I've been seeing a lot of bloggers post about fall trends, and to tell you the truth, I've been asking
what's the big deal?
about a lot of them... Until I realized the best part about them: I
already own them all! A lot a the major fall trends are really just
the major emergence of little details we've all been subtly mixing into
our outfits over the past year! And with that, I bring you...
Oxblood, Military, & Leather...
Oxblood, otherwise known as burgundy or maroon if you aren't super creepy, is probably the "fall-iest" of the fall trends. Dark, rich colors definitely evoke a sense of autumn, and it can basically be worn as a neutral! It goes really well with all textures and patterns, as well as with lots of other shades - I especially like the pop of a pastel or or rich jewel tone against this deep fall shade!
The
Military look has been creeping its way back into fashion after being expelled for bad behavior in the 90s. Luckily, it's back with a far more stylish vengeance! From blouses to skinny cargos to awesome fitted utility jackets with feminine details, the military look is the ultimate neutral! It's also the perfect balance to ultra-feminine styles. By the way, why not throw a bit of camo print into your look while you're at it? Your inner 12-year-old will thank you. Or, at least,
my inner 12-year-old will thank you.
Leather is, yet another, awesome cold-weather neutral. Leather can be so versatile and found in so many different colors, styles, pieces, and prices!
You can be daring and go leather from head to toe or throw on a major statement piece, or you can keep it simple and just go with a simple accessory! Either way, mix leather with any other fabric, print, or color, and you've instantly upped your level of bad-ass-ocity.
So, go out and get going on incorporating these fall trends into your look! Before you head to the mall, check your closet! Something tells me you've accumulated some form of
Oxblood, Military, & Leather somewhere along the way!
