I’m A Fashion Editor: Here Are The Fall Staples I’m Buying Before They Sell Out
Christian Girl Autumn is officially here (I saw one leaf fall outside my window and immediately lit a candle—don’t judge). Which means my favorite seasonal sport has begun: aggressively refreshing “new arrivals” pages and pretending it’s research.

Here’s the thing: fall dressing is magic. One minute you’re layering a blazer over a silky dress for the office, the next you’re pulling on chunky knits and boots for a pumpkin patch photo op. It’s cozy and chic, practical and a little extra, which is basically the vibe I aspire to year-round.
As a fashion editor, I scroll through thousands of products so you don’t have to. (Seriously, my screen time is between me and God.) And what I’ve landed on are the staples: the pieces that’ll carry you from the first PSL sip straight through to Thanksgiving leftovers.
Whether you’re heading to your first college lecture, vying for that corner office with the view, or staying home with littles while plotting the day around nap schedules, you deserve a wardrobe that makes you feel pulled together and lowkey stunning. And yes, it is 100% possible to mix a splurge-worthy coat with jeans you found on Amazon and look like you have your entire life figured out.
So before the best stuff inevitably sells out, here’s my hit list of fall staples worth snagging. Cozy sweaters, dreamy denim, shoes you’ll actually want to walk in, aka everything you need to romanticize the season without spending three hours in your closet every morning.
