It is finally October and in Florida that does not necessarily mean fall weather, but it can mean fall fashion. New York Fashion Week recently ended and we saw many trends that will be filling the stores.
Denim everything
Denim has never been out of style, but this fall denim will be popular and not just as jeans. Jeans with embellishments or distress are gaining popularity. Also, over-sized denim jackets are a way to make any simple t-shirt and jeans edgy and they are actually very warm for when it cools down.
High-neck shirts and dresses
Turtle necks and high necklines on dresses were a very popular trend at Fashion Week. You can layer a turtle neck under a sweater or wear a high neck dress under one. These dresses are easy to dress up or down with other accessories.
Statement booties
Boots are always a fall essential, but this fall the booties should be the statement piece of the outfit. Pair this stand-out footwear with simple jeans and a T, so all the attention is on your feet.
Ruffle accents
Ruffles were also a big trend at Fashion Week. Ruffles on shirts, at the bottom of sleeves and on dresses are a girly accent that can make a simple dress or shirt much more dresses up. Going overboard with this accent though can make you look more like a pirate, so wear this trend sparingly. Bell sleeves are a great way to avoid being too over the top.
Neutrals
Fall colors are often thought of as burgundy, brown or olive, but this fall wearing monochromatic neutrals is on trend. Wearing all beige can seem boring, but fun accessories can make these outfits very stylish. Also tan and grey are a great combo that is less boring and incorporates these neutrals.
Off-the-shoulder tops
Off-the-shoulder dresses and tops are perfect for wearing out. You can showing off some skin but not too much so it is still classy. A choker is a great accessory to pair with these tops. These are also very cute with denim skirts.
Mini skirts
The mini skirt is also great for wearing out. Remember to always keep these at least to the length that covers your bottom. A mini skirt can make anyone legs look longer and are perfect to pair with the statement booties mentioned above.
Velvet
Velvet has always been a staple in fall fashion. It is warm and comfortable, but can look very edgy and fashionable. Velvet details are also very in for fall, such as a velvet choker or headband.
Fur
Fur was huge on the runway this year, from fur collars on shirts and jackets, to full fur coats. Faux-fur is also a better option than real because it is so much cheaper.
Neck ties and chokers
Chokers are continuing to be very popular, but a newer trend at Fashion Week was neck ties for women. These are a great accessory for a simple outfit, and they will make you stand out.
