23 Fall Fashion Must-Haves R29 Editors Are Wearing This Season

It’s finally time to embrace breezy-weather outings, spooky-season decorations, apple cider donuts, and, of course, fall fashion.

As we move on from our summer favorites during this transitional weather period, Refinery29 editors have started taking our autumn must-haves out for a spin. From September onward, we reach for versatile staples like fall jackets (think: trench coats with a twist), spacious handbags (from oversized totes to slouchy shoulder bags), and boots (including tried-and-true knee-highs) from reader-favorite brands like Free People, Damson Madder, and Abercrombie & Fitch that can serve as outfit building blocks. For our athleisure needs, there’s an active onesie; for eveningwear, there’s a Brat green kaftan gown. We’re also staying up to date on trending items, such as burgundy jackets and not one, but two red bags, which add a pop of color to our tried-and-true neutrals.

Read on to learn more about our favorite seasonal picks and get inspired for your own fall wardrobe.
