Ten Fashion Staples for Your Fall Wardrobe

Get ready for fall with these college staples

Ten Fashion Staples for Your Fall Wardrobe
Urban Outfitters

1. The Flannel

Bring out those flannels this season. Not only do they provide a laid back vibe, the 90s grunge staple brings out boyish charm and helps to stay nice and cozy. If it gets too hot, take it off and tie it around your waist for an "it" girl factor. Pair them with your favorite sneakers, Doctor Martins, or combat boots.

2. The Cable Knit

Cable knit sweaters are my all time favorite go to for the fall and winter seasons. You can dress them up or down by just changing your shoes. I tend to reach for neutral colors that aren't too flashy. These are a must in the colder months.

3. The Bomber Jacket

The Bomber Jacket has made quite a comeback in the summer months, being made of lighter materials. Solids to patchwork, there's many designs to choose from. They range in different material such as satin, suede, and leather. For the colder months grab one with a heavier material to keep you nice and warm.

4. The Parka Jacket

Parka jackets aren't going anywhere. My choice of color is olive green, but switch it up and try burgundy or mustard.

5. The Blanket Scarf

Blanket scarves began to thrive last fall and winter. The large scarves are big enough to be used as a blanket and offer the extra warmth and style needed to survive the colder months while being comfortable.

6. Metallic

This is more for the adventurous. Metallic jackets, shoes, or anything are sure to be a trend this fall. With fall being a rather muted season, metallics go the extra mile in making you stand out and giving a trendy look. If you're scared of wearing metallics, start small with accessories and work your way up.

7. The Leather Jacket

This is an obvious staple. The leather jacket should be a staple in every woman or man's closet. It gives you the option of staying warm while it gets cooler in the mornings or evenings. If it's any colder, layer up underneath and throw one on for an instant cool factor.

8. Think Pink!

Pink was seen on the runway of last year's preview to fall fashion. Don't think hot pink. Think darker tones of pink. My personal favorite is dusty rose. Darker pinks create a softer, more mature, and more romantic appearance. Too bright of a pink and you might end up looking younger.

9. The Turtle Neck

Okay. Turtle necks don't exactly sound sexy, but they can be. Just find one that fits you just right in a trendy color or pattern. The turtle neck makes sure your neck stays warm without the hassle of having to grab a scarf on your way out the door. They also make for great layering pieces.

10. Pumpkin

Not only is your beloved pumpkin flavored coffee coming back in fall, but so is the color on the runway. Personally, I'm not much of a fan of pumpkin (the taste nor color). But the muted orange color is making it's way into fall seasoned nail polishes, makeup, and clothes.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
