So September has arrived and you’re super excited about purchasing new cozy layers, PSLs, and filling your closet with as much plaid as humanely possible (or maybe the plaid thing is just me)! Then, you check your bank account and you’ve got about $100 for wardrobe money for September. And, if we are being perfectly honest with one another, you’re probably going to buy a few PSLs because it’s totally the right thing to do (#priorities)- so make that $85. How are you going to create all these cute fall looks?! You are a fashion forward woman who needs to look amazing 24/7. Girl- I’ve got you.
There is only one tip that you need to do for September (and that I have been doing religiously as well)! Go out to your local Forever21 and purchase a faux leather jacket (scroll down to the bottom to see my top picks all under $30)! September is an odd month since fall fashion is in full swing, but the temperatures are still warm. Use this to your advantage! Pick out your most feminine summer dresses (like the LWD in the back of your closet you’ve been needing an excuse to wear) and add that faux leather jacket over top.
Then, add your favorite flats or fall booties to complete the look. Voila! You are instantly chic for fall! Don’t have a pair of booties for fall yet?! I love this budget friendly pair I recently just purchased! 
You can also use shirts and button downs and tie them at the waist of your favorite summer dress like I did in this post here to create a skirt/crop top effect! By using this styling tip you are getting the most use out of the clothes AND staying within your budget!
Adding my favorite faux leather jacket and booties brings your grand total to $65! Just enough room to maybe squeeze in a little plaid;)
What do you think of this fall fashion tip?! I would love to hear from you in the comments below!

Love this look! You are 100% spot on about weather in September. It’s generally confused not knowing whether to be warm or cold leaving us all sweating in our blanket scarves.

The Seattle area is so weird because one day it will be sunny and warm. Then the next day will be cold, windy and rainy! Thank you so much for the kind words:)!

Thank you so much love! I think leather jackets (real or faux) are so chic:). I hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday!

I went into Forever the other day, and they had the most amazing leather jacket and it was under $50! They’ve really been killing it lately! And your flowy dress is so pretty!

Great post and beautiful pictures! I am so down with this being a great way to transition a wardrobe from summer to fall. In fact, I have missed being able to wear my faux leather moto jackets so much as it’s been WAY too hot to do so. I basically live in them all year round when I can, so I have been feeling a bit lost without that slightly edgier element to my outfits. I don’t own any LWD but maybe I should invest in one, and can you believe it but I actually had to look up what a PSL was? I guess it’s cos it’s not a thing here in Berlin yet…

No PSL’s in Berlin?! If you ever get the chance during the fall season I highly recommend trying one, they are SO good:). I am a girlie girl at heart, but sometime it’s fun to spice things up a bit and look edgier then I normally would! I can’t wait to see your leather jackets this season!

So pretty. Loved how you combined the leather jacket with this white flowy dress. So elegant and rockish at same time. Keep it up dear <3
