This week, we’re talking leather, corduroy, knits and more, to help you create practically styled fall outfits that will keep you cozy and chic. So grab your pumpkin spice latte and let’s explore some Fall trends!
Leather~ The Timeless Trend
Leather is like that friend who can pull off any look~ edgy, chic, or sophisticated. It’s versatile enough to make you feel like a rock star while keeping you warm enough to brave the brisk autumn air…and dare we say the swear word now? Sn*w?!
Benefits of Faux Leather
Durability: Even faux leather is tougher than your ex’s excuses. It can handle the hustle and bustle of daily life without falling apart and won’t break the bank.
Versatility: It goes with literally (no joke) everything~ like a good pair of sweatpants, but definitely more accepted at the work brunch you have this week.
Timelessness: Unlike your high school mixtape, a good leather piece never goes out of style and will give you season after season of wear.
Style Ideas
Leather Outfit: Channel your inner fashionista by pairing a fitted leather skirt with a cozy oversized sweater. It’s like a warm hug that says, “I know how to look damn good, but I also enjoy Netflix and snacks when the kids go to bed.”
Layering: Throw a leather jacket over a mock neck tank and straight leg denim. It’s the perfect look for when you want to show everyone up with your fashion knowledge while ordering a “venti pumpkin spice, please.”
Corduroy~ The Fabric of Fall Dreams
Corduroy is back baby, and it’s here to remind us that comfort and style go together flawlessly.
Benefits of Corduroy
Warmth: This fabric’s unique ridges create air pockets that trap heat, making it ideal for cooler weather.
Comfort: Soft and breathable, corduroy is perfect for all-day wear~because who wants to be uncomfortable like..ever?
Style Ideas
Fall Outfits: A corduroy button up over a simple tee and jeans can instantly elevate your look. It says, “I’m here to conquer school drop off but I also got a laundry list of things to do.”
Mix Textures: Combine a splash of corduroy with a chunky knit sweater or fabric pant. Mixing with corduroy is an effortless way to make a Fall transition in your wardrobe
Knits and Sweaters~ The Layering Legends
Knits and sweaters are the unsung heroes of fall. They are the ultimate layering champions, ready to keep your style leveled up!
Benefits of Knits
Layering Potential: They can be worn alone, layered over shirts, or even under jackets. It’s like a fashion buffet~ take what you want and you can never have too much!
Variety: From lightweight knits that whisper sweet nothings to chunky sweaters that give you a warm embrace, there’s a style for every occasion~ even that “I just woke up” look.
Style Ideas
Layering: Start with a fitted top or mock neck as your base layer. Add a chunky knit and finish with a stylish jacket. Voilà! You’re ready to take on the world~or at least that first meeting of the day.
Fall Fashion Colors: Embrace warmer tones like burnt oranges, deep burgundy, and mustard yellows. Don’t fear the pop of color!
Tips for Effective Layering
Start with a Base Layer: Choose a fitted top or bodysuit as your foundation. Think of it as the bread of your fashion sandwich.
Add a Mid-Layer: Incorporate a sweater or cardigan for warmth. This is where the good stuff goes~ like avocado or bacon.
Finish with an Outer Layer: A stylish jacket or coat can pull the whole look together. It’s like the cherry on top~ except it’s a leather jacket.
Accessorize: Hats, your favorite bag and statement jewelry can add personality to any outfit. Remember, accessories are like sprinkles on your style cupcake~ 100% necessary. (It must be time for our lunch break soon, haha!)
As you embark on your fall fashion journey, remember to have fun with your style. Embrace the textures, play with colors, and don’t be afraid to mix and match. Whether you’re rocking leather clothing or cozy knits, make sure your outfits reflect your unique personality. Happy fall styling, and may your coffee be strong and your layers be cozy!
