If there is one fall fashion essential that you can rely on to make your wardrobe on point it is denim! Transition from summer to autumn seamlessly with light and dark washed denim pieces.

A favorite go-to is a denim jacket! Keeps you cool on those fall nights but can also be your outfit’s staple piece.

3. Ruffle their feathers

A fall essential this season is the classy and frilly ruffle. The idea of ruffles may come off as too much but it really is all about how you wear them! Think of it as an accessory. It doesn’t have to be extra. Ruffles, big or small, can diversify your wardrobe and enhance any ensemble. The most common ruffle trend this fall 2017 is ruffled sleeves whether it is on a t-shirt, long-sleeved shirt, or on a blouse. Better yet finish the outfit with a pair of high-waisted pants! Ruffles are a fun way to bring your outfit to reach new heights (ordinary to extraordinary)! You can rest assure you will not FALL short with a little ruffle!

4. Fall Florals

Floral is one of those things that may just never go out of style. It is fun, it is flirty, and most of all it is here this fall season! It is one of those styles that are traditionally associated with femininity but mixing floral with a deeper color palette or pattern is a style game changer. Turn to darker color floral to be modern and edgy or a bright colored floral to have a more playful outfit. Next time you’re in a store reach for that floral bomber jacket or the top embroidered with a floral print – I promise you won’t regret it!

5. Leather Weather

Be bold with leather. Leather is the perfect fabric to fall into autumn with and adding a touch of it to your wardrobe in a practical way does not have to be hard! Incorporate it with a leather jacket, mini-skirt, leggings, slip-on sneakers, or handbag such as a crossbody. Better yet, want to take your fall look one step further? Top your outfit with a leather vest or pair your outfit with bold leather loafers. Maybe that is too much leather for you and you’re just not ready for a full leather style? Then focus on leather details instead such as a dress with leather pockets.

6. Velvet Vibes

We’re bringing Velvet back. This luxe fabric is taking over this fall season making it a fashion essential. Its soft, rich looking, and polish finish will sure make you shine. So, now we know about the velvet trend, how can we bring it to our closets? Start with the basics. Boots or handbags are a great place to start. However, if you want to embrace velvet to it’s fullest opt in for a flowy velvet dress or bomber jacket. Go traditional with deep color velvets or make an even louder statement with hot pinks, emeralds, and golds. Whatever your vibe is, there’s a velvet option for you.

7. Nail it!

Soft, Sleek, Suede. What’s great about suede (or faux suede) is it can be worn different ways, paired with any outfit, and is an instant fashion statement.

Tell me about it, stud. Traditionally, we think of studs as being over the top. However, this fall season the stud style is more sophisticated and subtle. This little embellishment can give your style huge personality and make a bold statement. Say yes to studs this fall with a studded handbag, detailed studded shoes (pointed-heels, slip-on sneakers, and ankle boots), belts, or jewelry.

10. Boots made for walking
