Wild Fable Elsa Mary Jane Ballet Flats with Memory Foam Insole
Mary Jane flats were everywhere this summer, and it’s a trend Garcia is bringing into fall with ease. She loves that these are comfortable, polished and practical, while still meeting the style moment. According to her, they can be paired with jeans, maxi skirts and slacks, and there are so many styles to choose from: mesh, embellished , classic black, or a pop of red.
A New Day High-Rise Pleat Front Straight Trousers
The next trend Garcia’s loving is burgundy — it’s everywhere! And lucky us, because the warm tone looks gorgeous on everyone. Garcia’s into a full monochromatic burgundy look (which you can score for under $40!), but the nice thing about color trends is that you can embrace them as much or as little as you want, so you can also opt for just a touch with a burgundy accessory.
A New Day Short Sleeve T-Shirt
Having a few solid basics in your closet will make getting dressed so much simpler, especially when a seasonal transition is involved. Not only does this one have a classic shape, but it’s available in a variety of colors, allowing you to commit to a full burgundy look if you want or to pair with denim, work trousers or even a skirt.
Naturium Phyto Glow Lip Balm
It’s no secret that lip balms, glosses and oils have been having a moment all year — and for Garcia, the trend isn’t coming to a halt any time soon. Naturium’s Phyto Glow Balm comes in six shades (including clear) and boasts hero ingredients like shea butter, cupuaçu butter and plant squalane, making it extra moisturizing. For fall, we’re loving Latte and Mocha, which give a hint of warm, buildable color.
Future Collective Long Sleeve Collared Western Denim Button-Down Shirt

Garcia is loving the Canadian tuxedo this fall and who can blame her? Sometimes the best way to wear denim is to commit to it head to toe, especially with Western-inspired styles trending. This button down is made from cotton, so it feels luxe while remaining affordable. And if you’re not ready to go for full denim on denim, try layering it over your favorite T-shirt and pairing it with black jeans or slacks. It will add a casual, cool vibe to any look.
Wild Fable Long Sleeve Oversized Denim Western Shirt
Made from 100% cotton, not only is this denim shirt on-trend, but it’s durable and high-quality.
A New Day Burgundy Faux Croc Trench Coat
Editor’s note: This pick is sold out in some sizes. We found a similar item you might like below.
The first trend on Garcia’s mind? Trench coats. This croc option by A New Day gives the timeless style a fresh twist, while hitting the burgundy trend at the same time. It’s sure to dress up even the simplest of outfits (think: jeans and a plain white tee) but you can wear it for formal occasions, too.
A New Day Double Breasted Blazer
From the office to weekend errands, you can’t go wrong with an oversized blazer. Also burgundy, pair this one with a blouse, plain T-shirt or even layer it over a light sweater. Better yet, you can wear it all year-round.
A New Day Black Faux Leather Trench Coat
According to Garcia, a black leather trench will instantly elevate your entire vibe. And priced at just $50, this faux leather option is a steal! Right now, sport it with jeans and sneakers. Then when the holidays hit, you can layer it over all of your party dresses.
Universal Thread Denim Trench Coat
While trucker jackets and cropped bombers tend to be more popular denim styles, Garcia’s into this blue denim trench for fall. It’s perfect for layering over sweaters, trousers and jeans, yet it will also pair well over more comfortable leggings and sneaker combos.
A New Day Classic Trench Coat
Trends come and go, but the classic beige trench coat is always in. Garcia loves that you can throw it on over virtually any look and it will always add a sleek, put-together touch. This one is totally timeless and less than $50.
Land’s End Recover High Rise Barrel Leg Ankle Jeans
Since denim never goes out of style, its an investment you won’t regret, according to Garcia. Right now, she’s loving the popular barrel leg style, as it can be dressed up or down and looks great on a wide variety of body types. Wear these casually with sneakers, or pair them with heels, flats or loafers for a more sophisticated appeal.
