Taking on Fall trends
Every year there seems to be a new fashion trend. Sometimes old styles make their way back into fashion, other times a brand new phenomenon occurs that draws the attention of the nation. While a lot of people like to keep it simple, others are eager to hop on the new trend. Some bold trends being showcased this fall are leopard print, faux fur, plaid and the graphic T-shirt.
Animal prints may be a step out of the comfort zone for some people, but there is a subtle way to fashionably wear them. Instead of wearing leopard print leggings with a tiger print shirt, try wearing a solid color outfit with leopard print accents. A black top with solid colored pants and leopard print shoes, a purse or even a belt will still capture the attention of others without being overdone.
Another adventurous but undoubtedly wearable style is faux fur coats. There’s no better way to accomplish a ritzy, sumptuous look than to throw on a big fur coat. Try a bold color or enterprising print and wear it with a black top and pants, maybe incorporating some posh jewelry, a purse or clutch. A simple outfit choice will ensure that you don’t distract from the statement piece, which in this case is an audacious coat.
Then there’s plaid, a simple lined pattern that is trendy again this season. This autumn, you can stand out with a different way of wearing plaid. Of course, it’s okay to sling on a flannel and call it a day, but if you are looking for a more uncommon way to rock it, try looking for a plaid coat. A blazer, trench coat or jacket with the plaid design paired with a plain shirt and simple shoes will create a sophisticated look while still channeling that classic fall motif.
Lastly, we have the graphic T-shirt. Perfect for any time of the year with added accessories, a T-shirt is a sure choice for a go-to autumn ensemble. There is a world of possibilities that come with wearing a self-expressing T-shirt–there is no way to really go wrong. A true fall look has to have some sort of jacket, especially a jean jacket. Pick out the graphic tee that suits you and overlay it with a jean jacket of any color. Any type of pants will work, but jeans or leggings will most likely look the best. Some ripped jeans can create a rugged but sleek look that will capture the true fall feel.
With all of these ideas, students at WHHS are already beginning to make the looks their own. Whether it is more forward or casual, the halls of WHHS are filled with cozy, unique fashion statements. No need to dress like a Kardashian though; a comfortable sweater will always do the job of encapsulating the seasonal fashion. Fall in love with your autumn inspirations!
