Okay, y’all! We are officially experiencing full blown Fall in my neck of the woods. The rain has stopped, the sun is out, and there’s a nice bite in the air. It’s glorious.
In honor of this much anticipated season, I wanted to hunt down some great deals that were perfectly made for Fall. I wanted to find items that wouldn’t break the bank, but would have you feeling FALL READY! I did a Summer Finds for Under $25 post that was super popular, but I raised the limit to $40 for today’s Fall finds. And man, did I find some great things!
In addition to finding some new items to share with you today, I also wanted to highlight some of my tried and true favorites that are $40 and under. Some of the items are ones that I cannot live without, and I know you will love them too.
First, I’m just going to list the items, and then after the collage I’ll share my thoughts! Really quickly, before we get to the $40 and under finds, I had a couple that just missed the cut off. Like this plush and cuddly soft hoodie (love the blush and the red!) and this cowl neck sweater poncho (I just ordered it in the cream, but it also comes in black and grey). Since they both just went 40% OFF, they are totally affordable!
And OH EM GEE. This boyfriend color block cardi is just under $50, but it reminds me of the much more expensive Madewell one that sold out in a hot second.
OKAY! Time for FAB FALL FINDS UNDER $40!
puffer vest / peplum top / long fleece cardigan / lip gloss / nail polish / lipstick
olive green leather earrings / bracelet set / Sims Stone necklace / gold circle pendant / bar and circle earrings
scarf / cozy throw / pillow
PUFFER VEST – This puffer vest comes in 8 total colors, and the standing collar is DARLING! I love layering in the fall, and this is an awesome layering piece. And get this. It’s ON SALE for ONLY $25, and the reviews are excellent.
PEPLUM TOP – Last year I bought this tee in 3 colors, and it’s back this year and NOW ON SALE for UNDER $20! Some colors are gone, but there are some new colors too. Click HERE to see the top on me in white, the black and white stripe, and the wine color. It’s great on it’s own and for layering as well.
LONG FLEECE CARDIGAN – Layer on this soft and cozy cardigan for both style and warmth!
LIP GLOSS – Naked Plum is my GO TO Fall shade. And the gloss went 20% OFF this morning!
NAIL POLISH – Bogota blackberry is a really pretty deep wine/ plum color. I’ve been wearing it a lot lately and fielding lots of “What’s your nail color?” questions.
LIPSTICK – I switch up my glosses all the time, but you will ALWAYS find me wearing “fashion icon”. It’s the perfect shade for me all year long. (FYI: the color of the lipstick that you will see online makes it appear MUCH DARKER than it actually is.) Click HERE to see the picture that had everybody asking me about my lip color. It’s the first picture in the post. I know I was wearing “fashion icon”, and I’m pretty sure I was wearing my Naked Plum gloss.
OLIVE GREEN LEATHER EARRINGS – These earrings are leather and incredibly light weight. If you can’t wear heavy earrings, you simply have to check this retailer out. These teardrop earrings come in 3 sizes, and I prefer the mediums. Click HERE to shop sooooo many different sizes, shapes, colors, and textures of the famous Nickel and Suede leather earrings.
BRACELET SET – I love a bracelet stack. These neutral metal and agate beads will go with virtually everything in your closet.
SIMS STONE NECKLACE – I mean, this necklace is named after me…so I obviously love it. Click HERE to see the necklace on me. It’s only the black that’s included in this deal (use the code STONESTEAL to make it ONLY $20), but the post will give you an idea of how to style the necklace.
GOLD CIRCLE PENDANT – Do you need a clean and simple necklace to go with lots of different outfits? Look no further. It comes in silver too. (For a dainty necklace that is just $12, click HERE. I got it last year and still love it.)
BAR AND CIRCLE EARRINGS – These earrings are perfectly understated and totally pretty. I love the blingy bar against the sleek gold hoop, and I know I’ll be reaching for them constantly.
MULTI COLOR GRID SCARF – This scarf has a great neutral background with multi color threads running through it. It will look great with both denim and military jackets! You can actually find tons of awesome scarves $25 and under HERE. I love this black and white plaid scarf for under $20. And look! A version of our favorite fringe infinity scarf is back! And you can click HERE to see me in a leopard scarf that’s only $18.
