Fall is right around the corner, and fashion people everywhere are discussing what their top autumnal wardrobe picks might be. While I love a trendy moment as much as the next style enthusiast, many in the fashion set lean on timeless staples that have staying power when updating their closets. There are three specific fall fashion items that I notice every fashion person either already owns or plans to buy in the next couple of months. Enter dark-wash jeans, suede handbags, and loafers.

Since I spend hours digging through the online retail landscape, I've decided to highlight shopping recommendations for each item. You can expect a range of affordable price points with the occasional luxury item squirreled into the bunch. Top brands such as Levi's, Tony Bianco, The Row, and DeMellier make an appearance—among many others. Keep scrolling to uncover your soon-to-be favorite wardrobe items.

Dark-Wash Denim

It's time to update your denim rotation for fall. While I'm a big believer in wearing any wash you please all year long, there's no denying the staying power of sophisticated dark-wash jeans.

Suede Handbags

Rich textures and the fall season go hand in hand. A warm, chocolatey suede handbag is an anti-trend fall pick that you'll utilize for many years to come. Whether you're into a large tote, medium-sized shoulder bag, or even an east-west style, I've got you covered with a slew of beautiful options ripe for the taking.

Loafers

Loafers are timeless and truly never go out of style. Currently, a sleek, classic-looking silhouette is trending, and The Row's loafers are really leading the charge in terms of what aesthetic fashion people are coveting for their fall shoe rotation. If a luxury pair is out of your budget, many brands are making high-quality alternatives that are excellent options.
