Fall in Love with Fall Fashion: 12 Fashion Trends to Try Right Now

Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall."
~ F. Scott Fitzgerald

Fall is my absolute favorite season!

Autumn is the time to embrace all things pumpkin spice, toasty campfires, and crisp days spent apple picking. The leaves are changing and the days are sunny, yet cool….and you know what that gets me excited about…..?! 

FALL FASHION!!! 

Gimme’ all the cozy sweaters and booties. Bring on the layers, leggings and scarves. 

In researching the latest fall trends, the Bird’s Tail team has determined that this season is all about classics with a twist. But, don’t fret my minimalist friends—minimalism is still on trend: just a add a pair of big hoop earrings and you are fall fashion ready.

We’ve rounded up 12 fall fashion trends that you can actually wear (and not outrageous pieces like some of the things we see on the runways!). Happy fall, friends. Let the coziness commence!

12 inspirations to update your wardrobe this fall:

Animal Print

If you asked me last year if I like animal print, I would have said no way! But animal print is so fun to me now! It can be subtle details on a clutch or shoes or an all-over print on everything from sweaters to athleisure wear.

Dainty charms

Charms are timeless and go with any outfit. Wear them on a bracelet, necklace or even on earrings! They are a simple way to dress up an outfit and express meaning through a tiny wearable object.

These pieces can be find online at Bird’s Tail!

Camouflage

It’s back! Let’s be honest, did it really ever go out? We love camouflage for fall and year-round really.

This look can found at Shop Privy.

In fact, we are having a Shop Privy pop-up at our studio this Thursday, Sept 19. If you are in the area, feel free to stop on by!

Details: 229 E Fairmount Ave, Whitefish Bay, 6:30-9PM

the long blazer

Blazers are a staple, and this fall they have an updated longer-length—almost a trench coat like look. Pair with your favorite long necklace and you’re ready to go!

Unexpected pearls

Pearls are perfect for everyday style. And as a surprising twist, we like to take the classic pearl and pair it with modern, clean lines to give them an updated pop of edge.

Jewel tones

Think deep fuchsia, navy, and emerald green. These shades are moody and fun to take from day to night.

Faux fur

Fur adds a pop of fun! On a jacket perhaps, or details on shoes, the possibilities are endless.

Cool kicks

We love love love a pair of cute and edgy sneakers. Wear your kicks with jeans, leggings or even a dress or pencil skirt!

Leather,baby!

Traditional, yet very on-trend for fall. Leather jackets never really go out of style; it’s about choosing the right cut and shape. Leather is also making its way onto other fashion staples such as an accent on a classic jean jacket, a pair of tennis shoes or a sweater.

Layered bracelets

You can’t go wrong with layered bracelets. Pop on a cute jacket or button-up with the sleeves cuffed to expose that beautiful stack. SO cute.

Denim done different

While skinny jeans are still in style, the boyfriend jean, high waisted jeans and the flare (yes the flare is back) are having a moment. Try an updated twist on a traditional favorite as an addition to your wardrobe.

Several of DL1961 jeans like these can be found at @styledbyshop

All about earrings

Earrings are stealing the show this fall. From statement hoops to mismatched earrings, to a little (or a a lot of) sparkle and even asymmetry, there are so many different ways to rock your ear candy!

Earring can be found at Bird’s Tail.
