I love fall for marathon training as much as I love it for shopping for fall clothes. Right now I am obsessed with boots, sweaters, scarves, and dark denim jeans. I complied some of my favorite items that are all under $100. Some I own, some I have been eyeing–all are super cute and affordable.
Cardigans – Everyone needs a cute, cozy cardigan in their wardrobe. For a while I got tired of wearing cardigans, but now I can’t get enough of them–this one in particular! I want one in every color, especially the one pictured above. This cardigan at Nordstrom is also a popular option and a similar color. I’m also a sucker for a cute boyfriend cardigan, and this one looks really cute. If you want to spend a little more, this cardigan is a big hit among the fashion bloggers, and you can’t help but deny the 2000 5-star reviews.
Scarves – Cozy scarves, blanket scarves, infinity scarves, you name it, they’re all essential for fall. The scarf pictured above is one I own, and it is great because it goes with so many different outfits. Plus, it is only $19. I also really like this plaid scarf from Loft, and it looks so cozy.
Boots – I almost always end up purchasing a new pair of boots for the fall, and this pair in the image above is the top pair on my ‘want’ list. I also think this pair are really cute. Maybe I could justify another pair since I don’t have a black pair. (*wink, wink*)
Earrings – Fun fact: I didn’t get my ears pierced until I was a senior in high school. Maybe for that reason I like big statement earrings like these pictured above. Actually, I also like simple earrings like this pair.
Dresses – In the past I’ve struggled to find cute long sleeve dresses, but I definitely found a handful at Loft. The one pictured above looks so cute, fun, and practical to wear to most work places. Plus, it is 40% off with the code: FALLFEST.
Black jeans – I wasn’t sure I would wear black jeans that much, so I picked up this pair last year since there were reasonable, and I actually wore them more than I thought I would. The bonus is that they fit like a dream–no exaggeration–and they are currently on sale for $22!
Chambray shirt – If I were doing a capsule wardrobe, this chambray top would definitely be in it. I wear mine all the time, and it goes with so much. Here is another option that’s less than $27.
Dark denim jeans – I’m all about dark denim for the winter months, and this pair of jeans is very similar to a pair I own and currently on sale for less than $100.
Hat – Holy moly! This style of hat is all over my feed from the fashion bloggers I follow, and they all look super cute in it.
Anorak jacket – I love a good anorak jacket. I purchased one very similar to this one a couple falls ago, and I still wear it all the time. Mine is a forget green color, and I love the color for fall.
We are having a perfect almost-too-good-to-be-true fall here, and I am not complaining! I can actually wear cute fall clothes before my outfits will require way too many layers. This nice weather has also made training for the NYC Marathon so much more enjoyable. I have one more week of build-up, and then I will start to taper for the marathon! It is going to be here so soon!
