This option on Amazon has a longer silhouette that falls to the knee. I love the A-line design that flares out at the bottom, giving it a flowy and elegant look. One customer called the skirt “very soft and comfortable,” adding that it’s “perfect for fall.”

Turtlenecks are a staple of Rachel Green’s style, and Aniston herself wears them during the colder seasons. A cropped turtleneck sweater like this one on Amazon is ideal for wearing with pants or high-waisted skirts. The oversized silhouette and sleeves remind me of a more comfortable version of a tracksuit. A thick turtleneck will cover your neck, which is ideal for low autumn temperatures. It’s also on sale thanks to a coupon code.
