The Mini Revival: Leather, Tights, and Boots, Oh My!
Every year there is a fall variation of a skirt, large sweater, and boots that are dusted off and prepared to be worn at any fall occasion. This year is just the same. Time to continue the trend of mini skirts we’ve seen all summer. 251
Though for this fall reach for the dark brown suede or leather miniskirts. The lacy cloth slips underneath a billowing sweater will also do the trick.
Mini skirts were born to be paired with tights and knee-high boots. While some don’t opt for tights, I think adding in ultra sheer tights brings the look from trying to be put together to actually put together. This combination is the perfect blend of comfortable and sophisticated, ideal for the cooler months ahead.
How to rock it
For a cozy dinner or drink on a heated patio pair your leather mini with sheer black tights, sleek knee-high boots, and an oversized sweater or structured blazer. Bonus points for a bag that matches your boots!
This look strikes the perfect balance between playful and professional. For a night out, swap the tights for sheer ones and add a silky blouse for a touch of glamour.
Pro tip: Don't be afraid to play with textures. A suede mini skirt can be just as chic as leather and adds a different dimension to your outfit.
Suede and Dark Brown: The New Neutrals
Move over, beige and gray – there's a new neutral in town, and it's rich, warm, and oh-so-luxurious. Dark brown is having a major moment this fall, especially when it comes to suede. From jackets to accessories, this deep, earthy tone is the perfect way to ground your autumn wardrobe.
Must-have items: Invest in a dark brown suede handbag or a pair of suede ankle boots. These pieces will instantly elevate any outfit and pair beautifully with the season's other trends.
Styling suggestion: Try a monochromatic look with varying shades of brown for a sophisticated, tonal outfit that's right on trend.
Ugh, I want this and I want it now.
Structured Outerwear: Quiet Luxury at Its Finest
I am also over the term “quiet luxury”. However, thats the best way to describe the outwear this call. We're seeing a shift away from puffy, oversized coats towards more structured, fitted pieces that exude understated elegance. Think tailored wool coats, sleek trench coats, and fitted blazers in high-quality materials.
Why it works: These pieces not only keep you warm but also instantly polish any outfit. They're perfect for the office, weekend brunches, or even casual date nights.
How to wear it: Layer your structured coat over a chunky knit sweater and pair it with your leather mini and knee-high boots. This is a great one to throw on any fit to add an accessory, not just stay warm.
Accessorize with Impact: Chunky Scarves and Bold Belts
Accessories are taking center stage this season, with chunky scarves and statement belts leading the pack. These pieces are not just functional but also serve as the perfect finishing touch to any outfit.
Scarf tips: Opt for oversized, chunky knit scarves in rich fall colors. They add texture and warmth to your look while making a style statement.
Belt tips: Wide belts are back. Use them to cinch in oversized coats or add definition to flowy dresses. Don't be afraid to go for a designer belt as a splurge piece – I aim to spend more money on accessories that can be used with many different outfits. The trick with bells will be to create a dramatic silhouette with the cinching!
Bold Lips
This fall, a bold lip color is your secret weapon for instant glam. Rich reds, deep berries, and even unexpected shades like deep purple are all to be expected
Make it work: For day, try a matte red lip with minimal other makeup for a classic, put-together look. For night, go all out with a glossy berry shade. Delicious.
Putting It All Together
The key to nailing Fall 2024 fashion is in the accessories. Don't be afraid to combine these trends in unexpected ways. Here is going to be my go too outfit this call.
Pair a leather mini skirt with black tights, knee-high boots, and a structured wool coat. Add a chunky scarf and a dark brown suede tote.
Remember, fashion is all about expressing yourself and having fun. These trends are guidelines, not rules. Feel free to adapt them to your personal style and what makes you feel confident and comfortable.
So, go ahead and experiment, mix and match, and most importantly, wear what makes you feel confident when you go out. All outfits need confidence to shine.
