Target's clothing selections are full of fashionable choices to perk up your fall and winter outfits, so Insider spoke to three professional stylists to see what items they're drawn to right now.

Read on to see which garments, shoes, and accessories fashion experts would buy from the retailer this month.

Jaime Diehl, a personal stylist based in Florida, said these cropped, faux-leather trousers stand out for their "easy cut and tapered silhouette."

The fit is relaxed but still sleek and fashion-forward, and Diehl told Insider she would wear these pants with a pair of pumps and a chunky sweater.

"I love to mix rich textures like that," she added.

"If you don't have a pair of faux-leather leggings, get one stat," Alison Lumbatis, a Dallas-based stylist, blogger, and founder of styling service Outfit Formulas, told Insider.

They're multi-functional and can be dressed up or down — with a sweatshirt and sneakers for casual days or heels and a jewel-toned blouse for a night out.

Erica Russo, a New York-based stylist and former fashion director for Bloomingdale's, was drawn to this versatile shirt-jacket hybrid piece.

She told Insider the "shacket" is not just trendy — it's also a practical choice for cooler months.

"Part jacket, part shirt — the 'shacket' is ideal to wear on its own for a cool day, or can be layered under a heavier coat when the weather turns colder," she said.

This faux-leather top is a unique and bold pick.

This top, part of the Who What Wear collection, features three-quarter length balloon sleeves and a relaxed, tunic-like fit that can be tucked into pants or worn loose and flowing.

Diehl said she would pair this top with distressed denim and finish the look with cool booties.

Russo shared that knits were big on fall runways this year and that this sweater dress feels particularly trendy.

"I love the strong shoulder that makes it feel special and modern and the belting detail that adjusts the fit for a more tailored or loose look," she told Insider.

A piece like this, both stylish and cozy, makes for an excellent work-from-home look.

Tie-dye is still trending for laid-back looks.

Summer may be over, but the chill aesthetic of tie-dye isn't going anywhere. Diehl pointed out this hoodie, featuring a muted navy and white tie-dye pattern, as a stylish choice.

She suggested wearing it with head-to-toe sweats or pairing the top with jeans and "cool kicks."

These lace-up wedge boots, which feature a faux-shearling lining, are "a great way to add height and look chic on a cool day," according to Diehl.

The hidden heel and sleek monochrome design add to the shoe's style, and they come in taupe, cognac, and black.

"For the price, this boot is a lot of look," Russo told Insider.

She highlighted the boots' stacked heel, faux-shearling detail, and multicolor laces as features that make the shoes visually interesting — while still being suitable for winter days.

This buckled combat boot is a must-have, according to Russo.

These chunky boots will add a punk-rock edge to any outfit, and Russo called them the style of the season.

They feature a 1.5-inch block heel for some added height, but they're still comfortable to walk in.

Russo suggested styling them with jeans on casual days or pairing them with a girly midi dress to add some edge to a more feminine look.

"Black ankle boots are a closet workhorse for fall and winter," Lumbatis told Insider.

She recommended these timelessly chic boots, with a pointed toe and "just-right heel," for finishing off cold-weather outfits.

This pair also features a trendy faux-crocodile exterior for an added touch of style.

Russo said she liked this tan purse, which can be worn as a cross-body bag or carried as a clutch, for its sophisticated woven pattern and its day-to-night versatility.

A timeless style like this isn't the kind of piece you'll toss into the back of your closet once fall is over.

"The caramel color is a classic and can be worn now and well into spring," she told Insider.

According to Lumbatis, snakeskin is the pattern of the moment, and this bag exemplifies the trend while still being easy to pair with virtually any color.

Lumbatis suggested trying to style the purse with other patterns for a mismatched look.

"Accessories are the easiest way to spice up an outfit," Diehl told Insider.

She said she likes this leopard-print scarf for its chic, muted tones. The lightweight brown-and-black accessory can easily be thrown on to add flair to simple ensembles.

Diehl also suggested trying a bright pop of color.

This saturated, magenta-toned scarf was another one of Diehl's top picks. The oversized piece features a subtle plaid pattern, and it's easy to pair with staples you already have.

The color sets it apart, according to the stylist, and a scarf like this is great for brightening up fall and winter basics while adding some extra warmth.

Simple jewelry can take an outfit to the next level.

This simple, chic necklace caught Lumbatis' eye. She told Insider that "it's subtle enough for everyday wear."

Throwing on the hammered bar pendant with a muted gold finish can complete virtually any outfit, and the long chain makes it all the more cool and relaxed.
