We have officially made it through the first month of Fall. Which means the weather has probably changed sufficiently enough for you to justify some much needed retail therapy. Or at least that is my story and I am sticking to it. I am typically not one to follow the crowd when it comes to Fashion Trends. But, I am excited to say that a lot of what appears to be “in” this season is ca-yute. After being home with my girls for the last six years, my work wardrobe has been seriously lacking and in need of some serious help. After going through my closet, I realized that even though I still had a lot of staple pieces, I needed some help in bringing them to life.
So with that in mind, here are some of the trends that I am feeling this year.
PLAIDS
Of course, we all know Plaids fall into a very classic category, but what if you add belts and grommets to it. That kinda makes it next level, does it not? Well, that is what I am going to tell myself. There is nothing like a classic with some oomph added to it. I also really like the way that plaid looks over a bolder color, not only does it tone the other color down, but it dresses the entire outfit up.
REDS
Typically we associate Red with the holidays, and Christmas but because their are so many hues in this color family. Red is now making its way into our fall repertoire. This one will take a little effort on my part, simply because I don’t generally go this bold. I tend to stick to a more traditional color palette. But, I admit that this year I find this color catching my eye, over and over again.
BOOTS
I can’t lie my favorite part of Fall and Winter is Boots. Not only because my feet are almost always cold, but just because of the way they add to whatever you are wearing. This season the choices are many and varied, which is a-ok with me. This year I find myself being partial to the animal prints, the knee highs and of course the COMBAT boot. You may not get the last one but I was raised a Jersey Girl, in Jersey Snow. So… maybe that will explain it.
Everyone has their favorite articles of clothing from every season. What are you excited to slip into this Fall?
