With the days of summer slowly wrapping up, the time of summer dresses and sandals will sadly come to an end along with it. Cozy sweaters and rain boots will be the replacement as we bundle up to fight the cold, rainy days of fall. As we analyze our winter wardrobe with an intent to get rid of pieces that we no longer want, we begin the search for necessary additions and the concept of simplicity is one that we have decided to embrace.
Smart, intentional purchases not only help us to manage our shopping habits, but also to build a wardrobe of versatile and beautiful staples. Instead of an overflowing wardrobe filled with impulse purchases, investing in fewer, more expensive pieces of clothing can grant us the opportunity to build a wardrobe of quality.
To start the search for these quality pieces, we headed over to LUISAVIAROMA. While we could spend hours scrolling through their pages of stunning clothes, we narrowed our search to find the perfect staples to begin building our fall wardrobe. LUISAVIAROMA is a one-stop destination to discover designer products ranging from clothing to home decor. They offer street wear, active wear, formal wear, bags and shoes that quickly fill up our wish list. They even offer an assortment of designer clothing for kids, because your mini-me might be on the search for a wardrobe update as well.
The options are endless, but here are a few that we are excited to hang in our closet this fall:
1. Isabel Marant: Oversized Nylon Trench Coat
As Angela Ahrendts, former CEO of Burberry once stated, “Everyone in the world should have a trench coat, and there should be a trench coat for everyone in the world.” We agree. The perfect trench brings to mind legendary women, like Audrey Hepburn, running through the rainy streets of New York in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. This Isabel Marant coat gives the iconic trench coat a modern twist, with its oversized fit and lightweight material. There is even a concealed hood in the collar with a zip closure. This coat is the perfect layer to throw over a simple outfit that needs a touch of class.
2. Self Portrait: Wide Leg Double Crepe Cropped Pant
The wide leg, cropped pant is a trend that we hope is here to stay. This chic pant is the modern girls’ power pant. Pair them with a sweater and a great pair of boots and you’ll be ready for the office. But swap out those boots with some stilettos and you’re ready for a fun after work social activity. This particular pair is high waisted with a grosgrain waistband and concealed back zip closure. Investing in a pant like this will give you that much needed, go-to piece that will have you leaving the house feeling confident and stylish.
3. Church’s: 20MM Brogue Brushed Leather Ankle Boots
These Church boots are at the top of our wish list. While a classic pair of black ankle boots are a must for fall, these have just a bit of extra flair that sets them apart from the rest. These boots are the kind that you will wear as an everyday staple during the cold days of fall. That is why investing in a quality pair of boots like these are such an important decision. Knowing that they will be comfortable and wear well when exposed to winter weather are benefits of adding these to your fall wardrobe. We also love the simple brogue details, giving them a delicate and formal touch.
