Fall Basics Lookbook

Hello friends! My last lookbook went over really well, so I thought I'd do another one, this time with a twist: I wanted to use my fall wardrobe staples, minimal accessories, and I wanted to get as many looks as possible. The results? 6 basic pieces + 4 accessories + 4 pairs of shoes + 3 purses = 9 fall outfits that fit a variety of occasions and are super easy to put together.

Let's break this all down before we get started: I put together a basic formula for what I wanted in every outfit, which was 1 top, 1 bottom, 1 accessory, 1 pair of shoes, and 1 purse. Of course, this can be changed, but that's where I started.

Next, I chose my pieces. For tops, I chose a really soft chambray button down from Forever 21, a dark green sweatshirt from Forever 21, and a gray sweater with a crochet back detail from Kohl's. For bottoms, I chose my favorite pair of American Eagle jeans and pair of rusty red skinny cargo(ish) pants from Kohl's. I also added a hunter green dress from Target.

After that, I had to pick all my extras. This was the hardest part for me because I could've taken it in so many directions, but I tried to pick as few items as possible while still having a variety. I ended up with a Forever 21 statement necklace, a simple cream infinity scarf from Old Navy, a trendier plaid blanket scarf from Romwe, and a brown dragonfly-printed scarf from Charming Charlie for the accessories. For shoes, I chose some cute maroon Oxford-style shoes from Forever 21, my favorite tan combat boots from Target, gray booties from Kohl's, and camel-colored booties from Old Navy. Lastly for the purses, I have a slouchy, almost metallic tan bag from Target, a black purse from Charming Charlie, and a little berry wristlet from the Coach Outlet Store.

With all that said, here are my 9 outfits:

chambray shirt, green dress, statement necklace, maroon shoes, black purse
