As the air becomes crisp and the turning leaves begin to fall from the trees, we start reaching for cool-weather style staples. While chunky knits, cozy scarves and luxurious layers are the standard items appearing in a traditional autumn/winter wardrobe, each year invites exciting seasonal trends for a style refresh. This season's trend market is making way for interesting wins and fails and I've sifted through the lot for some stellar options that are sure to stick around. Whether the trend calls for revitalized classics or a contemporary take on traditional materials, I've rounded up the top 3 cozy fall trends to shop now. 

SHEARLING ACCESSORIES
A beautiful fabric signature to the cold seasons, this cushy material is reimagined in accessories this autumn. Summer accessories like tote bags and easy slip-on sandals are dressed for fall in this luxe material. Additionally, footwear styles once seen as fads are made new again with shearling accents and unexpected tones. Offering a textured detail to layered looks, shearling accessories are a fitting trend which add cozy elements without the bulk. 

SWEATER DRESSES 
A style which is no stranger to an autumn/winter style lineup, sweater dresses are getting quite an upgrade this season. Now presented in luxe fabrics and tailored slim-fitting silhouettes, sweater dresses are no longer a fast-fashion casualty. Luxurious improvements to this comfortable, warm staple create elevated designs deserving of the spotlight. 

As we welcome the chillier half of the year, our wardrobes also shift to seasonally appropriate garments, accessories and footwear. With a closet filled with sartorial seasonal classics, no autumn/winter wardrobe is complete without a pair of boots. Whether they're tall and snug or of a fancier variety, boots are sometimes a tricky item to get right. Luckily, Sarah Flint has taken the guess work out of boot shopping and has created a range of perfectly designed options that cater to an array of needs. From heeled dressy styles to coveted knee-high models, I've compiled the ultimate guide to Sarah Flint's boot offerings to get you sorted for the cold months ahead. Kick up your heels and grab a hot beverage -- read on for the must-have boots you'll want to year all autumn long. 

TALL BOOTS

1, Alexandra 50 // Knee-high Heeled Boots -- Black/Navy
Ultra-chic, leg-hugging knee-high boots aren't always the easiest of styles to find. While many complain about incorrect fits, shapes and fabrications, the Alexandra Boot is the perfect remedy to this particular boot woe. Constructed in Italian stretch suede, this luxurious boot beautifully contours to the leg, providing the perfect slim fit. Additionally, it is designed with a hidden zipper for easy wear and features Flint's signature light-weight tortoise block heel. A beautiful addition to not only wear throughout the season ahead but for many years to come. 

2. Perfect Stretch Boot 30 // Knee-High Pull on Boot -- Black/Taupe
For a no-fuss easy solution which pairs beautifully with pants or a dress, the Perfect Stretch Boot offers an elegant touch to a wealth of ensembles. Expertly constructed in water-resistant high-quality suede and a lug-style outersole, this stylish pull-on  boot option is a wonderful shoe to sport in fall's unpredictable weather. Best of all, this chic style offers a timeless shape while thoughtful details like 6mm of extra padding and anatomical arch support maximize on comfort. 

BOOTIES

3. Perfect Zip Bootie 30 | 70 -- Espresso Crosta/Black Calf 
Offered in two heel heights, this versatile bootie option provides supportive elevation for extended wear. Unlike similar styles currently on the market, Flint's upgraded design is crafted with a busy woman in mind. A generously sized toe box allows for a comfortable fit while a padded insole with her unique arch support lends to pleasant, relaxed wear. While the fit alone makes these a shoe wardrobe must-have, luxurious details like the gold galvanized double zipper detailing and high-quality materials create an elegant lasting wear with minimal damage. 

4. Perfect Dress Bootie 60 | 90 -- Black Suede/Taupe
Perhaps my favorite bootie from Flint's versatile boot range, the Perfect Dress Bootie is an ideal shoe to sport at more formal fetes. In true Sarah Flint fashion, this beautifully made option presents a sleek fit with darling feminine details like a scalloped trim and French binding. Offered in two heel heights for a wider preference, the Dress Bootie elegantly provides height with respects to comfort through Flint's comfort hallmarks and pitch support by a hidden platform. A wonderful and wise option to consider before holiday season is in full swing. 

5.Ellie x Gravati // Chelsea Style Bootie -- Chestnut Vachetta/Black Vachetta/Camel Crosta
A tasteful option designed after Flint's first employee Ellie, this chic Chelsea-style bootie is a perfect model for a city-chic gal. An easy slip on bootie, this carefully designed shoe features refined elements like slim diagonal elastic paneling and artful stitching which not only highlight the expert craftsmanship but lends to the overall comfort and fit of the shoe. This year-round style beautifully wears in an array of weather conditions and is designed for lasting wear without the bulk and weight of traditional styles.
