Cozy nights, apple cider, and comfy clothes all embody one season: fall. They’re the reasons I wait all year for it, and the excuse I use to do some shopping. In preparation for the new season, I’m eyeing several autumn-esque items at Amazon that have an elevated look, all under $25. 

While it’s technically still summer, a little aspirational shopping ain’t gonna hurt nobody. And thankfully at these cheap prices, my wallet won’t ache either. As Real Simple’s Amazon shopping expert, I’m always keeping tabs on steals and deals, which is how this list was curated. Within Amazon’s Fall Home section, there are tons of stylish seasonal decor from brands like Yankee Candle and Bedsure. Plus, discover editor-loved fashion picks, including knit tops, dresses, and laptop bags. 

Editor-Loved Amazon Fall Finds Under $25

Bedsure Striped Flannel Fleece Blanket

Bedsure Pink Throw Blanket

Amazon

Don’t you want to cozy up under this gorgeous throw blanket? Yeah, me too. In addition to its ultra-soft fleece feel, the blanket just looks expensive. I credit the fluffy ribbed design that’s featured throughout the entire throw. I like the best-seller in this light pink color, which goes with everything. However, it’s also available in several autumnal hues, like mallard green and burnt orange. 

Yankee Candle Spiced Pumpkin Signature Large Tumbler Candle

Yankee Candle Spiced Pumpkin Scented

Amazon

Orig. $30 $28 at Amazon

The Yankee Candle jar is a staple, but if you’re looking for an elevated alternative, this two-wick tumbler pick is it. The candle has a sleek glass canister with dainty graphics on the front, which is a far cry from the original bulky jar. Plus, you can’t celebrate fall without a pumpkin spice-scented candle, and this one delivers notes of the fruit as well as nutmeg, cinnamon, and brown sugar.  

PrettyGarden Tie-Waist Knit Cocktail Dress

PRETTYGARDEN Women's Elegant Long Lantern Sleeve Short Dress Crewneck Tie Waist Knit Cocktail Dress

Amazon

Orig. $40 $24 at Amazon

OK, so it’s not exactly sweater weather yet, but you can’t stop me from eyeing this long-sleeve dress. The dress has all the stylish features I’m looking for this fall: balloon sleeves, knit fabric, and a tie-waist design. That last detail will totally accentuate the waist to give you an hourglass figure.  

Vera Bradley Laptop Organizer

Vera Bradley Women's Cotton Laptop Organizer

Amazon

Orig. $50 $25 at Amazon

I don’t change out my laptop case as often as I do handbags, but this Vera Bradley one is so adorable, I couldn’t help browsing. True to the brand, this laptop organizer has a pretty floral print with all the warm colors you could ask for. It has a padded diamond stitch, zipped insert, exterior pocket, and a handle for easy carrying. 

Vobaga Coffee Mug Warmer

VOBAGA Coffee Mug Warmer

Amazon

Orig. $43 $23 at Amazon

My coffee always gets cold before I can finish the last sip, which is why I’m looking for a solution, like this mug warmer. The small device keeps flat-bottom mugs heated via three settings that go up to 149 degrees Fahrenheit. This way, I can enjoy morning coffee, herbal tea, or hot cocoa without microwaving it halfway through.  

Miulee Striped Corduroy Pillow Covers

MIULEE Moss Green Corduroy Pillow Covers

Amazon

I love the idea of changing the look of throw pillows with a simple cover, and this set from Miulee is a top-rated option. The pillow covers have a hidden side zipper that allows you to slip them over existing cushions, so you can mix up the look and easily wash them. The covers have a fall-esque corduroy exterior, a striped pattern, and tapered corners. Shop them in 35 colors, including several autumnal hues.  

Saodimallsu Cap-Sleeve Knit Top

Saodimallsu Womens Summer Cap Sleeve Tops Casual Crew Neck Loose Fit Knit Lightweight Sweater Pullover Top

Amazon

Orig. $40 $25 at Amazon

I saw a friend wearing a sweater-like top, similar to this knit pullover, and she convinced me to get one. This top is like a short-sleeve version of a sweater complete with capped sleeves, a crew neckline, and a soft knit material. I also appreciate the exposed stitching that gives it a relaxed, yet high-end look. 

Momkids Six-Piece Faux Flower Bouquet

Momkids 6 Pcs Faux Flower Fake Babys Breath Flower Bulk Artificial Gypsophila Bouquet

Amazon

Orig. $19 $12 at Amazon

Taking care of cut flowers is a tough feat, but with a faux bouquet, I won’t have to worry about plant food, changing the water, etc. Made with silk petals, this fall floral bouquet has a realistic appearance that’ll have guests doing a double take. The pack comes with six stem bundles for a full look and is available in 28 colors, but I like this harvest-like orange shade the best for fall.
