10 Cozy Outfit Ideas For Fall | AD
I know I’ve been saying this for about a month but it’s finally starting to cool down here in San Diego. I’m talking knitwear AND sweatpants weather… at least in the evenings. And each year, around this time, I’m reminded of the one place my wardrobe is lacking: the season-appropriate loungewear section. Sure an old tee and cotton shorts will suffice in the summer when less is truly more but the minute it drops below 65 degrees here I’m at a loss of what to wear. So today I’ve teamed up with Thread 4 Thought to show you some of my favorite sustainable loungewear and activewear and how I style them for Fall.
The Lightweight Jogger
I’m not exaggerating when I say I basically live in the Connie Joggers now. What I love most about them is that they’re lightweight and fleecey on the inside, so ideal for this time of year. I’ve used them as sleepwear on a few particularly brisk nights and I’ve worn them extensively for long days at my desk. I went with a navy blue to add a bit more color to my wardrobe.
How To Style
To keep things interesting styling-wise, I’ve paired the Connie Joggers with my go-to knit cardigan and a navy striped breton top for a comfy WFH look. To run errands, I’ve again gone with a striped tee (love a stripe), a lightweight utility jacket and the reusable tote bag that my order came with! If it were a bit chillier outdoors, I’d switch out my brown slide sandals for my beloved Veja Esplar sneakers. And when I want to be super warm and cozy at home for an evening in, I just throw on a chunky knit with my joggers and some casual Birks.
The Layering Basic
In Fall and Winter my style uniform of jeans and a tee doesn’t change much, but I do trade my short sleeve tee for a long sleeve option. This Leigh Long Sleeve Scoop Neck checks all the boxes for me: neckline, lightweight, relaxed fit and not too sheer. I love a lightweight long sleeve for layering under knitwear (helps cut down on washes) and itchier materials like wool.
How To Style
This long sleeve tee is super easy to style as it goes with virtually everything - as a good wardrobe basic should! My style uniform is casual and hassle-free for going out on weekends or WFH during the week. I always reach for a high-waisted slim or straight leg jean to tuck my tees into. I usually have a light jacket (shacket anyone?) or knit cardigan with me too. And for days when I want to feel more comfy but still look put together I reach for a pair of black stretchy pants with an elasticated waistband.
The Minimal Activewear Set
This year has spawned my love of chic activewear sets! Thread 4 Thought’s ReActive collection recycles plastic bottles and old fishing net into sustainable activewear. I’m wearing the Kensi Rib Sports Bra, a racerback top that gives a bit more coverage than your average sports bra. I always look for this style of a top in activewear because it feels more like a crop top than a bra and it’s super flattering in my opinion.
I paired them with the Arielle Rib Leggings, a chich high-waisted style. I love the ribbed detail of this set and the Heather Charcoal color acts as a soft neutral that breaks up my usual black. The leggings are a bit cropped on me (I’m 5’6 for reference) but this tends to be the case with leggings as most of my height is in my legs and torso, so I suspect these would be full-length on most people of the same height or shorter.
How To Style
Of course this set looks absolutely amazing all on its own but lets say you want to incorporate it into your daily looks. To achieve that effortless athleisure look, I’ve paired the Arielle Rib Leggings with the Leigh Long Sleeve, a wool shacket and my Birks. This is actually a look I would love to wear camping or even a chilled Autumn hike. And for that throw on and go look, just grab a classic denim jacket to pair with the set. If I’m just lounging around the house and still want to look cute, I’d pair the Kensi Rib Sports Bra with the Connie Joggers and a knit cardigan.
