There’s something about the first hint of crisp fall air that makes us ready to refresh our closets. After months of sundresses, sandals and lightweight layers, fall gives us an excuse to bring back cozy knits, rich seasonal colors, great denim and all those effortless layers we love.

This season, Soft Surroundings is making the transition especially easy with pieces that blend comfort with polished, put together style. Whether you’re heading to the office, meeting friends for brunch, running errands or planning a fall weekend away, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite new arrivals to help you step into the season in style.

The Sweater You’ll Reach for Again and Again

Shaker Mock Neck Whip Stitch Sweater

Nothing says fall quite like a great sweater. We love a knit that feels cozy without looking overly casual, making it just as easy to pair with your favorite jeans for the weekend as it is to dress up with trousers and boots. Add a simple necklace or scarf, and you have one of those effortless outfits that looks like you spent much more time putting it together than you actually did.

The Perfect Fall Layer

Marled Metallic Fringe Trim Sweater Vest

Fall weather can change by the hour, which makes a versatile layering piece one of the smartest additions to your seasonal wardrobe. This pick is perfect for throwing over a simple tee, blouse or lightweight sweater when temperatures start to dip. Pair it with denim bootcut jeans for an easy everyday look that can take you from morning errands straight through dinner.

Denim Made for Fall Days

Comfort Knit Denim Wide Leg Pull On Jeans

A fresh pair of jeans can instantly update your fall wardrobe. These jeans have a soft knit fabric, pull-on waist and wide-leg silhouette that make them an everyday staple. Soft Surroundings offers denim in a variety of silhouettes, including slim, straight, bootcut and wide-leg styles, making it easy to find a shape that works with the pieces already hanging in your closet.

For fall, we love denim paired with a soft sweater or printed blouse and your favorite boots. It’s classic, comfortable and endlessly wearable.

The Elevated Everyday Top

Folklore Long Sleeve Big Shirt

The best fall wardrobes are built around pieces you can wear more than one way, and a beautiful top is one of the easiest places to start. This Folklore Big Shirt’s artful print and  relaxed silhouette can make even a simple pair of jeans feel pulled together.

Wear this one on its own while the weather is still mild, then layer it under a cardigan or jacket as the season gets cooler.

The Skirt That Make Getting Dressed Easy

Problem Solved Paneled Ponte Midi Skirt

Comfort and style absolutely can coexist. A beautiful, long skirt is a fall wardrobe essential, especially when you find one comfortable enough for an entire day of work, errands or travel.

Pair this with a tucked-in blouse and heels, or keep things casual with a cozy knit and flats. 

A Dress Made for Fall Plans

Terrific Tartan Dress

Fall calendars fill up quickly with dinners, celebrations, work events and weekend get-togethers, which is why having a versatile dress ready to go is always a good idea.

Add boots and a jacket for daytime, then switch to heels and statement jewelry for an evening out. A dress that can transition between occasions earns major bonus points in our closets.

The Statement Piece

Enchanted Garden Blouse

Every wardrobe needs at least one piece that does the styling for you. Whether it’s an artful print, beautiful texture, embroidery or an unexpected detail, this is the kind of find that can turn simple basics into an outfit.

Keep everything else understated and let this piece take center stage.

Sometimes a few thoughtfully chosen pieces are all it takes to make everything you already own feel new again.

With cozy textures, flattering silhouettes, beautiful seasonal colors and plenty of pieces designed for layering, Soft Surroundings’ new arrivals make it easy to create a wardrobe that’s as comfortable as it is stylish.
