Obvi, back-to-school means you’re gonna stock up on new jeans, sweet sweaters and cute shoes. But lotsa times it’s those kinda funky should-I-or-shouldn’t-I pieces that become absolutely beloved. Here are five of our fave pieces to funk up your fall wardrobe.
A lace shirt might not work for school, but it’s soo weekend-worthy. Layer it over another tank and tuck it into a voluminous mini or sport it with skinny jeans. So fun.

Skinny cargo pants are way cool, and a sweet spin on the military trend. They look buttoned up with a blazer and heels or low-key with a faded tee and flats.

We heart studs, but these screws are a diff take on the tough-girl trend. Love them best with flirty florals or retro skirts and cropped cardis. Tiny enough to work with everything you own, though.

Somewhere between sandal season and boot weather, we find ourselves needing comfy flats for everyday. Ballerinas are still cute, but we’re digging steely oxfords for the moment.
