1. Layer a Skirt over a Dress

Layer a Skirt over a Dress Most people don’t think of layering skirts and dresses together when they think of layering. However, it’s actually one of the trendiest layering methods you can do this fall. It’s especially trendy if the dress is a shirtdress and peaks out from underneath the skirt just a little bit. You’ll be rocking the layering trend in no time at all!

2. Layer a Sweater and Button-down Blouse

Layer a Sweater and Button-down Blouse If you’re not quite ready for such bold layering yet, try going for a more classic method. Layer a crewneck sweater over a button-down blouse for a look that’s preppy and classic. It’s such a classic fall look and the preppy trend is so in this fall too!

Frequently asked questions

3. Drape a Coat over Your Shoulders

Drape a Coat over Your Shoulders Usually when people think of fall, they think of being bundled up in layers and then adding a coat to the mix. However, when you’re dressing for a brisk fall day and wondering if you need a coat, think less about function and more about fashion. Drape a coat over your shoulders rather than bundling up in it. It’ll look chic but will help keep you warm too!

4. Mix Patterned Shirts under Patterned Sweaters

Mix Patterned Shirts under Patterned Sweaters One of the biggest trends this year is mixing patterns when you layer your clothes. If you want to take the sweater and button-down blouse one step further, try going crazy with the patterns you wear. Wear a polka dot blouse and layer a striped sweater over it. The mixed patterns are so whimsical that you’ll turn heads this fall!

When diving into mixed patterns, remember to balance the scale of your prints. A tiny floral print can work wonders with an oversized houndstooth, creating a visually appealing contrast. Stick to a cohesive color scheme to maintain harmony in your look. If you're feeling adventurous, throw in a textured scarf or a patterned bag to add another layer to your ensemble. Just ensure that one pattern plays the role of the statement while others complement it. This playful approach to layering ensures you embody the essence of autumn's dynamic fashion landscape.

5. Layer a Sweater over a Dress

Layer a Sweater over a Dress This has always been my favorite layering hack. Put on your favorite dress, whether it’s a summer or winter dress, and then throw a sweater over it. The sweater thrown over your dress will make it look like you’re actually wearing a skirt and it creates an entirely new outfit. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve fooled my friends into thinking I was wearing a new outfit when really it was just an old dress and sweater!

When selecting your sweater, consider its length and cut. An oversized knit can add a cozy, effortless vibe, while a cropped sweater can accentuate your waist and give the appearance of a two-piece ensemble. Play with textures too—a chunky cable knit over a light, flowy dress creates a delightful contrast. Don’t be afraid to experiment with patterns either; a striped or leopard print sweater can inject some fun into a solid-colored dress. And when the temperatures dip further, you can simply add tights or boots to the mix, ensuring both warmth and style.

6. Wear a Cardigan and a Denim Shirt

Wear a Cardigan and a Denim Shirt When people think of layering, they usually don’t think of layering multiple different shirts. If you’re at a loss when it comes to layering, try this. Wear a t-shirt, and then layer an unbuttoned denim shirt over it, and then a cardigan over that. It adds so much texture to your look and is so perfect for fall!

This combination creates an effortlessly chic and cozy ensemble ideal for the brisk autumn air. The denim adds a casual, rugged touch while the cardigan brings warmth and refinement. Don’t be afraid to mix textures and materials – it’s all about creating visual interest. For an extra twist, play with different shades and weights of denim and cardigans until you find the perfect match that expresses your personal style. Finish off the look with your favorite fall boots or sneakers for a balanced, trendy outfit that's practical too.

7. Go for a Big Scarf

Go for a Big Scarf If wearing multiple layers of clothing just isn’t for you, try something simpler. As much as I love layering, it can sometimes get a little restricting and overwhelming. Instead, sometimes I wear a huge scarf tied in a unique way to add some depth and texture to your look.
