1. A cozy wrap sweater dress that'll go ~perfectly~ with the ultimate fall accessory — a piping hot PSL. You could've told me it was from Free People and I 100% would've believed you.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "Okay, I am totally in love with this dress. I am always skeptical buying clothes online, especially dresses, when I can’t try them on. But WOW. This dress is so beautiful. It fits like a dream and the material is such wonderful quality. I have already bought it in two colors. I love the tight fit and that it’s not too tight, but just tight enough. This dress keeps me incredibly warm as well so I can totally wear it during wintertime! I love that the tie is a separate piece because you can make it just how you want. It’s a perfect fit! I have nothing bad to say about this dress, and I can’t wait to buy more!! :)" —Katie
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 22 colors).
2. A seriously *stunning* slip dress perfect for layering under your favorite leather jacket or trench coat. Wear it with heels and you've got yourself an evening dress or pair it with ankle boots for an impossibly cool (and affordable!) fall look.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "Effortless, beautiful dress. This dress looks silky and high quality, and can pair well with any jacket. It still looks great after machine wash and machine dry." —Kelley Cramson
Get it from Amazon for $44+ (available in sizes XXS–5X and 21 colors)
3. An ever-so-oversize blazer, because if you've been holding off on purchasing one of these essentials due to cost, today's your lucky day! Not only will it go with all of your fall duds — from jeans to leather leggings — but it'll also instantly polish up your look with barely any effort.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "Just fabulous! Looks much more expensive. Good quality and fit! Just the right weight for fall into winter for sure!!!!" —karen Conner
Get it from Amazon for $69.90 (available in sizes XXS–5X and nine colors).
4. An affordable pair of lace-up combat boots lots of reviewers say are a solid Dr. Martens dupe (for a fraction of the cost!). Leggings, meet your new BFF.
Promising review: "These are pretty darn awesome. Love how they have the side zipper to put them on easily in addition to the normal lace-up. The heel is a perfect height and they have a solid feel, but not too heavy. The contrasting stitching gives the boot a great look. They are comfortable and true to size. If you are looking for a pair of combat boots at a great price, these are it. Love 'em!" —Implied Queens
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes 5.5–10 and three styles)
5. A very reasonably priced yet stylish long-sleeved sheath dress complete with a tie-waist belt you can gussy up with tights and pumps or tone down with some boots and a denim jacket. Your obligatory orchard photo shoots just got a whole lot cuter.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "I bought this dress for a fall wedding. It was absolutely PERFECT. I’m not one who likes to wear dresses, as I am more a 'leggings and T-shirt' person but this dress I would wear every week! I 100% recommend." —Kelsey Ellis
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 23 colors/prints).
6. A casual-chic oversize sweatshirt and shorts duo, because I can't be the only one who gets excited about "shorts-and-long-sleeves" weather. This lovely matching set looks like it's from a high-end loungewear brand but costs less than 50 bucks for the whole shebang.
Promising review: "Most comfortable outfit everrrrr! Bought for my travel outfit for my bachelorette trip and now wear it alllll the time because it’s so comfy and GREAT quality! Plan to order in other colors!" —Adrianna B.
Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 15 colors).
7. A flow-y pair of palazzo pants you'll want in every gorgeous design they come in once you feel how roomy they are. Dust off your chunky boots, throw on a cute long-sleeved, and you've got yourself an A+ fall outfit without blowing your budget.
Promising review: "I ended up buying five pairs in different colors and talked a friend into one. (She loves them). These are top quality. Tailored like fine trousers. Extremely comfortable, soft, flowing material. I can wear year round. Fit is perfect. Washed with no problem. I pressed a little because I like a polished look. They do not wrinkle with wearing. Bonus was they are such a good price!!!" —Chris
Get it from Amazon for $22.39+ (available in sizes XS–2X and 31 styles — not all styles available in all sizes).
8. A super-soft button-down that looks like it was just made for pumpkin patches and hayrides (and at under 20 bucks, is a total steal). Tuck it in, leave it out, tie it up — the limit does not exist.
Promising review: "Love this shirt! Definitely getting in the other colors. I’ve washed it once so far and no complaints." —Jenna Lauren
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 36 colors/patterns).
