Fall is nearly here and I am even more ready for it than usual this year after a very hot, very humid and very rainy summer in New York.
Fall is my absolute favorite time of year for so many reasons but it is also my favorite season to get dressed. I’m excited to begin pulling out all my Fall favorites that I have rounded up to share with you today.
Long time readers will recognize a lot of these pieces and already know that I truly believe in making investments in your wardrobe for classic pieces that you know will be in style for years to come. I’ve given this post a full refresh and included some of my newest purchases in it. I am so excited to revisit a lot of my favorite items this Fall and hope this post will inspire you as you shop as well!
As always, you can shop my closet in The Shop which I regularly update!
