Fall is finally here, bringing with it the chance to indulge in cozy layers, chic textures, and rich, moody colors. For this season, I’m excited to share an outfit that’s equal parts comfy and chic—perfect for a crisp fall day, whether you’re grabbing coffee, enjoying a scenic walk, or meeting up with friends. Plus-size fashion has come a long way, and today’s look is all about embracing comfort, style, and, most importantly, confidence.
The Outfit Breakdown
This outfit combines essential fall staples with a little edge, a lot of texture, and a pop of sophistication. Here’s what I put together for Outfit of the Day 001:
- Black Long Sleeve Base Layer T-Shirt (Plus Size)
A good base layer is essential for cooler weather, and a black long sleeve tee is a versatile piece. This soft, stretchy top provides a comfortable foundation that layers well without adding bulk. It’s a plus-size fit that hugs in the right places, creating a streamlined silhouette. Black is universally flattering and grounds the outfit with a timeless touch. - Charcoal Gray Boyfriend Cardigan (Plus Size)
Oversized cardigans are a must for fall, and this charcoal gray boyfriend cardigan adds a cozy yet polished vibe. Its relaxed fit and soft fabric make it perfect for layering, and the dark gray color complements almost any palette. The oversized style allows for layering with ease, and the longer length keeps you warm while elongating the figure. - Plaid Pleated Skirt (Plus Size)
A plaid skirt adds an undeniable seasonal vibe. This plus-size plaid pleated skirt is not only trendy but incredibly versatile. The pleats give it a lovely volume and movement, creating an eye-catching flow when you walk. Pairing a plaid skirt with neutrals, like black and charcoal, keeps it classic and allows the pattern to pop. This skirt sits just above the knee, striking the perfect balance between playful and polished. - Wide Calf Knee-High Boots with Strap Details
Knee-high boots are a fall staple, and for plus-size gals, wide-calf styles are a godsend. These boots have a classic look with just enough edge from the strap details, adding a touch of flair to this otherwise laid-back ensemble. They’re comfortable for all-day wear, with a sturdy heel and a timeless leather finish that matches the saddle bag. - Diamond Shift Sheer Tights (Plus Size)
For an extra layer of warmth and texture, sheer tights with a diamond pattern create a polished, put-together look. These tights fit comfortably and elevate the outfit by breaking up the solid colors and adding a hint of pattern. The sheer diamond design brings subtle intrigue without overwhelming the other pieces.
Accessorizing the Look
This outfit wouldn’t be complete without a few choice accessories. Here’s how I styled it:
- Black Leather Saddle Crossbody Bag with Gold Accents
A crossbody bag is a must-have for hands-free comfort, and the black leather saddle style gives a subtle, structured shape that’s elegant yet functional. Gold accents add a sophisticated touch, complementing the jewelry and adding warmth to the cooler tones in the outfit. - Multi-Strand Gold Cube Detailed Bracelet
Layered bracelets always make a statement, and this multi-strand gold bracelet with cube detailing is the perfect mix of chic and playful. The gold adds warmth, matching the accents on the crossbody bag and creating a cohesive look that feels thoughtful yet effortless. - Gold Ribbon Statement Stud Earrings
These bold ribbon earrings draw the eye without overpowering the rest of the outfit. They add a hint of glam that balances out the casualness of the cardigan and boots, making the look feel intentional and put together. - Gold Bar Chain Necklace
I love layering necklaces in the fall, and this simple gold bar chain necklace is a great choice. It’s subtle, sleek, and complements the other accessories without feeling too fussy. Together with the bracelet and earrings, it brings a harmonious metallic glow that adds warmth to the outfit. - Charcoal Gray Ribbed Scarf
A charcoal gray ribbed scarf brings both coziness and sophistication. The ribbed texture adds visual interest, and it’s just the right size to drape loosely around your neck or layer under the cardigan for extra warmth. It’s a soft, snuggly addition to the look that also ties in with the color of the cardigan.
Why This Look Works for Fall
This outfit works well for several reasons. First, the color palette is grounded in rich neutrals, which are versatile and flattering on all skin tones. Black, gray, and hints of gold make the outfit feel balanced and cohesive, while the plaid skirt adds a playful, seasonal touch.
Layers are the essence of fall fashion, and this look incorporates layering in a way that’s both functional and fashionable. The black tee and cardigan provide a warm base, while the skirt and tights allow for airflow and keep things breezy. The scarf and boots add practical warmth for those chilly days, making this look ideal for transitional weather.
How to Wear This Outfit: Styling Tips
- For a Casual Look: Keep the cardigan unbuttoned, and drape the scarf loosely around your neck. This creates a laid-back, effortless vibe perfect for coffee dates or casual outings.
- For a Polished Look: Try wrapping the scarf in a French knot and push up the sleeves of the cardigan slightly. This small styling choice makes the outfit look more intentional and put-together.
- To Add More Warmth: Consider adding a thin wool coat in black or gray for an extra layer. This would be perfect for colder days without clashing with the rest of the look.
Where to Wear This Outfit
This ensemble is ideal for various occasions:
- Brunch Dates: The layered look has just enough polish to feel special, but it’s still comfortable for sitting, chatting, and indulging in some fall treats.
- Office Casual: Depending on your work dress code, this look strikes a good balance between professional and cozy. The plaid skirt and tights bring a professional feel, while the cardigan and scarf add warmth.
- Fall Outings: Whether you’re visiting a pumpkin patch, heading to a fall festival, or going for a scenic walk, this outfit combines comfort with style, making it a versatile choice for all-day activities.
- Evening Gatherings: Add a swipe of red lipstick and style your scarf in a chic, knotted look to make this outfit evening-ready for a casual dinner or family get-together.
