My Favorite Fall Fashion Essentials & Trends
My Favorite Fall Fashion Essentials & Trends:
Goodbye summer and hello fall! Did anyone else feel like summer went by in a blink of an eye? I mean just like that, it’s officially fall. Bring on everything pumpkin flavor, the crisp cool air, changing colors of the leaves, apple orchards, pumpkin patches, and cozy warm sweaters! This leads me to today’s post.
Today I am excited to share with you my favorite fall fashion essentials & trends! I mean when I think of fall fashion I immediately think of cozy layers & boots. Each fall season, I am always on the look for more sweaters that are fitted but still leaves room for layers making me want to wear it every single day. I am obsessed with sweaters and crew neck sweatshirts, along with boots, jeans, pants, scarves, hats, and more.
One word: Cozy Sweaters & Cardigans
Like I mentioned before, I am obsessed with sweaters, cardigans, and sweatshirts. There are so many fun ways to create such cute outfits and stay warm. Nothing says fall more than a cozy sweater paired with jeans and boots. I love my sweaters to either be big and bulky or fitted with enough room to layer underneath. What I do, sense I already have a ton of them (here in Minnesota it is a must have item for fall and winter), I lay them out on my bed and start creating layer looks with my button shirts, flannels, dresses, jumpsuit, rompers, or blouses. The choices are endless to pick from. You don’t have to overdo it with the layering. I say do what you are comfortable with, because no one wants to be sweating or feeling uncomfortable all day.
Must have outerwear:
A go to jacket, vest, or trench coat is fall favorite of mine. Each year this trend tends to stay the same, but the colors change. This goes with my sweater rule in layering. Now here in Minneapolis, early mornings can be very chilly in the fall and a jacket or vest is a must. What I love about jackets or vests is that you can either dress them up for work or events or you can dress them down for a more casual look for those brisk walks around the lake with a dear friend or to your local coffee shop.
Accessorize, Accessorize:
Fall accessories are another favorite trend for me. They make an outfit pop with life and color. My fall accessories include scarves, simple jewelry, hats (baseball caps, fedoras, felt stiff hats), purse(s), and belts. Accessories are what pull all the pieces together. Just like your outerwear, you can dress up your outfit or down. I have an obsession with scarves. If I could, I would wear a sweater and scarf every day paired with jeans, leggings, or fitted sweatpants. For me, scarves are one essential to keeping me warm on cold fall days.
Fall must have footwear: tall boots, mule booties, and ankle boots.
“These boots are made for walking…” I couldn’t resist saying that. That being said, boots & mule booties are another favorite fall trend of mine. They are not only cute but comfortable too. You can pair them with adorable warm wool socks or a dress. The right pair of footwear can compliment your outfit. With ankle boots, I wear either jeans or pants that are folded at the bottom. I also wear ankle boots with warm socks while wearing leggings. Now for tall boots, I go for the classic look, which is wearing them with dark blue jeans. If you’re looking for more spunk, try the tall high heel boots with a sweater dress. I think mule booties are a great in between end of summer and early fall footwear.
