Here, 9 easy fall wardrobe updates to instantly elevate your style. And as always, you can find everything in this catalog.
Leopard
Like it was ever gone. Seriously, leopard is a classic pattern and one that truly never goes out of style, but this season we are seeing it back in a big way. New to animal prints? Treat it as a neutral and pair it with any solid item in your wardrobe. The easiest way to incorporate this iconic pattern into an outfit is through accessories or go all in with a leopard dress or jumpsuit.
Something Sparkly
The closer you look to a disco ball this season, the better. 🙂 Full-on sparkle, glitz, and glam were a major trend and a continuation of the obsession with all things fancy these past few seasons. From head to toe sequined dresses and outfits to a subtle touch of sparkle on a bag or a shoe, the message this season is to go glittery or go home.
Something Bright
Dopamine dressing means color has never been brighter or more vibrant. From boldly patterned pieces to colorblocked looks to monochromatic outfits in one single fabulous color, you’ll find something for you if this trend intrigues you. Consider a flat or a bag in a pretty shade, or embrace the trend with a full on outfit.
Platforms
A short girl’s best friend, these elevated shoes are back, giving us all a much needed combination of lift + comfort. From crazy high styles to slightly elevated boots, sandals and pumps, there’s a style for every shoe lover.
Bold Bag
These are bags you’ll never want to put down. They are truly outfit makers. From bold colors to fabulous details and patterns to intriguing shapes, there is a style here for every wardrobe and every budget. From tiny clutches to oversized totes, you’ll find styles from the merely decorative to the fully functional.
Moto Jacket
If you already have one (and if you’ve been following me for any length of time, you probably do), you’re covered. If not, this is a fab season to find a moto jacket that you love. There’s a jacket for every budget, and in every material from vegan leather to real leather to suede. One style that’s made a major comeback is the bomber, and you’ll find them in every configuration, from quilted to floral to knit to leather.
Sheer Blouse
The sheer trend sounds unwearable at first, and when you look at the runways, you’ll agree that most of those styles aren’t real-life friendly. We’re not going to be hanging out with our underwear exposed. But subtle sheer touches can be so pretty and feminine. A blouse is the easiest way to wear this trend, so look for a style with sheer shoulders, sleeves, or insets.
Boots
Fall is always boot season, but there has never been more variety than there is this year. From lug-sole and platform boots to moto styles, knee-high equestrian inspired boots, rubber muck boots, and over the knee stretch boots, you’ll find them all this year. Cowboy boots lead the pack, so if these appeal to you, consider them as an instant update for all of your basic outfits.
Something Feminine
The extent you embrace the feminine trend has to do with your personal style, from all out frills and ruffles to subtler hints at femininity. From lace dresses and tiny collars to pearl accents everywhere, there is so much to love about being a woman this season. The easiest way to add something feminine yet versatile to your wardrobe is with a pretty blouse. Pair it with jeans, skirts, or trousers for an elegant touch to any outfit.
