There’s something special about fall in Louisville, and these local FINDS help you make the most of it. Enjoy festive touches for your home, game day essentials, and little ways to slow down and savor the season.
Fall is in full swing in Louisville, and our favorite local shops are giving us even more reasons to love this time of year.

With Thanksgiving gatherings and football Saturdays on the calendar, these local picks offer plenty of inspiration for enjoying the season and supporting Louisville shops along the way.
FASHION & ACCESSORIES
Velvet dress
Step into fall in this ultra-soft brown velvet dress. Long, draped sleeves lend a romantic vibe, while the shorter, tiered hem adds a subtle hint of flirtiness. Wear it with boots or keep things casual with loafers. Find it for $148 at COCO Indigo in Chenoweth Square.
Twilly scarf
Scarves. You can never have just one, and a twilly deserves a spot in your collection. These long, skinny accessories are your square scarf’s cousin and just as versatile. Wear one loosely tied around your neck or knot it onto your purse, which, let’s face it, deserves a little style refresh, too. Grab one (or two) for $15 each at Le Lieu.
Angora sweater
Oh-so-soft to the touch, this angora sweater has a ribbed neckline and sleeves that keep it classic, while a boxy shape gives it a little swing. No wonder it’s a bestseller! Find it in a rainbow of colors for $120 at Lush Lemon.
Sundial necklace
Why have one charm when you can have three? This beautiful paperclip chain brings together a delicate freshwater pearl, a gold sunburst, and stunning amazonite. A scalloped bezel frames the stone for a little extra detail. The necklace is available for $330 at Mérci Boutique.
Cropped jacket
We’d wish for cold weather if it meant snuggling up in this jacket every day! Soft and warm, this camel-colored cropped jacket will quickly become a grab-and-go favorite. Voluminous sleeves and a high collar keep things cozy without sacrificing an ounce of style. Find it for $159 at PinkTag.
HOME GOODS + TABLETOP
Autumn platter
Halloween’s moment may have passed, but fall deserves a longer stay. With a watercolor design in rich autumn hues, this porcelain dish feels right at home through Thanksgiving. Bring it to your dinner table, pile it with cookies, or display it in your living room for a seasonal touch. Pick one up for $64 at Digs Home & Garden.
Fall spreaders
Topped with charming designs, these stainless steel spreaders bring a festive touch to your next party or seasonal get-together. We’re partial to the turkey, but you can pick up a few for $12 each at Darling State of Mind.
Dinner plates
Who says your Thanksgiving table has to stick to traditional shades of fall? Go green with these toile-inspired melamine plates (set of four, $97) for a fresh take on your holiday spread. Pair them with coordinating linen napkins (set of four, $164) and napkin rings (set of four, $84) for a table that’s every bit as festive — just a little less predictable. All items are available at Fleur de Lis Interiors.
Museum Bee
These buzz-worthy adornments are the very definition of a Louisville original. Handmade with recycled materials, artist Trace Mayer uses historical picture frames, jewelry, and bourbon barrel staves to connect us with the past. Bee careful, you may soon find yourself a collector! New designs are released every Wednesday. Shop them online for $65.
HOBBIES + RELAXATION
Paper goods book
Packed with 250 pages of colorful, textured paper, this book is practically begging you to put down your phone and make something. Inside, find fold-your-own envelopes, stickers, gift wrap, notebooks, pop-ups, tags, cards, posters, and labels. Because even in a digital world, some things are more fun on paper. Find it for $37 at Louisville’s newest stationery store, Write On!
