Weâve had QUITE the hot summer in the Philadelphia area this year. Like to the point when itâs too hot to even sit by the pool. However, this week weâve had cooler mornings {hello 75 degree weather!}, which is making me crave fall SO much. So today, Iâm sharing with you the chic, casual fall fashion thatâs on my radar lately.
1. Neiman Marcus Long-Sleeve Cable Knit Turtleneck: If I could pick one type of clothing item for the entire fall and winter seasons, it would be turtlenecks. Iâm always super cold, so turtlenecks were basically made for me. I didnât buy too many last year, but this year Iâm stocking up. They are super versatile, because you can dress them up or make them look more casual. You can wear them to work with a pair of skinny black trousers, or on the weekends with a pair of ripped jeans and sneakers. The possibilities are endless!
2. Free People Lover Rib Thermal Top: Every time Iâm in a Free People store I can never find what Iâm looking for. Please tell me that Iâm not the only one. However, when Iâm searching through their website, I find like a million amazing things - including this thermal top which makes me super excited for fall. Fall is my favorite season because I love the relaxed fashion. But, donât get that confused with SLOPPY. I love wearing a super casual top, like this thermal, with a pair of skinny jeans, cute booties, and maybe a fun suede hat.
3. Rag & Bone Margot Booties: Rag & Bone makes the BEST boots, in my opinion. Last fall, I tried on a bunch of their booties at Nordstrom and decided that I couldnât make the splurge on them. Then for months, I wished I had just bought them! Iâm obsessed with a lot of their styles, including these Margot ones and this Harlow style. If youâre looking for a cheaper alternative, try the Billie Boot from Madewell. I have a pair in black leather and wear them all the time in the fall/winter!
4. Adidas Superstar Sneakers: These sneakers have been on my wishlist since the spring, so itâs time I finally just buy them. Apparently they were cool back in middle school, but I wasnât cool enough to know that. I just know I love them now, and they will look awesome with a pair of skinny jeans and the Free People Thermal I mentioned earlier. I donât think I can be THIS daring, but Iâve also seen girls on Instagram rock these sneakers with a casual dress.
5. Zella Live In Leggings: Iâve been trying to find the perfect leggings for years now. Every time I think Iâve found something good, they wind up being sort of see through, and NO body wants that. Iâve bought so many pairs of cheap leggings, that I think itâs time I invest in a pair thatâs going to last. These ones from Zella have rave reviews online, so I need to get my hands on them soon. They will look amazing with a long sweater and boots for basically every day in the fall/winter.
6. Madewell Suede Fringe Tote: I love a good fringe, and I love this bag in particular because itâs an INTERESTING work bag. Itâs not too over the top, but has a bit of flare. I can throw all of my essentials in there and go. Iâm pretty sure my friend Leslee has a tote from Madewell and wears it all the time because itâs such high quality. The only negative about this bag is that there is no zipper or snap closure. If anyone has recommendations for a similar bag that closes, please let me know.
7. Tom Ford Greta Sunglasses: Sunglasses are needed year round, so this isnât necessarily a fall item, but Iâm including it anyway. Iâll be honest… these Tom Ford sunnies are NOT cheap and I donât know if Iâll ever make the splurge on them, but Iâm obsessed. I try them on every time Iâm in Nordstrom, in an effort to persuade myself to hate them, but it never works. They look AMAZING on. Iâm sure I can find a cheaper dupe somewhere, so if I do, Iâll keep you posted.

YES. I do not know what I would do without my Madewell bag - I love the crap out of that thing. So much so that I think I am going to invest in their leather cleaner to give it a little spruce (I think Iâve had it for 2+ years now) so I can continue wearing it with basically everything. I usually need a bag that closes at the top too, but I actually love that because of the open top I can drop any and everything into my tote. It can hold bouquets of flowers, shoes, shopping bags, or just regular purse stuff. I endorse this purchase ! {Sorry, Bryan ;)}