9. A chic pair of oversize sunglasses so you can unleash your inner Anna Wintour but without coughing up the cost of her signature Chanel shades. Just because summer's over doesn't mean you don't need eye protection!
Promising review: "My go-to glasses! I get so many compliments on these every time I wear them. They feel much more expensive than what I paid for them. They are indeed the definition of oversize glasses — with so much style and sass! Love them!" —Candace Skaggs
Another promising review: "Love love love!! These sunglasses are just what I wanted and look just like the super-expensive designer pair... I’m so happy I purchased them! You will not be disappointed!!" —michelle zimmerman
Get it from Amazon for $8.79+ (available in three styles).
10. Or a retro-inspired pair of cat eye sunglasses for anyone who loves a side of high-end vintage flair with their butternut squash EVERYTHING.
Promising review: "I simply LOVE THEM! Super trendy, comfy, and excellent quality for the price. They look and feel wayyy more expensive!" —Colorada_Colorida
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in nine styles).
11. An adorable wide-leg jumpsuit, which looks like it came straight out of an expensive linen collection rather than good old Amazon dot-com. It's giving very "cool art teacher" vibes and would look so cute under a chunky cardigan or light fall jacket.
Promising review: "I got this to be sort of a summer into fall transition item and I’m so surprised by how comfortable it is! If you like things to fit snugly on you, don’t bother getting this because it is loose everywhere unless you tighten it all the way, but it’s super breathable and comfortable! Especially for layering!" —Brie Parry
Get it from Amazon for $24.98+ (available in sizes XS–5XL and 12 colors).
12. A preppy mod pencil dress, because few things say "fall" quite like plaid. And when it's this inexpensive? Even better! The long sleeves will keep you warm on brisk days, and you can wear it with or without tights depending on the weather.
Promising review: "This dress is great for fall and winter in regards to both the pattern and material. The material isn't terribly thick but does insulate pretty well (it's polyester). I love that you can wear it with or without leggings and boots or pumps — hence, great for both fall and winter! I always get compliments when I wear this dress to work. The sleeves are slightly long on me but I don't mind the excess there as it can be easily pushed up OR useful when I'm trying to keep warm!" —Amanda
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 13 colors/patterns).
13. Or a swingy plaid pinafore dress that'll look *so* sharp with black tights and a fitted turtleneck this season. It's so friggin' adorable and won't break the bank, either. Just think of all the fancy fall drinks you'll be able to buy!
Promising review: "This dress makes me feel so cute and confident, and I get soooo many compliments when I wear it. I usually pair it with a black knit sweater or a gold velvet sweater and some ankle boots." —Abigail
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sizes L–5XL and 11 prints — not all styles available in all sizes).
14. A dreamy, peasant-style V-neck sweater with billowy sleeves and pleated shoulders for any hopeless romantic who feels nostalgic for a bygone era they never actually experienced. Fall is all about comfort and this top will make you feel oh, so cozy while looking like you dropped more cash than you actually did.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "This sweater is sooo soft. Love the detailing on the sleeves. Beautiful shade of blue. Perfect paired with a pair of jeans. Would look great with a skirt as well. Cannot stress how soft it is. So glad I purchased." —Tracy
Get it from Amazon for $44.90 (available in sizes XXS–3X and four colors).
15. A faux leather belt that's such a close dupe for the Gucci version, no one will be the wiser when you pair it with every fall jean, skirt, dress, and pant you own.
16. A luxe-looking asymmetric-hem turtleneck you can wear loose or half-tucked, depending on your mood. We see you, slouchy sweater season!
Prime members: You can try before you buy!

Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 33 colors/patterns).
17. Or a cropped turtleneck with gorgeous side buttons and flow-y drop sleeves if effortless sophistication without the astronomical price tag is what you're going for this season.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "This cropped turtleneck sweater is soo soft and comfy!! Perfect for my high-waisted jeans! So cute and the button detail gives it an extra flair. LOVE." —Amy M
Get it from Amazon for $44.90 (available in sizes XXS–3X and five colors).
