Chelsea Boots

These are the perfect complement to any wardrobe because they’re just so versatile. Paired with skinny jeans, a skirt or a dress, ankle boots can add just the right amount of edge or polish to your everyday outfit. We like these Chelsea boots because they have a not-too-high heel, the contrasting panel is so chic and the metallic detail adds a little bit of sparkle. Ted Baker Jureo Black Heeled Chelsea Boot, $ 168

Knit Cardigan

Combining the global nomad and knit trends of the season, a comfy-cozy cardigan will have your fall wardrobe looking stylish and warm. This will be your go-to on days when it’s too sunny for a leather jacket, but too cold to wear just a shirt. A black and white pattern, like on this Topshop cardigan, makes your sweater wear look chic instead of dowdy. Mono Patterned Cardigan, $ 130

Blazer

Since dressing appropriately for fall ride out is all about layers, a blazer is a must-have item for any wardrobe that goes through the seasons. A classic cut and neutral shade allow for this piece to be paired with just about anything from jeans to a business suit. Zippered pockets, a slim silhouette and a release-button give personality to a professional-looking piece. Zip Pocket Blazer, $ 40

Pleated Midi Skirt

We can’t have this list without a skirt. Still going strong from summer, the pleated midi skirt offers just the right length and movement that’s looked-for for cooler temperatures. While we like the look of this black, almost faux-leather skirt, don’t be worried to try some gorgeous jewel tones like amethyst, pea green or ruby to really add some pop to your fall wardrobe. Trouvé Pleat Midi Skirt, $ 113

Baggy Trousers

They’re not quite sweatpants, hammer pants, harem pants or trousers, but somehow they manage to look excellent. Paired with a snazzy blazer, a pair of heels and a nice clutch, these baggy trousers make a fashion statement whether you’re at the office or headed to the gym. And thanks to their sizeable construction, you can wear these pants without being uncomfortable. Faith Connexion Techno Crepe Baggy Trousers, $ 287
