Every season I like to make a wishlist of what’s missing in my wardrobe so I can shop with certain items in mind. There are some things I don’t mind splurging on — a cashmere sweater or skinny jeans, for instance — because I know I’ll get so much wear out of them. I made a list of ten fall staples and then found at least five options for each one so that there’s something for every reader’s budget. That’s right — more than 50 finds to help you start your fall shopping in style. I know I’ll be referring back to this myself as I stock up for the new season!
