Welcome back to fall, where the PSLs and pumpkins are brewing. On the West Coast, the temperature doesn’t drop drastically, and a blazer is all you need to transition your outfits from Summer to Fall. This timeless staple elevates a simple ensemble into something sophisticated and chic. Keep reading to see California Fall 2022 Outfit Ideas to try this season. I’ll be reaching for these pairings all season long.
Look 1: Leather Blazer + Knit Sweater
The Leather Blazer + Knit Sweater Combination provides the best of both worlds; a bit of edge with a sprinkle of coastal grandmother. I love pairing these tops with classic light wash jeans and tennis shoes; however, you can easily dress up this outfit idea with a loafer or bootie.
Look 2: The Oversized Plaid Blazer
If you don’t own an oversized plaid blazer, consider adding one to your capsule wardrobe. I love thrifting vintage pieces, but many stores like H&M and Abercrombie have various blazer pieces that still create a timeless look. I consider a plaid blazer a neutral staple in my wardrobe that can complete a T-shirt and jeans outfit or jazz up a simple slip dress.
Look 3: The Italian Tuxedo
You’ve likely heard of the denim on denim Canadian Tuxedo, but pairing leather on leather feels true to my Italian roots. I love breaking up an all-leather look with a simple t-shirt or thin sweater, and adding a baseball cap can create a cool street-style look without looking too sporty. It’s the perfect fit for day or night.
Look 4: Comfy + Cool
Whether grabbing coffee after the gym, going for a hot girl walk, or running errands, it’s crucial to have token cute, yet comfortable pieces on hand. This outfit features one of my favorite quarter zip sweatshirts rather than a blazer for that casual post pilates look. Throw on one of the blazers mentioned earlier to dress this biker short outfit up for a happy hour or dinner.
