The Best Layering Essentials for Fall and Beyond

Layering pieces should serve at least one of two purposes: They make your outfit (even just a little bit) warmer and/or they provide some kind of visual intrigue. A mismatched set of long- and short-sleeved silhouettes might accomplish both, or a flash of an unexpectedly citrus-colored underlayer would satisfy the latter. These are the kind of highly useful garments that great fall wardrobes are made of. It also happens to be the foundation on which Amazon’s Staples by The Drop is built. It’s a street style-inspired collection of fashionable basics, which all ring in at an affordable price. For some of the most valuable essentials to stock up on for fall, keep scrolling.