COZY THROW – This was perhaps my favorite purchase of the entire Anniversary Sale. And even at full price, it is WELL WORTH IT. This cozy throw is fought over at my house, even though I have several throws in a basket within everybody’s reach. This one is somehow softer and cozier than the others. It’s also cuter. I love the big fringe on the end, and it’s awesome that it comes in 26 colors. TWENTY SIX COLORS and has near perfect reviews! You need at least 2 for yourself, and also consider them for gifts! Grandmas, hubbies, sisters, besties, college kids, little ones….EVERYBODY LOVES AND NEEDS THIS BLANKET. Click HERE To see a picture of Carter all cozied up in the blanket and to see what it looks like thrown over the couch. The color I have is called “pink brick”…but I would definitely consider it more of a rusty salmon color than a true pink.
PILLOW – This large 24×24 pillow screams Fall! The colors (rust, mustard, olives, and grey/browns) are absolutely gorgeous! And it’s a feather insert. I love a good pillow, and the insert MUST be feathers!
GREY JEANS – The Articles of Society Carly jeans are some of my favorite jeans of all times, so I love that they came out in this grey color. And I’m THRILLED that they are ON SALE for ONLY $36.97! For those of you that already have and love the regular denim Carly jeans, these are going to be a no brainer. If you’re not sure how to style grey jeans, click HERE to see a picture of me with grey jeans and a blush sweater. Grey jeans also look great with white, black, cream, plum, green, etc. And the list goes on!
I have a handful of other items that didn’t make the collage, but that are still FAB FALL FINDS UNDER $40! My favorite Madewell v neck tee is a closet staple for me, and the black one is now ONLY $11.70! And these gorgeous J Crew pave hoops are now under $40 since they went on sale. I love both the rainbow and the crystal. These Kate Spade brass and oval studs are classic. All other colors are pretty much sold out, but the Gibson cozy convertible neck tunic is now under $40! And the MUST HAVE TUNIC, usually over $40, is now only $27.90! I have collected 4 colors over the years.
Oh, and a total oversight on my part, my double breasted pea coat for $37.90 should have definitely been included on the collage! Click HERE to see me in it, and remember to size up (I’m wearing a large).
That’s it for today! Short, Sweet, and Inexpensive. I hope you found some treasures for yourself!

That cozy throw-well, I have three in my living room because they’re THAT good!
JK says
Love these finds!!! Quick question – when will the Holt necklaces be shipped?
Sheaffer says
Hi, there! Some people have already received theirs, but others are experiencing later ship times. I spoke to Amy at Accessory Concierge yesterday, and it has to do with the flooding that so many areas have been dealing with. I’m hoping soon. The necklaces are gorgeous and will 100% be worth the wait. Thank you so much for buying one and supporting Holt! xoxo
Jamie says
I purchased the cozy throw you recommended during the Nordstrom sale for my son to take to college. My four sons poke fun at me nonstop saying I own more throws and pillows than any one person should have. Well, guess what is on the top of Christmas lists for 3 teenage boys… cozy throw blankets. Ever since we dropped my oldest off at college my other boys can’t stop talking about the throw blanket. I love that I am rubbing off on them… one throw blanket and pillow at a time.
Sheaffer says
YES, Jamie! I love this! Carter’s absolutely favorite thing is “being cozy”, and I’d like to take credit for that. Good job, mama! 🙂 xoxo
Stacey says
I ordered a couple of the stone necklaces for Christmas gifts and was able to use the discount code on the turquoise too! Thank you!
Amanda says
Just ordered 2 of the stone necklaces for teacher Christmas gifts! Thanks for the code!
Sheaffer says
They are perfect for teacher gifts! They’ll love them, Amanda! xoxo
Gail Wilson says
I got my ‘Holt’ pendant last week and am wearing it to work today. It is so pretty and versatile – and a reminder to think and hope for that sweet little boy. Sending happy thoughts his way!
Sheaffer says
I’m so glad you love it, Gail! It really is gorgeous and will go with so much. xoxo, Sheaffer
Michael says
Gorgeous picks! I love the pea coat. I need a new coat for post denim, but pre-parka! Question, what app/site did you use to make the collage??
Sheaffer says
The pea coat is awesome! I have a friend that does collages for me sometimes, and she did this one. I’m not sure what program she uses. So sorry! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Shay Shull says
Um, I love every single one of these finds! How do I not own that polish?!
Narci says
That lip gloss looks so pretty! I love this list!
