But if you're not sure where to begin, let your favorite celebrities be your guide. Hollywood can be a great source of inspiration for plus-size outfit ideas for fall.
For starters, stars like Melissa McCarthy and Amber Riley aren't afraid to break fashion "rules." While many people gravitate towards earth tones when autumn rolls around, these celebs know that bright colors look just as great in the fall. For example, check out Melissa's sunny yellow coat.

All you have to do is pair them with some cooler-weather finds like ankle boots or tights to make them seasonally appropriate. Here, we've got outfit ideas for both casual and dressy outings, all designed to make you look good and feel good!

Leather Mini Skirt
Candice Huffine's leather mini skirt is too dang cool! Pair it with a plain T-shirt and denim jacket for a perfectly balanced outfit.
