1. A cozy turtleneck dress you can throw on with your over-the-knee boots. You don't have to wear a print or bright color to look totally ~stunning~ this season. (Though this does have a few patterns....)
2. A slinky slip dress that'll look sooooo hot but is prime for layering with all your fall faves. I own this dress and it's a total stunner! I should buy it in navy too, right? Right.
3. Or a leopard slip dress with an alluring slit you'll have to hide from yourself occasionally, lest you wear it five times a week! (But there are worse things.)
4. A gingham puff-sleeve dress you'd be sad you didn't own until after clicking *add to cart* after reading this story. I've owned it for approximately a month and have worn it at least once a week.
5. An airy nap dress I own and plan to wear into fall with a moto jacket and ankle boots. It's super easy to adjust the puff sleeves from on- to off-the-shoulder to fit your mood.
6. A ribbed maxi dress because you can't go outside in your perfectly worn-in PJs but this cozy 'fit will help you feel a bit closer to it.
7. A lightweight tunic that'll easily go with whatever pair of leggings are clean atm. (It's truly a struggle.)
8. A green maxi dress with just-dramatic-enough sleeves and a super comfy silhouette to keep you covered physically and fashionably.
9. A color-blocking lewk might have passersby green with envy. Not that you needed another slip dress, but that doesn't mean you don't WANT another slip dress. (Or perhaps I'm just projecting....)
10. A printed option that'll please folks who like some fabric on their arms but won't compromise on style.
11. Or a shorter boho dress ready for your tasseled jacket, wide-brim hat, and cowboy boots. I can picture you apple-picking in this right now.
12. An eyelet-flecked piece you'll find yourself wearing weekly. At *least* weekly, that is.
13. An animal print number with bell sleeves that you can also snag in Buffalo plaid and pair with leggings and boots all winter long.
14. An angelic option sure to set your heart aflutter. I own this and it's the *best* compliment bait.
15. A stellar velvet frock that'll turn any day that ends in -y into a total party.
16. A flowing shirt dress perf for fall activities like apple picking or sipping a hot toddy fireside... perhaps even on the same day!!! What a day that would be.
17. A solid dress with pockets with so much wardrobe versatility, you'll wonder why you didn't buy it in every color (there are 22, BTW!) from the start.
18. Bib overalls to get more wear out of your fave tops without worrying about pulling on leg prisons.
19. A pretty baby doll you can rock tightless while it's still a bit warm or with tights and combat boots to fight seasonal chills.
20. A snake-print midi sure to slither its way into your regular outfit rotation.
21. A gorgeous velvet dress – it'll feel so nice next time you hug yourself shivering in your still-somehow-frigid office.
22. A dramatic velvet beaut because if you're not dressing like a centuries-old vampire from an Ann Rice novel who's living it up in current times then what are you even doing with your life?
23. A colorful wrap dress for something that's office dress code-approps (or perf for that virtual interview) without being a total snore.
24. A flowy boho style you'll get a ton of use out of in other seasons. Reviewers have paired it with cowboy boots and tights for a fall-friendly look that'll make you fend off the compliments.
25. A striped beaut in case you like to keep things as comfy as possible. Turns out, we're kindred spirits!
26. A high-neck dress you simply must post on your Insta. Sorry, this is not up for debate.
27. A wrap sweater dress with bat wings that'll look so glam it should be illegal. But they'll also trap in some of that body heat bc you want other ppl to shake in your wake bc of your look. But no shivering for you.
28. A button-down dress that deserves a new home with all your other LBDs in your closet. Don't those sleeves set your heart aflutter?!
29. A ladylike polka-dot number that tbh I wouldn't be shocked if Kate Middleton wore. But it also has accommodating stretch, barely wrinkles, and will look so nice in any photos where you wanna look fab but don't wanna upstage your surroundings.
30. A stretchy vintage-style dress that'll make you feel 10x dressier, no matter the event. Even if it's just a coffee run! (Seriously, dress up for a coffee run if you want!)
31. A flowy ruffled-hem dress would look equally perfect with bare legs or your suede over-the-knee boots you CANNOT wait to pull out for the season.
32. A floral mesh gown for a red carpet-worthy reception...even if you're just popping into the grocery store for a loaf of bread on the way to an event.
33. A flowy shift dress here for you now and when it's finally (ugh) tights weather.
34. A fitted ruffled wrap dress that might just be the definition of "fun" if you look it up in the dictionary.
35. A long-sleeve swinging faux-wrap dress you can buy in a range of prints — because Amazon has that! Choices are always a good thing.
36. A sweater dress that'll look professional up top and be a party on the bottom.
37. A very comfy T-shirt dress with a little extra something-something thanks to the tie at the waist.
38. Or a classic T-shirt dress to keep it simple but stylish...which makes it a fantastic base for piling on the fall accessories.
39. A fit-and-flare midi dress in bold colors and pleated details if you wanna cover up both your arms and legs without compromising your style.
