Your Guide to the Best Fall and Winter Wardrobe Essentials 2025 | Dublin, Powell, Northwest Columbus, Ohio

There’s something special about this time of year — the air gets crisp, coffee tastes better, and your favorite layers finally make their return. 🍂

Fall to winter is all about easy styling — pieces that keep you warm, cozy, and confidently put together without trying too hard. This season’s trends? They’re equal parts timeless and on-trend, giving you that perfect mix of comfort and sophistication.

At Salt & Lavender Clothing, we’re here to help you style with ease— with looks that transition seamlessly from errands to evenings out (and everything in between).

Fall to winter is our time to shine — cozy layers, elevated neutrals, and just the right amount of statement. This year’s trends? Think timeless comfort meets bold textures and a little bit of edge.


Wide-Leg & Straight-Leg Denim: The Ultimate 2025 Staple

Wide-leg denim and straight-leg jeans are officially the stars of the season. These fits are easy, flattering, and give every outfit that effortless “I just threw this on and still look amazing”. Opt for:

Dark indigo for a timeless, semi-dressed-up look

Faded light wash for casual weekends

Chocolate brown or black denim for elevated everyday style

💡 Styling tip: Pair your wide-leg jeans with a more fitted top to create balance. If you’re wearing cropped denim, choose a shoe that’s not too clunky — like a low-profile sneaker, a bootie with a small heel, or a simple sandal for warmer temps.

Faux Suede: Soft, Luxe & Effortless

There’s just something about faux suede — the texture, the warmth, the instant polish. It’s the “looks expensive, feels like a hug” fabric of the season.

From blazers to skirts, we can't get enough of soft suede as we transition from fall to winter.

All the browns are in this season, but for a suede jacket, look for camel or cognac tones that stay in style year after year.

💡 Style it with: a solid-color top like black or white, straight-leg jeans, and gold jewelry for a relaxed yet elevated look.

Animal Prints: Leopard Is the New Neutral

If there’s one print that always comes back around, it’s leopard. This season, animal prints are the easiest way to add personality and texture to your wardrobe.

Start small with a leopard top under a neutral cardigan — or go bold with a statement cardigan or printed denim. These prints add just the right amount of fun and edge while incorporating timeless basics.

💡 Style it with: Our leopard print cardi pairs beautifully with almost any denim wash — light, medium, or dark. Add simple gold jewelry, and you’ve got an effortlessly polished fall-to-winter look.

Faux Fur: Your Statement Layer of the Season

When the temps drop, faux fur becomes your statement piece for seasonal events and holiday festivities. Whether it’s a vest, a coat with a plush collar, or just a touch of trim, this trend adds both texture and warmth.

Choose neutrals like ivory, tan, or gray for timeless appeal.

💡 Style it with: a simple long-sleeve top and wide-leg denim for cozy glam that feels effortless. It also looks stunning paired with satin skirts for a holiday look!
