When the weather gets cooler and pumpkin spice shows up everywhere, you know it’s time to start slipping into your autumn wardrobe! With all the cozy coats, cute fall hats, and other accessories, it's the perfect season to play around with your style. The outfit options are practically endless when you're layering clothes! 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. It's probably a bit brighter than the looks you're used to seeing in October or November, but that's what makes it so special!

Along with your favorite go-to sweater dresses and fall dresses, now is also the time to break out your skirts of all lengths. 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!

One look through this gallery, and you'll have all the plus-size outfit ideas for fall that you could ever dream of. Happy browsing!
