choose one that reflects your personal style or holds special meaning. This type of necklace adds that “little something special” to make your fall outfits feel more unique and intentional.

By incorporating these early fall essentials into your wardrobe, you can embrace the season ahead.

Happy early fall shopping!
