Pumpkin everything, sweaters, boots/booties and the cooler weather all make me so happy. I also love that fall is about the wardrobe basics. Don’t get me wrong, I am all about (some) trends. I LOVE adding new trendy pieces to my wardrobe, but the most exciting thing for me recently was when I was pulling my fall clothes from the off rack and realized that most of my clothes from previous years still look current. Being a fashion blogger, I feel obligated to keep up with the latest styles, and the fact my fall clothes weren’t out of date was a pleasant surprise.

One piece that I think every fall wardrobe needs is a utility vest. I’m not usually drawn to army green, but I just love a utility vest. Back in the spring, I wrote about it being a wardrobe essential here, but it is also a fall staple too. One of my favorite ways to style a utility vest for fall is wearing a striped shift dress and riding boots. It is the perfect casual fall look! The vest runs big; I recommend sizing down. I found this dress for only $13. It runs small, so I recommend sizing up.

      Thank you so much! Oh yes absolutely. A utility vest can be worn with jeans, skirts or dresses. I am sure I’ll share another post later in fall with it restyled.

    I love everything about this outfit! I saw a utility vest at Marshal’s last year and I regret not buying it. I have a dress that is kind of similar to this, but white and gray stripes, so I will have to keep my eye out for a good vest!

    Vests don’t make sense in my climate, but I agree with you about the utility vest being a fall essential! I just bought a utility jacket from old navy and I’m in love.

      It takes a while for us to be able to wear vest, since it’s so hot. When it finally cools down vests are my go to. Ahh I bet it’s so cute.

    Hi Courtney you have taken the utility vest and made it look fabulous with the striped dress which I love on you! The riding boots and purse style it up too. Have a beautiful day, Hugs, Terri xo.
