Another month of fall is coming to an end, and it’s a telltale sign that the holidays are near. Soon enough, we’ll be counting down till the new year, but until then it’s a great time to start pre-planning a few holiday outfits. If you have no designated plans, you can always invest in winter staples to brave you through the cold. I know that choosing which fashion items to spend your money on during this time of the year can be hard. So to get you started on what might work for several months of freezing weather – or more festive pieces for party season, I’m sharing October’s most popular items that are worth your attention.

I’m happy to see that this Burberry trench coat is still going strong because I have been wearing mine so much. You won’t regret splurging on a Burberry trench because it’s such a classic stunner. The fitted waist and slim-cut sleeves ensure it looks lovely belted or open for a more casual look.

I’m glad that you guys loved this sweater as much as I did. The distressed detailing and shoulder cut out makes it such a unique, casual piece to wear with jeans and booties. It’s available in four other colors that are worth checking out.

My Gucci belt remains one of my most worn designer pieces to date. I love how it’s so sturdy and continues to holds its shape despite going through so many wears now. All in all, it’s worth the high price. If you’re looking for a detailed review on this belt, you can refer back to this post here.

This H&M tunic sweater has been a top seller all month long, and I’m not surprised considering it’s such a versatile piece. I’ve mentioned before that I love these tunic style sweaters because I can wear them as a sweater dress with over the knee boots. However, they look just as stylish paired with denim or tights.

Chloe has a way of creating gorgeous cult handbags, and the Faye bag is one of them. I love the chain detailing and the mix of leather and suede. Although it’s such a chic and sleek designer handbag, it is so delicate and requires extra love and care.

I wear denim almost every day and one of my go-to brands is GRLFRND. The high-waisted style and cropped inseam on this pair is so flattering on my frame and height. I often tuck my tops into my jeans or wear cropped sweaters, so I love how this pair really elongates my legs.

This adorable leather skirt looks more luxe and expensive than it actually is – and it’s so figure flattering. It’s the perfect mix of classy and sexy. At under $50, this piece is a steal and will make a great partner for all your cozy sweaters.