18. A silky long-sleeved dress that'll probably become your new favorite fall/winter party outfit. Wear it with bare legs and heels when weather isn't an issue or slip on some tights and ankle boots when you need a little more coverage. Plus, the glam: Cost ratio is off the charts.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "A must-have! This dress is everything!!! I purchased the green color and it’s absolutely beautiful! I think it’s my new favorite dress! The fit and length were perfect!" —Jennifer Caldorera
Get it from Amazon for $54.90 (available in sizes XXS–5X and five colors).
19. A sleek pair of over-the-knee suede boots so you can keep rocking your favorite miniskirts even as the temps dip. And considering they're under 50 bucks, they're shockingly good designer dupes.
Promising review: "I was looking for a warm pair of boots to wear to an outdoor dinner party (it’s always cold where I live) and took a chance on these boots based on all of the positive reviews. I was a bit nervous about fit as I’m short and athletic. I needn’t have worried, these are fantastic! They look so much more expensive than they are and they fit this curvy girl like a dream. I did go one half-size up, and I’m glad that I did based on the toe box. So pleased!" —J C
Get it from Amazon for $46.99+ (available in sizes 5.5–11 and 28 colors).
20. A rustic-chic plaid button-down shacket for a little extra warmth on those in-between days when you could use an extra layer. Plus, it looks way more luxe than its low price point would imply. Did someone say "apple picking outfit"?
Promising review: "I absolutely love this!! Fits perfectly! It's long and a little big. How I want it. Quality is amazing! Very thick fabric. Will keep you warm with style!! Looks much better in person! I've received so many compliments!! I'm definitely ordering more in different colors. 😍" —Tonya Green
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 12 colors).
21. Or a super-cute corduroy shacket you'd swear came from Urban and cost twice as much. The *perfect* thing to wear while curled up in front of the fire.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "Great fall-weight piece to layer with. Loved the first one I ordered so much that I came back for a second color! Really good quality that doesn't break the bank. Recommend!" —January Rizzo
Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 44 colors).
22. An incredibly gorgeous backpack/crossbody bag hybrid no one will believe costs under 30 bucks because of how high quality it is. Plus, you're gonna need a place for stashing all of that candy corn...
Promising review: "I LOVE this bag. The quality of it is really great and I love that it has a zippered pocket and a couple of open pockets inside. I also love that it can be worn as a backpack or crossbody. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a smaller yet very functional bag." —Lezlie
Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in 11 colors).
23. Or a sweet mini crossbody bag made of vegan leather to tote around your essentials from one haunted hayride to another. It looks so much splurgier than it is so it's no wonder it's graced Oprah's Favorite Things list. 👀
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "This was a perfect purse for traveling. It has three very spacious zippered pockets. I was able to carry my iPhone, AirPods, glasses (in their case), and mini coin purse that carries my cash, ID, and bank card. I loved that it had a long-enough strap to wear it like a crossbody bag. Good construction and material." —M. Steffes
Another promising review: "I love this little bag. It’s just small enough to hold everything you want to carry. The price is right and it looks like an expensive bag." —Sharon Pate-Martin
Get it from Amazon for $29.92+ (available in tassel and non-tassel designs and 19 colors).
24. A colorful, '70s-inspired striped top you'd be surprised didn't come straight out of a high-end vintage shop. Those eye-popping colors are even bolder than the changing leaves and the fitted design will look great with all of your cute high-waisted pants.
Promising review: "Great striped top with retro flair. I absolutely love this shirt! I've already worn it several times since it arrived in the mail a few weeks ago. It fits true to size, is very comfortable, and easy to style. Definitely a new wardrobe favorite." —Tori Radday
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and 11 patterns).
25. A sleek off-shoulder jumpsuit for anyone who identifies as Team Pants > Skirts when it comes to dressing up. Seriously, it's so pretty and expensive-looking, it'll have your fall dresses quaking in their boots when they discover it in your closet.
Promising review: "I wore this to a wedding and got so many compliments! Not to mention, I have nine kids so I was running around and picking things up and shepherding everyone like usual, and this jumpsuit allowed me to do all that while looking good and feeling comfortable. Highly recommend!" —Dustin
Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and seven colors).
26. A versatile chunky ankle boot you'll love pairing with tights in the fall and cropped pants during the warmer months. And no, they're not hundreds of dollars but you'd never know it.
