Fall is a time for new beginnings. As the lazy days of summer fade away, leaves change color, and the whirlwind of the holidays approaches, the time to revamp your routine can feel pressing. But unlike the January push to commit to a fitness plan or get organized, this time of transition is more of an excuse to indulge in some retail therapy and self-care.
With endless combinations of boots, cozy sweaters, and layers, fashion’s most exciting time of the year can finally begin. As you swap your summer clothes out and slowly introduce leather and jackets back into the rotation, ’tis the season to renew your wardrobe staples by mixing in some fresh, on-trend pieces. You can even add a few more basics into your closet.
Even just a few new pieces can step up your fashion game. And if you’ve got curves, we’ve got you covered all season.
So, how should you flatter your figure? We did some major digging and uncovered 25 ways to incorporate a few of the most popular trends into your wardrobe. They’ll complement your body perfectly.
Plus, nothing feels better than debuting a new outfit and all your friends asking, “Where did you get those boots?”

Whether you’ve been hunting for a wrap dress or something celeb-inspired, there’s a fall wardrobe staple here for you.
Leopard Print
This print has long dominated the fashion jungle, in addition to other animal prints, like zebra stripes and snakeskin. While seeing spots and stripes is typically a jarring sign, we’re loving this current obsession and accepting leopard as a wardrobe need.
You know who also loves this look? The legendary Serena Williams:

Flocked Midi Dress
This Tommy Hilfiger frock is the best dress to help you transition into fall. The midi-length makes it the perfect piece to bounce from work to dinner. And once it gets a bit colder, the dress will definitely pop under a warm coat or with a pair of black boots and tights.
To make things even better, it runs from size 2-18, which we love.
Since leopard is literally everywhere, we’ve added three more pieces for you to check out, below.
