I was scrolling back through some of my older posts and realized something – every fall, like clockwork, I get the urge to toss up a little seasonal inspiration. Here’s my post from 2021 and here’s one from 2023 too. As soon as there’s a chill in the air, I want to dig through my closet, mix things up, and find fresh ways to welcome autumn.
So, in keeping with tradition, here are a few images that are giving me all the cozy, pumpkin spice, crunchy-leaf vibes this year.
When it comes to accessories:

I’m obsessed with this dark olive green nail polish shade for my toenails right now. Its OPI in “Suzi the First Lady of Nails” and I love it! Also on my ‘feeling for fall’ list is the cowboy boots I thrifted in Arizona (I added these fluffy insoles inside and now they are cute AND comfortable) and my platform low-top Chucks (also thrifted). I’ve been wearing both with all the skirts lately and will be adding tights to the look soon.
I found this chunky two-tone necklace at a consignment shop and can’t wait to layer it along with other chains with all my fall looks. As for those gorgeous wine-berry colored glasses, they are the Dasia glasses from Warby Parker. I tried them on while helping my husband pick out his new glasses and they might be my new pair once I get my prescription updated next month. They reminded me that I own a similar colored pair of readers, so I switched them out with my heavily used pair to give me a little variety.
Clothing inspo:

I thrifted the Everlane striped sweater in the spring and I’m still obsessed with it. I can’t wait to wear it a billion times this fall with jeans and joggers. The plaid/velvet/embroidered Johnny Was top was bought secondhand in Florida in August, so I’m patiently waiting until the weather allows me to throw it on as a kooky fun layer!
I love Pendelton designs SO MUCH, even though they are mostly out of my comfort price range. I have picked up two of their cotton cardigans secondhand over the past year or so and I love throwing them on over a simple v-neck t-shirt or graphic tee (here’s my orange version). They will be appearing a bunch this fall. As for the jeans, I’m excited that boot cut/baby boot cut are back around! I’ve been gravitating towards a darker wash and recently ordered a couple pairs (including this pair) from Lucky Brand to try.
As you notice, most of my fall inspiration comes from items I’ve collected secondhand and I’m shopping my own closet for my inspo. I don’t feel like I need to go out and buy a whole new wardrobe each season. And really, who can do that anyways?! Instead, I like to collect a few new pieces that I love throughout the year and pack them away until the right season comes around and I can fully enjoy them.
