Just like Walmart and Kmart, department store Sears isn’t exactly the place you think of when it comes to fashion, but this week I decided to challenge myself and peruse their site in search of some stylish finds.
The result? 12 cute, fall-appropriate pieces, which you can check out below.
And while it’s no secret that Sears, like many brick-and-mortar retailers, has been struggling, the good news (for consumers) is that the entire store is currently on sale. So get to shopping!
1. Embroidered Jean Jacket
A trend-conscious version of a classic wardrobe staple. Pairing your jean jacket with a dress and booties is always a safe bet, but if you’re feeling daring, rock a chic double denim look.
2. Riding Boots
We love the crisscross detailing on these otherwise traditional faux leather riding boots. Style them with skinny jeans as well as our #10 pick for a cute yet casual fall getup.
3. Corduroy Skirt
IMO, corduroy is way too underrated. We say embrace its cool texture with this button-front mini. Not sure how to wear? Peep these outfit ideas.
4. Owl Scarf
Speaking of outfit ideas, this owl-dorable infinity scarf (that costs $1.49 — not a typo!) would look fab with that #3 skirt. Just grab a cream-colored sweater, a peacoat, plus your fave boots. Autumn perfection!
5. Faux Leather Jacket
If you don’t already own a moto jacket, you need to snag one … ASAP. It adds an effortlessly cool feel to pretty much every look. This one comes in a fashion-forward shade of oxblood that’s sure to get noticed. Plus, it’s on sale for just $10!
6. Pom Pom Knit Hat
Definitely an essential if you experience harsh winters. We picked this two-toned knit hat because it can be paired with SO many different colors—from jewel tones and brights to pastels and neutrals. You get a ton of bang for your buck with this one.
7. Navy Blue Mules
This season’s “it” shoe at a wallet-friendly price. The luxe velvet look and rich navy hue up the trendiness of these slip-ons.
8. Bell-Sleeve Blouse
How gorgeous is this lacy, bell-sleeve blouse?! This romantic piece was styled down here, but we suggest dressing it to the nines with a full skirt and pumps. Don’t forget to grab a demure clutch, too!
9. Bucket Bag
Because you can never have too many handbags. This distressed faux leather carryall has a worn-in, vintage vibe that makes it a perfect pairing with casual on-campus looks.
10. Wildcats Sweater
What team?! An ode to one of the all-time greatest DCOMs, this low-key sweater helps you seamlessly mix fashion with fandom.
11. Lace Pencil Skirt
This lace pencil skirt was pretty much made to rock at a job or internship. But if you’re looking to switch things up, pair with the #5 jacket for a tone-on-tone ensemble that’s the ideal blend of edgy and girly.
12. Plum Velvet Dress
With the holidays fast-approaching, we had to include a dress that rises to the occasion. This sleek velvet number is sure to be in rotation from Thanksgiving right through New Year’s Eve.
