Fall Winery Outfits

On a recent trip to Napa for a few days of fun and wine tasting, I was in a bit of a conundrum about fall winery outfits, but I went with my gut and was pleasantly please. I imagine dresses on others, but you know I live in my jeans…

As a denim lover, I obviously run into times when I feel as though maybe I don’t dress up enough. I’m always comfortable and I always have pockets, but I really could (and probably should) wear more dresses, skirts, and shorts.

That isn’t my default, however, so I’ve mastered (I hope) how to dress up a pair of jeans for just about all everyday occasions.

Now, obviously, distressed jeans are difficult to make look professional and black jeans are infinitely more professional looking than light wash jeans (see this fabulous black jeans and brown boots ensemble). The trick, however, is really in what you pair with your denim.

The two most obvious additions to making a jeans outfit idea look more tailored is to add a structured top or coat and to wear a classic silhouette for your shoes (see all my go to shoes to wear with skinny jeans). In this case, it was my white blazer and favorite loafers…

Fall Winery Outfits

When we were northern California a few weeks ago, I planned outfits for each of our activities, but it really took me until the last morning to find my perfect solution for what to wear in wineries in fall and for a full day of activities.

Obviously my blazer and dress ensemble was also great for wine tasting, but bike riding would have been difficult in just such a look.

So for our final day in Napa, this is what I wore. And I was so comfortable that I wore it to drive us the six hours back to LA – the only change was that my hair went up into a bun!

Looking for a fall vibe, try one of these autumn blazers!

What to Wear to a Winery in Cool Weather

The trick to any fall winery outfit is layering, so you can adapt to cool tours of caves, warmth of indoors, and possible warmth from wine tasting! 😉

I love a good cotton tee under a blazer – long sleeve, ¾ sleeve, or short sleeve depending on the weather predictions! See my go to brands for organic cotton tshirts.

I also love an easy sweater to throw on or take off. Any of these outfits below would be good fall winery outfits as well.

WINE COUNTRY TRAVEL

Even living in Los Angeles, our preferred California wine country was back up here in the north (though I will say the Santa Ynez area had some LOVELY wines).
