Fall in West Texas is its own season. Mornings can start in the 40s, afternoons climb back into the 80s, and the wind always has an opinion. That means the best fall outfits in Midland are all about smart layers, breathable fabrics and pieces that work from the school drop-off to Friday night football.
We pulled together seven fall outfits from what's in the store right now. Every piece is in stock, so you can shop the full look online or come try it on at The Pointe Boutique.
Three Rules for Dressing for Fall in West Texas
Layer light. Start with a tank or short sleeve top and add a cardigan, vest or jacket you can take off by lunch. Choose fall colors over heavy fabrics: rust, olive, burgundy, mocha and plaid feel like fall even in a lightweight top. And don't forget the denim. A great pair of jeans carries you through every fall weekend, from the pumpkin patch to the tailgate.
1. Sunday Church
A soft plaid blouse with a feminine bow, polished wide-leg trousers and a pair of stone earrings. Comfortable, put together and easy to wear all morning.
2. Cool Morning, Warm Afternoon
The classic West Texas fall day. Wear the cardigan over a simple tank in the morning, then tie it around your shoulders when the afternoon heats up.
3. Friday Night Football
Cozy enough for the stands, cute enough for the photos. A sweater with a built-in leopard scarf, sleek coated jeans and a hands-free bag so you can cheer.
Kate Sweater w/Leopard Scarf Top
