With the Autumn like weather we have been experiencing here on the East coast, we can’t help but think of the upcoming Fall fashion. When the next season rolls around, we are always ready for a wardrobe change and this year is no different. We welcome the thought of fresh trends and of course an excuse to go shopping! If you too are ready to renew your closet for cool weather than get on board! It’s time to load up on Rocker Chic, Menswear, Animal Prints, and Lace. Check out the looks:
Rocker Chic
Every girl deserves to have her rock star fashion moment. Even if it is just for a night, embracing your inner rocker will make you feel sexy and empowered! Whether you are in town for one night only or willing to wear the trend all world tour long, there are a few essentials needed to perfect the look. The first one that can’t be missed is LEATHER ( or the faux version). This tough material can be worn in so many different ways. You can wear it as a dress, as leggings, as accents on a jacket, or even as accessories. No matter which way you wear leather, it will add edge to any outfit. Throw an oversize graphic tee over a pair of leather leggings for a slouchy ready to rock look. Likewise, statement jewelry in different metals will immediately amplify your style. Add some studs and a strappy pair of pumps and you’ll be cool,edgy, and chic!
Tomboy Style
Fit in with the boys this Fall and suit up in menswear inspired pieces. A crisp button down oxford shirt is classic and is a blank canvas for the rest of your outfit. Better yet, a button down will always be in style! Next add a pair of trousers for a sophisticated ensemble. If you want to lighten up the severity of the menswear, opt for a bright pair of pants. For the cool weather you will certainly need a warm sweater. Who doesn’t love a cozy oversize boyfriend cardigan?! Don’t forget your accessories to finish off the look. A lace up oxford pump is a bit masculine AND a bit feminine at the same time. A sky high heel keeps the look sexy. A leather crossbody handbag in a rich color is both utilitarian and fashionable. A sturdy bag like this is perfect for work or class! Be sure to top off your outfit with a wool fedora. Wearing hats is one the best parts of Fall fashion!
Animal Instincts
This fierce trend is a BOLD choice for Autumn! Animal prints or animal inspired pieces are going to be huge when cool weather hits. You can see these animal interpretations on everything from dresses to handbags, and even jewelry. Work this trend in a daring way by sporting animal print in an unexpected color. We are loving the red Valentino studded number above. (which by the way incorporates this trend AND rocker chic!) Remember you don’t have to stick with just cheetah and leopard print. There is an entire animal kingdom out there. Try a snake print or even a peacock feather pattern. Another way to think outside the box? Textures! Don ankle boots or a handbag in pony skin fabric. Let out your inner animal!
Noir Noir
What else is on deck for Fall? Lace, lace, and more lace! This isn’t just your ordinary sweet feminine lace. This upcoming season you are going to see lace in dark seductive colors. We are especially seeing this in black and deep blues. Lace details can be worn on everything and everywhere. Grab a pair of sexy pumps for night or rock the unexpected lacey sneaker for day. You can even wear it in different doses. The lace looks range from dresses with lace trim to a blazer made entirely of the fabric.
As always, these Fall trends have us excited for chic outfits to come and we hope you are too! So pick a trend and dive right in…Fall is just around the corner after all!
