Every year around mid August I start to get the Autumn itch and just want to clothe myself in cozy knits and blanket scarves and drink pumpkin spice lattes. So yes it is no surprise that I have already started to do some fall shopping (hello, sweaters and booties!) and whilst doing so, I noticed lots of trends for the upcoming fall season and I wanted to share my favorites with you ladies. Some of these trends I have tried out before and some are completely new to me, but there is no better time to experiment with fashion like the fall. Let me know in the comments what your favorite fall fashion trend is!
Wide Leg Pants
Wide leg pants are making a comeback ya'll! As I said in yesterdays post, I think wide leg trousers are a great alternative to wearing denim and I just can't seem to get enough of them. Not only are they super comfortable, but they make your legs look incredibly long and make you look (and feel!) put together. For Autumn I would suggest looking for wide leg trousers in neutral tones and pairing them with chunky knit sweaters for a cozy look or pairing them with a fitted turtleneck and a bold statement earring for a more chic look.
Floppy Hats
It is soon time to bid farewell to my straw summer hats and break out all of my fall felt hats. Floppy hats are a fall trend that seems to keep coming back year after year and I am more than OK with it. I think a simple felt hat can really take your look to a whole new level. Pair your hat with a cute Autumnal dress, tights and booties or with a cardigan, tee, jeans and flats- the possibilities are endless. (Tip: floppy hats are also a lifesaver for bad hair days!)
Statement Sleeves
One trend that is taking over the fall fashion world right now are statement sleeves! From ruffle sleeves, to tiered sleeves and billowy sleeves and oversized bell sleeves, it seems like just about every store has some sort of statement sleeve option and I can't seem to get enough. I would suggest pairing your statement sleeve top with some dark skinny denim that way the top can do all the talking. (If this trend is a little outside your comfort zone, I would suggest that you start small with something like a subtle bell sleeve and work your way up.)
A Touch of Tortoise
An accessory trend that I noticed while doing my pre-fall shopping was tortoise. Everything seems to be tortoise right now! Earrings, sunglasses, bracelets- you name it! I love tortoise and think it looks so classy and elegant. And yes, this is the only type of hoop earring you'll ever catch me in haha!
Pumpkin Spice
As much as I love pumpkin spice lattes, the orangey-brown color is not something that usually tickles my fancy. But this fall the color rust or pumpkin spice as I like to call it, is making an appearance and is actually very fitting for the season. At first I hated the trend, but the more I see it the more I admire the warm and cozy color. Personally I am going to ease into this trend with something simple like a tee or cardigan; like I said before, there is no better time to experiment with fashion like the fall!
