It's the season to swap out those shorts and tank tops for something a little cozier. And with a little planning, you can stay stylish and comfortable while transitioning from summer to fall in Newark.

Layering is Your Best Friend

You can never go wrong with a light jacket or a cardigan over a t-shirt or long-sleeve top. This perfect way to handle the temperature swings is ideal for adding warmth that you can easily take off. 

Embrace Autumnal Fabrics and Colors

As the leaves start to change, so should your color palette and fabrics. So this is the time to bring in richer tones like maroon, emerald green, and sapphire blue, and trade in your light summer fabrics for denim, corduroy, wool, and flannel. This way you can keep warm while adding a cozy, autumnal feel to your outfits.

Don't Forget Footwear

There’s no taking the fact away that fall is the perfect season for boots, and Newark is a great place to show them off. Whether you’re walking around a park or exploring a new neighborhood, ankle boots and combat boots offer versatility and can be paired with everything from jeans to dresses. Then, again, a clean pair of classic sneakers is always a good option for a casual day, while a comfortable pair of loafers delivers a more polished look.

A Few Key Pieces for Your Newark Fall Wardrobe

• A denim or leather jacket lets you stay perfect for almost any occasion.
• A cozy cardigan adds warmth indoors or out.
• Dark-wash jeans deliver a staple that can be dressed up or down.
• A patterned scarf is a great accessory to add a pop of color or texture to a simple outfit.

By focusing on these tips, you'll not only be ready for Newark's dynamic weather but also look effortlessly chic as you explore the city's parks, cafes, and markets this fall. And as you go shopping, don’t forget to order your delicious Nigerian dish from Ounje Alabeke.
