1. Work out, go out, keep your cool

Look for athleisure and performance wear that dries quickly, wicks away moisture and keeps odor at bay. Extra credit for pieces with built-in SPF. Swap your old basketball shorts for sweatshorts. You’ll be calling all the shots.

2. Go for a bold bottom

Sure, blue denim is a fail-safe fall staple, but if you’re ready to change it up, try pants in a colorful hue. Just be sure to keep your other items on the neutral side.You want to stand out from the crowd–in a good way.

3. Look smart with a blazer  

Your best investment this fall is the ever-versatile blazer. Dress it down with a basic knit and dark-wash denim. Jazz it up with a fun print and crisp pant.

4. Give your old kicks the boot

Invest in well-made boots; cheap ones don’t hold up as well. That way, rain or shine (or snow), you’ll be ready for whatever nature throws your way.

5. Go with a boot in a versatile color

Stick with neutrals, such as beige, brown, even black. And remember, dress pants call for dress boots; for more relaxed looks, you can get away with casual Chukkas or Chelsea boots.
