These Are the Fall-Ready Ensembles to Add to Your Transitional Wardrobe

If there was one piece of clothing that I overcompensated on last fall, it was pants. So this season, I decided to give myself a "pants ban," opting to focus on knitwear and accessories instead. I'm a firm believer that these are the items that can make or break a fall outfit, so I want to invest in expensive-looking pieces that I'll be able to wear for many years. For this reason alone, I made my way over to QVC. The retailer has really surprised me with an array of fall finds, especially in the site's pre-owned section. (I'm still salty about missing out on an original '90s Dior saddle bag.) The site's carefully curated knitwear basics are the front-runners in my cart, making the hard task of refreshing my seasonal closet that much easier. Keep scrolling to take a look at the pieces that I'm taking to checkout.

Dress this turtleneck sweater up with some tailored pants or down with jeans.

The most elegant find in a fall colorway.

When I say I'm looking for more streamlined shoes, this is what I mean.

I am a firm believer that Uggs are the unofficial shoe of cold weather. So adding these classic slippers to the mix is a must.

Toss this knit on with anything, and you have the most sophisticated fall outfit.

I bought this blazer in a size up for the perfect slouchy silhouette.

Once I saw this suede bomber jacket, I knew I had to have it.

It's giving work-from-home vibes, and I'm very much here for it.

The best time to get my hands on winter's most used accessory.

I'm giving my baseball caps a much needed rest in lieu of this recycled cable-knit beanie.

A mid-length buttoned cardigan is my favorite child among this edit.

The perfect boot to wear with skirts, jeans, or trousers this season.
