The Essential Pieces (and Looks) for This Fall/Winter

Don’t know what to wear (or buy) this season?

Want to know the essential pieces you should have?

One great way of deciding what to wear and buy each season is to choose 3 (or 4) favourite outfits and then search for the pieces in your closet and buy what you don’t have.

Unless you already have all the basics and fashionable basics, two of those outfits should have mostly basic or fashionable basic pieces.

Here are 10 looks of this season (with many basic and fashionable basic pieces).

Choose 3 or 4 you love the most, check what’s missing and go shopping for your perfect fall wardrobe :)

10 Looks of This Season

Remember: Choose the ones you’d love to wear!

1. Skinny Jeans + Tee + Ankle Boots

To recreate this look you need: Skinny Jeans + White Loose Tee + Black Cardigan + Black Flat Ankle Boots. A very basic look with some very essential pieces.

2. Black Skirt + Sweater

To recreate this look you need: Full Black Skirt + Crew neck Loose Sweater + Black Leather Jacket. Wear it with black opaque tights and black ankle boots or pumps.

3. Slouchy Pants + Sweater

To recreate this look you need: Slouchy Pants + Black Pumps + Loose Sweater + Bib Necklace. If you prefer to wear flats go for ballet flats or moccasins instead.

4. Leather Pants + Tee

To recreate this look you need: Black Leather Pants + Talking Tee + Black Boyfriend Blazer. You can wear it with the Black Pumps or Black Ankle Boots. And you can replace the boyfriend blazer for a long cardigan, if you want a more casual/relaxed look.

5. Skinny Pants + Sweatshirt + Ankle Boots

To recreate this look you need: Grey Skinny Jeans + Grey Talking Sweatshirt + Grey Ankle Boots. Grey is a neutral color that goes well with everything. Grey skinnies are a good investment because they they’re like jeans (very versatile) but make you look different ;).

6. Leather Skirt + Loose Tee

To recreate this look you need: Black Straight Leather Skirt + Black Tee + Combat Jacket + Nude Pumps. You can replace the combat jacket for a army green parka that is a basic and easier to combine. And the black tee for a black straight and loose blouse. It also looks great with black opaque tights and black pumps, ballet flats or ankle boots.

7. Sweater + Skinny Jeans

To recreate this look you need: Crew neck Sweater + Ripped Skinny Jeans + Pumps + Bib Necklace. If you don’t have the basic pumps – black, nude – buy them first. This outfit also looks great with ankle boots.

8. Plaid Shirt + Skinny Jeans + Cardigan

To recreate this look you need: Plaid Shirt + Skinny Jeans + Pumps + Long Cardigan. It’s a great casual outfit, with many basic pieces. Plaid is one of the trends this season, to recreate a grunge look. You can wear ankle boots instead of pumps. Buy a long sleeved cardigan because it’s much warmer.

9. Sweatshirt + Skinny Jeans + Ankle Boots

To recreate this look you need: Grey Sweatshirt + Skinny Jeans + Black Ankle Boots + Scarf. The grey sweatshirt is a trend that goes well with everything.

10. Black Dress + Ankle Boots + Leather Jacket

To recreate this look you need: Black Dress + Black Ankle Boots + Black Leather Jacket. Wear with black opaque tights during the colder months. A black dress is a great investment. If you choose a classic style it will never go out of fashion.
