My Accidental Fall Capsule Wardrobe: The Only 8 Things I'm Wearing on Repeat

As someone who loves shopping way too much to limit themselves to a set quantity of fashion items, I have to say I’ve never really been a capsule-wardrobe person. Trust me—I commend those people, and my wallet and storage situation would both be all the better for it were I one of them, but sadly not all things are meant to be.

Interestingly, however, this season I realized that despite everything I’ve bought and already owned, something of a capsule wardrobe has in fact developed in my day-to-day style, with eight items doing the majority of the heavy lifting for most of my outfits. Curious to know just what they are? Keep scrolling to see and read about the eight pieces I’ve been wearing on repeat all season long, and while you’re at it, shop them along the way.

As you're about to see, I don't wear a lot of blouses, pants that aren't jeans, or heels on a day-to-day basis, so blazers are my way of adding at least one polished piece to any outfit as of late. 
While I'm a fan of most boot styles—too many, in fact—I tend to stick to just one color when shopping and dressing, and that's black. Not only does the shade ensure a pair will be versatile, but it also ties an outfit together way more than a colored or lighter neutral boot would. 
As I've mentioned already, I'm very into cardigans right now, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. I love wearing them alone, layered over tops, as jackets, under jackets, over my shoulders, and any other way one can imagine. As such, I've acquired quite a few so far this season and will likely be adding even more as we get into winter. 
My ideal denim for the season is not too long, not too short, but just right. I have a black pair, a gray pair, and the blue pair above, all of which meet my criteria, and I've been rotating the three daily depending on what else I'm wearing and the general vibe I'm going for. 
Think anything animal-inspired, from snake-print to croc-embossed to fur and shearling (or, of course, faux). For me, this season, the easiest way to spice up an outfit has been with a wild (but still neutral) bag, and it's a trick I highly recommend. 
Of everything in this roundup, these are probably the most "essential" to not just my but any fall wardrobe. From tees to turtlenecks to mock necks and thin sweaters, I rely on an arsenal of easy layering tops to wear with the blazers above, the shackets you're about to see below, and everything else. Having those squared away makes getting dressed every day so much easier. 
You know the shirt-jacket hybrid? Turns out it makes for the perfect fall outerwear option. I have the above faux-leather one, an old suede style, and my eyes on a few more to wear throughout the rest of the season then into winter layered under coats. 
Lately, whenever I've needed (or deserved) a break from my black boots, my flat shoe style of choice has been a pair of retro sneakers. It's partly a random mood thing that has drawn me to them, but they also just sit perfectly with all my new, long-ish jeans (as seen below), and I just love the way they look.

Up next: Trust me—buy these 24 things.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...

Katy Perry Takes Inspiration From "Kill Bill" in Yellow Moto Jacket and Low-Rise Jeans

Katy Perry is making the press rounds ahead of the upcoming season of "American Idol." On March 28, the competition judge and singer was spotted leaving "Good Morning America" in casual, off-duty street style that turned heads. She wore distressed, low-rise R13 Denim jeans that sat at her hips, as well as a white baby tee under a cropped leather Balenciaga jacket . With its thick black stripes running down the sleeves, the yellow race jacket was reminiscent of Uma Thurman 's iconic tracksuit in "Kill Bill." Wearing an assortment of rings on each of her left fingers, Perry also carried a yellow coffee cup with her other hand to match her jacket. As for the rest of her cool outfit, which was curated by stylist Tatiana Waterford , pointed black heels peeked out from the floor-length denim and sporty cat-eye sunglasses shielded the singer's eyes. The edgy ensemble was one of three outfits she wore on Tuesday. Perry arrived on the morning-show set ...
