Check out outfit ideas for October 2021.

We’re fully into the fall season, and October 2021 includes layered looks that are functional yet fashionable. From plaid jackets to going-out dresses and ruffled blouses, these designs are so chic. A patent leather boot and crossbody bag can finish just about any look with ease.

You also can’t forget jeans. No matter the season, one can wear them in so many ways. A slim-fit pair of jeans go great with a cardigan sweater or cropped jacket. For dresses, a lace-embellished slip silhouette or long-sleeve style with pleating stands out.

A yellow plaid print mini skirt will have you feeling like Cher from Clueless. For outerwear, keep it classic in a wool greige coat featuring a relaxed fit. See more October style inspiration below!
