It's Time to Spruce Up My Fall Wardrobe—These 9 Pieces Do Just the Trick

I might be biased, but I'm pretty sure I work with the most fashionable people out there. I'm sure my coworkers get tired of sending me links to the sites where they buy their clothes, but you'd probably ask for the same if you saw them out and about in their impeccable outfits. Since my closet needs a little sprucing up for fall, I reached out to my always-stylish team member and friend, Mollie Mandel, to see what she has in store for the cooler months ahead. And luckily, she spilled the tea and told me the spot where she's snagging a ton of pieces (including cowboy boots and knit dresses) for her fall wardrobe. What's her go-to store? Free People. I mean, I'm not surprised. The retailer kills it season after season with its incredible selection of on-trend styles. Want to see the 'fits Mandel has put together? Keep scrolling.

I've said it time and time again: I am a dress person. It doesn't take a lot of effort to convince me to add a cute dress to my cart. And when Mandel sent me this look, I knew I had to have not only the mini dress but the boots as well. The two pieces paired together just work. I already see myself wearing this outfit on repeat this season.

This could have been your average t-shirt and jeans look, but Mandel made it look effortlessly cool. I love how she casually threw the sweater over her shoulders (a great move in this unpredictable fall weather) and wore a baseball hat to bring the whole outfit together. And the cowboy boots? The perfect on-trend touch.
