These Cozy Outfits Are the Fashion Equivalent of Listening to Norah Jones on a Fall Day

If you're lucky enough to live somewhere where the landscape changes color, I don't have to explain how cozy a classic fall day can be. The light hitting the trees makes them glow, crinkly dropping leaves add some subtle background noise, and your favorite sweater feels just as soft as you remember it did in years past, if not more.

On this particular dream October afternoon, Norah Jones is on the boombox—the exact Come Away With Me CD you took from your parent's house, in fact. (Your mom used to always listen to it while cutting your honeycrisp apples for an after school snack, but don't worry, she doesn't miss it. She has the album on Spotify now.)

All you need to complete the vibe is a cup of piping hot coffee and the perfect fall outfit. Or actually... you might only need the outfit? There's something about the right turtleneck that can get you in the autumn coffee house spirit anywhere, no matter what playlist is blasting.

To get the "Listening to Norah Jones on a fall day" look, the rules are simple. You want to wear something you're comfortable in, but it also needs to be cute enough that you can picture yourself as a love or breakup song heroine. Layers are important, as it can get warm outside post-sunrise, sunrise (and I said, "hoh, ooh, hoo, ooh").

You'll also want to lean a little Y2K with your overall look. This isn't just any fall day we're talking about—it's a fall day back when Starbucks still had their original cozy interiors. Mini skirt over pant setups are encouraged, the Bitchy Little Jacket you sourced on Poshmark is a necessity, and if you can find a pair of knit fingerless gloves... wear them proudly. It's okay to look like you just stepped out of a Delia's catalogue; they were definitely listening to "Don't Know Why" while shooting to set the mood.

Ahead, we've found seven outfits to inspire your own Norah Jones fall fashion spell. Keep scrolling, by which I mean come away with me, and see them all.

Sweet Stockings

Is Laufey our modern day Norah Jones? Nooo, she's our modern day Laufey. Not everyone has to be someone else, obviously. Still, its true that both have beautiful voices and a penchant for early 2000s style. While the Bitchy Little Jacket is a major player in this look, its the knee socks and flats that do the heaviest lifting. The longer, thicker, and more ribbed your stockings, the better. Also of note: the bow on the shoes, the easy, undone waves, and the Chloe Paddington bag, which was originally released in 2005... just one year after Feels Like Home.

If you want to go peak cozy, grab both your softest turtleneck and favorite barn jacket—you can even up the ante by pretending you're listening to Norah Jones in the fall in the Cotswolds. Just remember that the color palette is integral: any shade the leaves might turn is a welcome addition, but burgundy should absolutely make an appearance in your look.

Like the rest of us in 2004, Ms. Jones had a penchant for polka dots. After this summer, there's no way you're not holding on to a similarly patterned skirt or pair of capris. Add your favorite crewneck and a little useless scarf and you're more than set. Also: remember that flip flops for fall are a go this year.

Okay, you can play a little Coldplay too... we're still in a place of "Yellow," after all. Autumn-ize your butter yellow obsession with a Y2K-esque zip up cardigan paired with a vintage clutch and fun pants like this beaded black style. The last step is a set of black and white suit shoe-inspired mules for a touch of twee.

Short Skirt, Long Jacket

"Short Skirt/Long Jacket" has a different kind of fall playlist essence, but there's something cozy about it nonetheless. It's the 2001 of it all, probably. Pure nostalgia. Here, PinkPantheress tapped into the energy with a perfect combo of her own: a black leather mini skirt, long pinstriped jacket, and cozy gray tee underneath. Did you notice that the slouchy socks and loafers combo is going on here, too? It's a must.

Miu Miu girl Paloma Elsesser wore this look from the brand last month, and gave us a perfect example of both nostalgic tank-over-anything layering and the importance of the blue and brown color combo in the process. Her socks and pumps pairing and fur stole only add to the allure. I want to sip cider and watch the leaves fall on this couch, in this outfit, specifically.

Headphones On

@oliviarodrigo/Instagram

If I've learned anything this year, it's the importance of keeping your headphones on. Sometimes it's to help you accept the pain, and sometimes it's because you need to listen to your favorite indie/folk/acoustic songs without interruption while staring out the window and pretending you're in a movie. Here, Olivia Rodrigo models the perfect way to engrain a sense of musicality into your outfit. Match your headphones to your cardigan and add some plaid and a collar, because it's fall.
