Easy Fall Outfit Ideas for Moms Who Love Casual Style
We have been doing ALL the Fall things in October. We’ve enjoyed lots of walks in the woods (which our Bernese Mountain Dog LOVES!), a trip to the Adirondack Mountains to drive up Whiteface mountain and see the Fall foliage, plus backyard hangs, cozy fires in our woodstove, and getting the hot tub back up and running. We’re enjoying the Fall season immensely. Here are some of the outfits I’ve been wearing while enjoying it all!

These pants have been a favorite (you can see two more ways I’ve worn them in the previous blog post) and I loved pairing them with one of my favorite colors–chartreuse!

We did have a pretty warm day where I decided to wear these boxer shorts (that I own in 3 colors) and a cotton tee and cotton denim shirt. I love the mauve/pink color!

Loving this forest green color. It’s so pretty! I have this super cozy sweater in 4 colors now.

It’s not Fall without flannel! This one is 100% cotton and has the perfect oversized fit. It comes in 8 color combos and is just so good!

This is what I wore to explore the Adirondacks and Whiteface mountain (with an addition of a puffer pullover at the top of the mountain–pictured below). Super comfy!

We went to a game night at our friends’ house and this was comfy and I felt really good in it.

This is what I wore at the top of Whiteface Mountain–It’s about 15 degrees colder up there than at the base of the mountain.

This sweat set is so comfy. Perfect for a slow morning around the house.

Like I said, we’ve been taking lots of walks in the woods and enjoying the fresh air and pretty leaves.

Love this bright cherry red cardigan. It’s so fun for a pop of color and going into the holiday season too!

These khaki pants are so comfy with a stretchy elastic waistband all the way around. They’re so cute dressed up or dressed down.

Personally, I think chartreuse and green is an underrated color combo. It looks so good together!

Needed a comfy cozy outfit for a little birthday celebration for my oldest (he’s 9! I can’t even believe it!) and this worked so well.

Tops to Wear with Barrel Jeans
Okayyy, so you grabbed the barrel jeans and yes—they’re insanely comfy—but now you’re staring at your closet like… what do I even wear with these?! Don’t worry, I’ve got you. Here are 5 cozy tops I’m pairing with mine for cooler weather!

1. A basic long sleeve
A basic long sleeve top is the easiest one to think of, in my opinion. A basic long sleeve looks great tucked into a pair of barrel jeans. Add a necklace, scarf, or vest or accessory to make it even more fun!

2. A sweater
your sweater can be a crewneck, a v-neck, a boat neck or any type. Mine is a crewneck and it’s a little more oversized with a kind of high-low hem. It’s one of my favorites and I think it looks so cozy with barrel jeans.

3. A cardigan (unbuttoned as a layer or buttoned as a top)
A cardigan is one of my favorite layering pieces. Throw it over a tank, a tee, or a long sleeve and you’re super cozy. In the last few years I’ve also started wearing cardigans as tops, which is a great way to get more wear out of your cardigans!

4. A sweatshirt
I’m wearing a crewneck sweatshirt here, but it can be a henley sweatshirt, a 1/2 zip sweatshirt, or whichever type is your favorite. I think this is a cute and casual look paired with the barrel jeans.

5. A blouse
I don’t have a whole lot of blouses in my wardrobe, but I do like to have a few for an easy and cute top to pair with jeans. This green one has a more cropped fit, so it pairs well with the barrel jeans. If I was wearing a less cropped blouse, I would probably do a little front tuck.
