Here’s good news for anyone who can’t stand to spend another day overheating in a T-shirt or wearing sandals on the subway: Fall has officially arrived. But the real hype around the season isn’t about pumpkin spice or posting photos of your apple-picking adventures. It’s because fall is the most satisfying season to dress for, with tried-and-true trends always making a welcome return. Textures are cozy, classic denim is everywhere, jackets are crisp, and creative layering is encouraged. Plus, sleek, slip-on boots like those from Blundstone become an everyday way to blend edge and practicality into any outfit.
