If you’re anything like me, fall fashion is about adding cozy layers and sticking with soft, coastal tones. But finding fall pieces that fit my classic coastal style without feeling too trendy or overly seasonal can feel a little challenging at times. That’s why I pulled together these two collages: The Coastal Style Fall Sweater Edit and The Coastal Style Fall Cardigan Edit.
Both are filled with pieces that work well for transitional weather, with relaxed silhouettes, soft fabrics, and colors that blend into a coastal wardrobe. Ivory, sand, oat, soft blue, classic navy, and warm browns all pull colors from the beach and ocean. These are not the dark colors or bold prints you’ll see everywhere else. They’re mostly lightweight, easy to layer, and designed to pair with denim, coastal basics, or even over a casual dress.
These are the sweaters and cardigans I’d actually wear at a beach house on a crisp fall day or while walking around a coastal town with a coffee in hand when the air starts to turn. They’re comfortable, unfussy, and still polished enough to wear out to brunch or to dinner.
From sandy knits to soft blues, these pieces carry coastal style into the cooler months.
The Coastal Style Fall Sweater Edit
This roundup includes cozy knits and lightweight sweaters in coastal blues and neutral tones that give you warmth on the days you need it. I looked for sweaters that feel laid-back but still put-together, that you can throw on with jeans, throw over your shoulders, or layer over a tank. All of them feel right at home in a modern coastal closet. These are the kinds of sweaters that transition well from September to early winter, and are also wardrobe staples in warmer coastal climates where fall and winter don’t hit quite as hard.

The Coastal Style Fall Cardigan Edit
Cardigans are a staple in my fall wardrobe because they’re so versatile. For fall, lighter options for layering over tees and tanks are key, when mornings and evenings are cooler and sunny days can still be warm. They’re all in that same soft, coastal color palette that works with just about anything. I love wearing cardigans with jeans, relaxed pants, or even over a flowy dress to carry my coastal vibe into cooler weather.

Just because the weather is changing doesn’t mean you have to give up your coastal style. These sweaters and cardigans are perfect for embracing fall while keeping your wardrobe light, textured, and relaxed. Some of these pieces can even work year-round, especially on cooler summer nights along the New England coast, where the temperatures often stay mild at night.
