One closet item we definitely don’t see enough is the sweater dress. It’s an extremely feminine look that is comfortable, practical for the fall and stylish. The sweater dress is an easy and versatile look, which goes great with leggings or stockings and a pair of boots or even flats. Ayda Ahmadi chooses to go for a more edgy look by pairing her sweater dress with tall combat boots but adds a personal touch by accessorizing with a vintage bag and jewelry.

The leather jacket is not only a must-have item for this fall but it’s a classic look that will never go out of style. What’s great about the jacket is that you don’t need to go over the top with the rest of your outfit. All you need to do is match it with a well-fitted pair of jeans and a white tee and you’re ready to go.
