Argyle, cable knits, and Fair Isle are the starting point for my kind of fall outfit: a little heritage, a little unexpected. I’ve paired them with dark denim, chocolate browns, burgundy touches, and sculptural silver for five different moods from a ...

Pumpkin Patch Argyle
Josie Argyle Cardigan Pink and burgundy argyle is such a good little plot twist. I’d keep the rest simple with dark denim and brown boots.
Josie Argyle Cardigan
Dark denim gives the pink argyle room to be the main character. I like the straight silhouette with a small cuff and flats.
Matchstick Jean
That deep brown suede and softly slouching shape are what caught my eye. A lovely counterpoint to the graphic cardigan.
Slouchy Suede Tote
The round toe and substantial sole keep these tall brown boots from feeling too dressed up. I’d try them with a short skirt and the argyle knit.
Maeve Tall Round Toe Boots
The burgundy cuffs are my favorite part. I’d let a little of that ribbed texture peek above a boot.
UGG Rib Knit Slouchy Socks
Bookstore Heritage
A deep green fisherman knit with excellent bookstore-afternoon potential. This is a men’s style; I’d check the measurements before choosing my fit.
Cotton Cable-knit Fisherman Sweater
Those wide turned-up cuffs deserve a moment. I’d pair the barrel shape with the green knit and burgundy flats.
Pilcro Kayden Barrel Leg Jeans
A scalloped edge makes even a little hair clip more interesting. The burgundy version is where I’d take this green-and-denim outfit.
Textured Scalloped Claw Clip
Burgundy flats with a little texture: yes, please. I’d let them do the polishing-up beneath those generous denim cuffs.
Eel-embossed Smoking Slippers
The curved shape and burgundy finish make a good companion to the green knit. I like the idea of echoing the shoes without matching every detail.
Eel-embossed Round Shoulder Bag
Prep Without the Prep
Fair Isle, with short sleeves and a black base. I’d take it slightly off script with a chocolate mini and burgundy tights.
Short-sleeve Fair Isle Sweater
A little burgundy between the skirt and shoes changes the whole outfit. I like this color with the black-and-cream knit.
J.Crew Tights, BV072
The chocolate brown is what brings this look together for me. I’d pair the low-rise mini with the patterned knit and a deliberately casual shoe.
Kitty Low Rise Mini Skirt
A sneaker with an open back is a fun change of pace. The brown-and-cream combination sits so nicely beside the Fair Isle sweater.
Back 70 Venice Mule Sneakers
That gathered top gives the dark brown tote a little personality. I’d keep it alongside the mini skirt and sneaker mules.
Maeve Cinched Tote Bag
Plaid After Dark
The brown plaid is the reason this made the edit. I’d wear it over the chocolate tee and let silver jewelry interrupt all those warm tones
Shiloh Blazer
Those broad pleats make the dark denim feel a little unexpected. I’d pair the midi length with tall brown boots and the plaid blazer.
TT Studios Tess Denim Midi Skirt
A chocolate mock neck to give the plaid and silver some breathing room. This one can stay very simple.
Pilcro Cyris Cotton Modal Mock Neck Tee
The square toe and slouched shaft are the details I’m here for. I’d show a little of that brown texture beneath the denim midi.
ALOHAS Kalila Boots
One sculptural silver loop is enough of a statement for me. I like it against a plaid sleeve.
Icon Silver Plated Ring
Those irregular links are much more interesting than a plain chain. I’d put them over the chocolate mock neck and call the jewelry sorted.
Icon Silver Plated Necklace
The sculptural links echo the necklace, with a toggle clasp as a little finishing detail. I’d choose this or the ring when I want a quieter version of the look.
Icon Silver Plated Bracelet
Sunday Knit Uniform
Big stitches, an ivory shade, and a cropped hem. I’d pair this knit with the suede-stripe jeans for a Sunday outfit worth leaving the house in.
Chunky Cropped Sweater
Brown velvet, crossing straps, and tiny beaded bow ends—there’s a lot to like here. I’d keep them visible beneath straight-leg jeans.
Zuri Ballet Flats
That amber-and-cream beaded strap feels like jewelry for a bag. The brown woven body makes me want to pair it with an ivory knit.
Berkeley Beaded Strap Bag
The brown suede stripe is such a good detail against blue denim. I’d echo it with the velvet flats and keep the top ivory.
Jesse Suede Stripe Jean
Ochre stripes and little red hearts: a very cheerful last detail. I’d give them a small gap between the jeans and flats.
