When the air turns crisp and the mornings bring a little chill, it’s the perfect time to switch things up in your wardrobe. Living in Delhi, fall feels special.. there’s an excitement in the city as we prepare for festivals, weddings, and cozy winter evenings. Let’s embrace the season together!
Layered Outfits for Delhi’s Mood Swings
Fall in Delhi often starts chilly but warms up as the day progresses. The secret? Layering! I swear by pairing lightweight turtlenecks with sleeveless dresses, adding a chunky cardigan for those cooler evenings. Bonus tip: Play with textures like wool and cotton for a dynamic yet breathable look.
Boots, Bags, and Beyond
No fall wardrobe is complete without standout accessories. This year, I’m adding a classic patent leather clutch from Clutch Bags New York to my collection. It’s the most classic bag you can get.. timeless, elegant, and incredibly versatile.
This clutch bag will be part of your wardrobe forever. Wear it to weddings, dinners, drinks, events, or even business meetings paired with a brief bag.
Here’s why this classic patent leather clutch is a must-have:
Black patent leather
Black interior lining
7” x 12” x .5”
Tuck-away wristlet handle
Interior card pocket
Made in New York City
It’s the forever bag that seamlessly transition, adding just the right amount of sophistication to any outfit.
Festive Ready Looks
With Diwali just behind us and weddings in full swing, fall is all about balancing tradition with modern trends. Think velvet lehengas paired with cape jackets, or Indo-western silhouettes.
My go-to look this year? A statement jacket over a plain sari..it’s simple, elegant, and perfect for the weather. Pair it with the patent leather clutch for a touch of elegance.
Colors and Prints
Fall might mean muted tones elsewhere, but in Delhi, I mix deep shades like burgundy and olive green with vibrant Indian prints. Block print scarves or phulkari dupattas can transform even the simplest outfit into a head-turner.
A Hint of Warmth for Your Skin
Don’t forget your skincare! The dry weather can take a toll, so I stick to hydrating serums and moisturizers. A lightweight sunscreen is a must too, as Delhi’s fall sun can be surprisingly harsh.
Cafe-Hopping in Cozy Knits
What’s better than sipping hot chocolate in a snug cafe? Pairing it with an oversized sweater, of course!
Whether I’m visiting my favorite haunts in Khan Market or exploring new ones in Champa Gali, fall fashion and a good cup of coffee go hand-in-hand.
My Fall Favorites Checklist
A trench coat for sudden evening chills.
Chunky scarves that double as stoles.
A leather tote - a fall essential for carrying everything from makeup to novels.
Gold-tone jewelry to add a festive sparkle.
Ankle-length boots - because they’re versatile and timeless.
A classic patent leather clutch - the perfect blend of style and practicality.
Delhi’s fall is more than just a season; it’s an experience. It’s about transitioning into comfort while keeping a touch of glamour intact.
