Riding Boots and Houndstooth: Classic Fall Style That Comes Back Around
Some years, riding boots get called a trend. I’ve always thought of them as a classic—and every fall, I’m reminded why.
There’s something about a tall riding boot that makes an outfit feel instantly pulled together. I love the equestrian mood: polished, practical and a little bit Ralph Lauren for fall. The boots may have a moment in the trend cycle, but to me they’re a wardrobe classic you can return to year after year.
Pair them with a skirt or dress for that unmistakable heritage feel, or keep things relaxed with your favourite everyday pieces. The appeal is in how easily they bring a sense of intention to an outfit.
A little fall styling inspiration
A houndstooth blazer you can keep for years
Houndstooth has that same enduring quality. A blazer in this pattern can live in your wardrobe for years, especially when you choose a shape you love and take good care of it. It feels classic without being plain, and adds texture and interest to simple fall layers.
A note on this blazer: The fibre-content tag has been cut out, so I can’t confirm what it’s made from. It may be wool, but without the label I don’t want to make a claim either way. When shopping pre-loved, it’s always better to share what we know—and be clear about what we can’t verify.
Three ways to wear one blazer
One of my favourite things about a blazer is how much its feel can change with a small styling choice. Wear it open for an easy layer, button it for a sharper silhouette, or add a belt to define the waist and create a more styled look. That versatility makes a blazer useful across different outfits and occasions.
Together, riding boots and a houndstooth blazer make an easy starting point for fall inspiration: classic shapes, thoughtful details and pieces you can keep in circulation for a long time. Trends will come and go, but personal style is built by finding the things you love and wearing them your way.
