Although the leaves have not yet begun to change on the East Coast, it’s safe to say that most people are well prepared for fall. After an incredibly hot summer, I’m looking forward to crisp, sunny mornings, cool evening temperatures, and perhaps a fall foliage tour well before Halloween. But first, I need to make a weekend of it and change up my seasonal wardrobe. Thanks to my small New York apartment and even smaller closet, I end up taking chunky fall sweaters, cashmere knits, and leather jackets out of the under-bed storage and into the closet.
While I enjoy unearthing forgotten gems from my wardrobe, I’m not afraid to admit that fall is my favorite season to shop for clothes. This year, I’m hoping to swap out my worn-out basics like button-up shirts and blue jeans, add some fun statement pieces, and oh yeah, maybe even some new sweaters. Hey, there’s a reason we wear sweaters weather, right?
I love classic styles, so I always make it a point to stop by Gap every season to see what’s new. And although I haven’t been in the store yet, I’ve spent hours scrolling through Gap’s fall new releases. Yes, very good.
