Fall is finally here! Time to say goodbye to the heat of summer and hello to gorgeous autumn colors and the excitement of the holiday season.
It’s also time to switch up your wardrobe. Fall is a great time to experiment with new patterns, colors and textures.

Fall is all about layers
As the temperature fluctuates dramatically in the fall, layering is your best fashion choice.
Complimenting and contrasting layers will perk up your wardrobe and have you ready for every adventure this season.
From raking leaves:
To taking a hike to leave peep:

What fashion pieces work well for layering?
Essentially, every layered look begins with a tank top, t-shirt or another light-weight shirt layer.
The next level is comprised of long sleeve shirts, vests or sweatshirts.
Layers are finished off with jackets or cardigans.
Of course, you’ll want to also coordinate your pants or skirts to create a complete layered outfit.
Extras like scarves, hats, mittens, shoes and socks can be used to enhance your overall layered look.
How do I decide how to layer my fashion pieces?
When you begin to build your fall wardrobe
1) think about the activities you’ll be participating in
2) and what colors you’d like to brighten up the season.
From the colors you select, pick one base color to begin with. Purchase a tank top, t-shirt or another light-weight shirt in this color.
Then, begin to build your layered pieces around your tank top. Now is the time to consider patterned pieces that have complimentary or contrasting colors, such as a flannel shirt.
Continue layering the look by coordinating your vests, sweaters, jacket and pants.
For example:
Starting with a Blair Essential Stretch Tank in Bright Blue, you can quickly pair it with the Plaid Flannel Tunic in Clamatis Blue and a pair of Flat Waist Washed Demin Jeans in Indigo for a cheerful, casual fall look:
Take your layered look a step further by pairing the outfit with Scandia Fleece Vest in Very Berry. This color picks up on the accent color in the Clamatis Blue Flannel to create a beautiful new look:
When the weather gets a little cooler, switch out the fleece vest for a Quilted Car Coat in Winter White for a chic new style:
Layering is a great way to refresh your wardrobe!
Basic layering fashion pieces are always the perfect addition. In addition to creating new outfits, you can mix and match new wardrobe pieces with your existing clothing.
Either way, you’ll have a fresh new layered look for fall!

I love the clothes you chose. Those are great styles and colors. I did not know Blair had these styles. I love they have a tunic plaid flannel. I will go check them out as I would like to have one and it would be a great holiday gift for my daughter.
Thanks Grace! The plaid tunic is such a great piece to have. I really love the look and how versatile it is. Hope you enjoy adding one to your wardrobe!
That plaid shirt is everything! Looks really great on you. Never thought about a fleece vest but that pink really looks so cute, I need to!
Do experiment with colors, Sue! I had no idea the pink would look so great but I’m totally sold on the look now!
I love layering clothing. I think it looks neat and it is slimming. I always look forward to fall and winter so I can layer more. You made great choices! Looks great!
Thanks Celeste! Agree with you, it does look neat and can really slim the body when you have great-fitting pieces. Glad you enjoy my selection!
I really enjoyed reading this post. These are really helpful tips. This is one of the things I love most about fall.
Thanks Tasheena! So glad you found the tips helpful! Hope you have a lovely fall season!
I don’t have many outfits that I can layer. But fall is a great time to layer items, because as the weather changes throughout the day, you can shed clothing if needed and add it back if it cools off again.
I was the same way but now my wardrobe is full of pieces I can layer. It’s so helpful during the times of year where weather changes constantly, for sure!
I love how the colors and prints are combined. Fashion can be comfortable and yet fashionable at the same time.
Thanks Agnes! Comfort is my top priority but we all still want to look good, right?
Layering is the perfect way to go for me these days! The mornings start out cool, but I get warm as the day wears on. I need a vest.
Same here, Beth! I also find I often need extra layers inside, especially when there is air-conditioning running.
You look great! I like how you styled your outfits. Thank you for the tips!
Thanks Ruth, very lovely of you to say! Glad you found the tips useful!
I love layering clothes in fall and winter. I love that white coat it’s gorgeous.
I honestly hadn’t thought to add a white coat prior to this year but it sure is versatile. Really brightens up any outfit!
I love your looks. Very comfortable and perfect for the fall. I can definitely see myself in this! Especially that vest!
Thanks so much!! Totally comfortable! The vest is such a cute option to have and keeps you just warm enough when you need a little extra, too.
Love the hot pink vest and plaid shirt. My kind of outfit.
Really brightens your day to have fun colors, doesn’t it?
My favorite part about fall is all the layering I get to do! I’m IN LOVE WITH LAYERING! Great tips.
Layering is always good for fall. It can be cold in the morning and then hot in the afternoon.
We don’t really have cool enough Fall seasons for layering, sadly. I wish we did! Send some of the chill our way!
I’m rubbish at layering, but this gave me some amazing ideas! We’re finally feeling cooler weather here in california – so this helps a ton!
I love your layering! I try to layer and always feel like it makes me look over bulky . That and I’m always unsure of the coordination of the layers
I’ve always struggled with layering outfits. I always look unkept. I love your ideas though.
I love your smile and outfit! I love layering too! I live in San Diego, need something warmer to wear in the winter, definitely not a thick coat.
I love that you added a bit of color to your Fall outfit. I am always for a comfy wardrobe always!
It’s that time of year to layer!! So cold in the morning and then it’s decent in the afternoon, only to cool down again once the sun goes down.
i like the colors of plaid you chose and the bright pink vest!
These are great fall wardrobe tips
Barb, you have done this layering in an exceptionally beautiful way. Love every piece!
These are awesome tips! I love fall fashion!

I’m big on tank tops layered with cardigans.
I love layering!
i love fall fashion, thanks for the tips!
Thanks for the tips. Where I live you have to wear layers or you will be sweating or freezing within ten minutes.
It doesn’t usually get real cold here for the most part but these are great tips and you look fantastic. I really need a light vest.
You did a great job of showing different types of layers that would work in different temperatures.
I agree, layering is so great for fall – I have tons of cardigans in my closet!
Thank you for the tips. I wear a lot of cardigans but I want to get a vest.
I love that fleece vest! The color is so pretty! Thank you for sharing these great tips.
I have bought from Blair many times
Those are some great tips! I’ve had some troubles when it comes to layering some of my clothes to make them work together. Those are amazing ideas and I’ll definitely try them out.
These are all great tips and they are all pretty outfits.
Layering is the only way to dress for fall in Colorado. Start with winter temps warm up to fall and then a touch of summer in the afternoon.
I love adding colors to match the changing leaves.
My favorite part of fall is breaking the layers out of storage.
Fantastic ideas & fabulous style too. Thanks.
Terrific ideas. Thanks.
I love layering but I have to keep it to at best like a tank under a sweater or a button down over a tank. I get too constrained feeling.
I love wearing layered clothing when it cool here too. I like the color and styles you put together they look great on you.
I like the tip to start with lightweight shirts. I live in Florida so it doesn’t get too chilly here, but tonight its below 60 degrees.
