5 FALL TRENDS & HOW I STYLE THEM

Okay guys, I am back for my FAVORITE season for fashion! I, along with probably every other girl in the world, LOVE fall fashion. I love being able to layer on all of my favorite pieces and really show my personal style. I don't always follow the trends, but I definitely have my own sense of style and know what I like when I see it. So, if that means I am following a trend then I guess I am, but if I am not, no big deal. Anyways, I thought I would share with you guys 5 pieces that I am personally loving this fall and examples of affordable ones that you can purchase yourselves! I think I might have one "splurge" in the boots, but they were so cool I had to include them! Let me know what else you guys want to see on here, I would love to know if you have any requests!


1. Statement Sleeves



Okay, so I know for a fact that these are "on trend" because I see them EVERYWHERE. Whether they have ruffles, bell sleeves, balloon sleeves, ties, etc., detailed statement sleeves are such a fun trend that I am on board with. I remember when puffy sleeves were in when I was a poor college student and I had three puffy sleeved tops that I bought on clearance at JcPenny (lol) that were on constant rotation, so I know that I am going to do the same with these ones!  They can be worn on their own or you can layer a really cool blazer vest, leather vest or fur/shag vest over the top to change up the look and add a little more warmth without covering the sleeves. Here are some that are on my wish list:



2. Statement Boots





 Same as above, definitely on trend right now! I feel like (and I still might do a future post on this) there are SO many trends of statement boots that I want to jump on the wagon for! Whether they are velvet, patent leather, bold colors, chunky hardware, embroidery or bold prints, I think that bold boots in general are such an easy way to really spice up your outfit. Even just a plain white t-shirt, your favorite jeans and a pair of statement boots is such a trendy and put-together outfit. These are my three that I have picked up: floral embroidered boots from Target, chunky cut-out moto boots from H&M and these dark burgundy shiny (not patent though) boots from Boohoo that I picked up last year. I listed below a few as well so hopefully you can choose a pair or they can give you some inspiration!



3. Graphic/Slogan Tees




 I think that especially since the Gucci t-shirt and other designer t-shirts came out, I have been seeing a lot more styling of graphic/slogan tees. I am such a comfortable dresser that this is right up my alley! I love having something that I can wear with any type of bottom (skirt, leather pants, sweats, leggings or jeans) and have a totally different look. I actually think that this is something that I would get so much use out of over the years that I wouldn't mind investing a little in a nice t-shirt. My personal take on this is to (of course) pick neutral colors for both the tee and the font so that you can style it as many ways as possible. Red is huge this fall, so I picked a few with some red in them as well!





4. Faux fur/shag jacket





 This isn't anything new to this year, but I think it is a must-have for adding some character to your outfit and keeping you warm! I got mine last year from Target for around $40 and it is so cozy and stylish. I love layering it over a graphic or band tee with some mom/boyfriend jeans and flat boots for a edgy/tomboy look or with black skinnies and a sleek turtleneck for a more sophisticated night time look! I almost always wear my hair up in a top knot when I am wearing mine because it is a little top-heavy and I think it just completes the look a little better to wear your hair up. I included a couple of vests too in case the jacket is too much fur for you!



5. Longline Jacket



A long trench or duster style jacket is definitely a favorite for layering in the fall! They keep you so much warmer since they cover your butt & they look so sophisticated. My favorite one I picked up from boohoo.com after watching a YouTube video last year from Alex Garza saying that it was her favorite coat. It is one size fits all (probably not true), but it does fit me. It comes in a bunch of colors, but I have the grey and would highly recommended it! I want to order the camel one ASAP!