Promising review: "I love everything about these boots. They are well made, very fashionable, and comfortable. I was a little concerned about the height of the heel being uncomfortable but I wore them to work all day and didn't have any problems with my feet hurting. Very happy with my purchase!" —momtojsh
Get it from Amazon for $22.23+ (available in sizes 5.5–11 and seven styles).
27. And a stretchy pair of block-heel boots that look like they belong at Nordstrom for a whole lot more than they actually cost. The thick lug sole provides ample traction to keep you from wiping out on slippery sidewalks so bring it on, wet fall weather!
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "They're very cute and high quality! The only thing is they are a little snug to slip on and off but they are extremely comfortable. They are a wide set, which is perfect to wear thicker socks with. And the bottom has stars! I want them in every color." —Angie
Get it from Amazon for $47.98+ (available in sizes 5–11 and 20 colors).
28. A beautiful high-collared button-down for anyone with a "more is more" ethos, because the details on this top never end — pearl buttons, lacy embroidery, slightly puffed sleeves, ruffles! High-end vintage vibes for under 30 bucks (and yes, you can wear white even though it's after Labor Day).
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
It's hand-wash only, but worth it!
Promising review: "JUST GET IT! I had this blouse in my cart for a while and finally decided to purchase. I LOVE IT! It's gorgeous and I can't wait to wear it. I think it's so unique because it has a vintage look but also has a lot of versatility. It could be paired with high-waisted jeans, trousers, or skirts. I hope you love it too!!!" —ChristineMarie
Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in sizes 2–20 and in black or white).
29. A downright ~exquisite~ box clutch to add some much-needed color to your all-black fall wardrobe without having to drop serious cash. And aside from all its razzle-dazzle, it's also versatile since it can be worn as a crossbody bag.
30. A very affordable loafer one reviewer said they preferred over their Gucci pair! Another said they don't require breaking in and the closed-toe, open-top design makes it the perfect transition weather shoe.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE these shoes! They are super comfy and adorable! I have a wide foot so I went up a half-size. They fit great! Despite the pointy look, my toes are not squished. The material of the shoe is a soft, suede-like fabric so it stretches. No need to break-in the shoes." —CSG
Get it from Amazon for $16.34+ (available in sizes 5–15, including wide sizes, and 12 styles).
31. A downright glamorous pleated button-down set that frankly has no right being this gorg when you consider the entire look costs less than 50 bucks. It's lightweight enough for warmer fall days but also great for layering, and it'll easily take you from day to night.
One reviewer even said they looked like they "walked out of a Gucci magazine" while wearing it!
Promising review: "I don’t normally leave reviews but this set is so much more beautiful in person! I didn’t stop getting compliments on how cute it is and where I got it from. Super comfortable and lightweight. Don’t hesitate and just get it! Perfect for day to nighttime." —Natalie
Get it from Amazon for $23.49+ (available in sizes S–XL, in shorts or pants, and 17 colors/prints).
32. A shiny metallic pleated maxi skirt, which will give your wardrobe some mood-boosting shimmer once the leaves have gone from vibrant red to muddy brown. We love a good fancy-on-a-budget piece and it'll be perfect once holiday party season is in full swing!
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
I'm a fan of both pictured looks but the one that pairs the skirt with a hoodie and sneakers is a straight-up master class in glam meets casual styling. 💯
Promising review: "This skirt can be worn either fancy or casual. The shimmer on the skirt is just perfect: not too much and not too little. It really dresses up anything you wear with it. I purchased this skirt for my daughter's wedding, wearing it with a beautiful lace off-the-shoulder top. It looks stunning together. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to look amazing. LOVE THIS SKIRT!" —S Bozz
Get it from Amazon for $15.96+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and eight colors, as well as a midi style).
33. And finally, an eye-catching leopard-sleeved sweater that'll stun everyone when they learn it's not by a swanky designer brand. Oh, and it would make the cutest "passing out candy on Halloween" top if you're not a full-on costume person.
Promising review: "Love this sweater. Went up a size from my normal size and it fits well. Sleeves are almost short but still look perfect. I am soooo happy with this purchase. It’s such a different sweater from anything I’ve seen and so much fun to wear. It’s a perfect length, too. The green is beautiful. It’s not as emerald as the picture suggests but it’s still really pretty." —Kate G.
Get it from Amazon for $35.98+ (available in sizes S–XL and 14 colors).
