Your Stylist approved full fall shopping guide

As the long, golden days of summer fade, we find ourselves leaning into crisp mornings and the quiet urge to cozy up—both in style and at home. The shift is subtle but unmistakable, calling for those perfect pieces that wrap us in warmth: a layering staple, a luxuriously soft cashmere sweater, or even a bougie candle that brings that early autumn glow to your space. It’s all about embracing the soft, cozy vibes of September, where sunshine meets sweater weather, and everything just feels a little more serene.

As a personal stylist, one thing that always comes to mind during the fall transition is the beauty of earthy tones inspired by the rich hues of autumn foliage. These shades naturally influence how I dress my clients, my family, and even how I style my home and kitchen. After all, the environment around us becomes the ultimate muse, guiding us toward a season that feels grounded, warm, and inviting.

For HER:

The juxtaposition of rusty tones against various textures has led my creative direction this season. Nothing is more versatile and elegant than a corduroy jacket that can elevate any pair of jeans. Fall-like patterns always come to mind. It might be the crips humidity of a Fall morning that takes you straight to the English countryside. Whether in cozy wool, chocolate sexy silk, or lightly printed crepe, midi dresses are timeless and will look great worn with a pair of contrast or neutral tall boots. These Sam Edelman have stolen my heart. They come in every shade of fall one could dream of. Don’t underestimate adding a light cashmere sweater to this fall equation. I recommend going for a lighter, more neutral tone that could work as a layering base for the richer earthy and jewel hues.

This season, I’m all about the contrast of rusty tones paired with rich textures—it’s the foundation of my creative direction. There’s nothing quite as versatile and effortlessly chic as a corduroy jacket that instantly elevates any pair of jeans. Fall patterns like tweed and tartan evoke the crisp morning air that transports you straight to the English countryside. Whether in cozy wool, sultry chocolate silk, or a softly printed crepe, midi dresses remain timeless, especially when paired with contrast or neutral tall boots. These Sam Edelman boots have truly stolen my heart, offering every shade of fall imaginable. And don’t forget the perfect finishing touch—a light cashmere sweater. I suggest opting for a soft neutral tone as your layering base, allowing those rich, earthy and jewel hues to truly shine.

For HIM

When I think of fall menswear, my mind drifts to the rugged elegance of a weathered Barbour jacket paired with worn-in Chelsea boots. Picture the subtle romance of layering rich textures—a plaid blazer draped over a soft cashmere sweater, each piece carrying the warmth of timeless craftsmanship. There’s something quietly moody about leaning into classic style, where simplicity and tradition speak confidence. It’s the kind of formula that resonates effortlessly, whether in menswear or womenswear, evoking the gentle nostalgia of autumn.
