Time to dig through the dark recesses of your closet and the cavernous depths of your drawers to break out your sweaters; fall is just around the corner and comfy knit sweaters and torn boyfriend-jeans are all the rage for the pumpkin-spice-coffee-holding and infinity-scarf-wearing crowd.
Late September, New York fashion week swept through social media and established the autumn trends that we’ll be seeing across the upcoming season.
Chunky knits are always a must for fall, it should be a staple for your fall wardrobe. You can literally pair them with almost anything: jeans, leggings, skirts. The amount of different sweaters is unbelievable; there are turtlenecks, fuzzy sweaters, pastels or powdered sweaters, cable knit, chunky sweaters, and oversized. I bet you never knew there was so many different styles of sweaters, but now you know.
The new big thing this year for fashion is jumpsuits, you can dress it up or down. It is a very versatile piece that anyone could wear. You can definitely layer a jumpsuit once it starts getting a bit colder by bundling up it an over-sized cardigan and a pair of black booties. If the weather is a bit warmer put on some heels and nice statement necklace and you’re ready to go.
Every girl has that one pair of good jeans; maybe its even their mom’s jeans. Mom jeans are actually a very big trend right now, they’re basically high-waisted skinny jeans on the top and boyfriend jeans on the bottom. Of course skinny jeans are more popular, but if you wear some mom jeans you will definitely start a new trend wherever you are. This is where your chunky sweaters come in. Put on your sweater, mom jeans, and a good pair of booties and you’ll be so fashion forward everyone will want to be you.
This next piece you probably already have in your closet from the summer. You’ll probably say something like, “What are you talking about?” I’m talking about denim jackets. Denim jackets are probably the best thing to layer with in the fall even in the winter, it works all year round. Pair it with a cute t-shirt dress or some black jeans and if you’re feeling brave wear denim on denim. Go for it, girl.
The 70’s are coming back to the 21st century and the suede skirt is what people are most excited for right now. You can wear it on a casual day with a cute oversized scarf and low top sneakers or you can even dress it up with a pair of strappy sandals. When it’s colder put on your favorite riding boots and you’ll be screaming fall.
Get all your trendy clothes together and I promise you all eyes will be on you.
