Off the Rack: Fall Finds From $12.99 at Marshalls

Fall fashions at Marshalls are affordable and on-trend.
Yesterday I had one of those rare "I'm a great mom! I can do this!" days, and it included a little trip to Marshalls with two amazingly well-behaved boys. I wanted to scope out the fall fashion for you guys, and I was really pleased to find a ton of on-trend pieces mostly under $30 for clothes and under $60 for boots and bags. I only made it through the contemporary/juniors department on this trip, and that's where I found lots of cozy sweaters like geo print cardigans and loose weave pullovers in shades of olive, burgundy, navy and tan.

For denim, I saw all the colors I'm on the hunt for...essential olive skinnies (which I recently purchased at T.J.Maxx), plus dusty rose, oxblood, black and tan. For bags, crossbody styles still dominate as do boho details like patchwork, fringe, tassels and braid detailing. Many bags reminded me of the Chloe "It" bags: Marcie, Drew and Hudson. In the shoe department, it's all ankle boots...brands that stood out included Steve Madden, Franco Sarto, Sam Edelman and Lucky Brand.

I used to just go to Marshalls and scour the racks for designer brands, but now I tend to shop more with specific pieces in mind, say, a sweater vest or cognac ankle boot, and I've been more successful on my shopping trips. This time I bought an Italian leather crossbody bag in a rich oxblood hue and while I don't recognize the brand, the bag is beautiful, totally timeless, and exactly what I was looking for. (You can see it in this quick video.)

Read on for more pics and let me know if you have specific questions on pricing - I don't think I photographed anything over $60, with most sweaters around $25 and most jeans around $20. The bags were $25-$30 on average and the booties were the most expensive items, genuine leather for many of these and priced at $60.
