We spent our Saturday doing quintessential fall activities on the most gorgeous autumn day imaginable, eating our way through a garlic festival then picking up apples and pumpkins at a local farm. It was the perfect chance for me to recreate a casual fall look from Pop of Style which I had pinned months ago, but never actually put together - until now! All you need is a black and white checked shirt, military or cargo style vest, and some colored leggings. Riding boots complete the look. I added a layering tee since I'm 33 weeks pregnant but don't let that deter you from trying this look. Just button up the check shirt and you're all set. Read on for my budget-friendly finds to help you get this casual fall look with pieces under $40, and head to Pop of Style to see the original inspiration photo!

Leopard pants look city-chic and sophisticated for fall paired with all black extras, like a chunky sweater, high-heel ankle boots and a black felt hat. Plus this look relies on the old budget style tip that says black always looks more expensive than other colors! Read on to get my budget friendly picks under $40 to help you recreate this look without breaking the bank...

Is there anything more quintessentially fall than a plaid scarf? Paired with a classic quilted jacket and camel sweater, it's an autumnal fashion match made in heaven, as demonstrated by this look I found on Pinterest (HERE). You might already have all the pieces necessary to recreate this look in your closet, but if not, read on for my budget friendly finds - everything I photographed for the collage (above right) is under $40!

How do you take your favorite little black dress into fall? With a luxe blanket scarf, over-the-knee boots and structured satchel - that's how. Today's fall outfit idea got lots of love on Instagram, so I thought I'd link up to some of the pieces you need to recreate this look here on the blog. So let's get started!

I've got another fall outfit for you ladies today inspired by a look I found on Pinterest. It's a really good combination of rich fall colors and textures that's easy to wear yet makes a chic fashion statement. First, I'll start by saying that I found awesome camo pants at Sears and Forever 21 just this past week at the mall. However. I can't find either pair online! Figures. So I've rounded up some other options for you in case you can't make it to a store (but I highly recommend you check Sears for the camo pants featured above first, they're just $12.99 by Bongo!)
