As a fashion writer, I have sensitively adapted to every style trend. I spend my workdays poring over department store websites, rewatching fashion week schedules, and even people-watching in my hometown of New York to see what the coolest people are wearing. One thing’s for sure this season: People are having more fun experimenting with bright colors and unique textures.
Rather than sticking to soft fall palettes and simple designs, the styles I’m seeing are looking big and bold, and these four trends are all ones to watch. I’m talking about eye-catching ballet flats that easily add color to your outfits. I’ve also noticed a rise in argyle sweaters, which add a vintage, colorful touch to simple get-ups. Satin trousers are also making the rounds with their soft, textured look. What about the basics? They also get an upgrade. Boat-neck tops are quickly replacing boring crew-neck shirts, which is why they’re everywhere.
These trends are easy to incorporate into your wardrobe, and I’ve made it even easier for you by finding these author-approved picks. Read on (and shop) to feel like the most stylish person this fall.
Top 4 Fall Fashion Trends Worth Buying
Boat Neck Shirts
1. My favorite: Boat-neck shirts have a distinctly Parisian flair, especially when they’re form-fitting, like this merino wool-blend tee.
2. It’s All in the Sleeves: Small details can transform a shirt from ordinary to stylish! On this bateau neck pick case, tasteful bell sleeves add the perfect amount of action.
3. Cold Shoulder: Stay cozy this fall with an off-the-shoulder sweater that drapes down one side for an effortless, asymmetrical look.
4. Child’s play: You’ve probably heard of the wrap dress, but what about a wrap shirt? This figure-flattering top is an easy upgrade from your standard tee.
5. Very Romantic: Black lace and autumn go hand in hand. This flounce-sleeved bateau neck top has a slightly sexy vibe that will make you reserve it for date night.
Argentinian Patterned Sweaters
6. Argyle Updated: Do you think this model best suits grandpa? Let me convince you otherwise. An argyle print gets a modern look with this quarter-zip fleece top that’s as comfortable as it is fashionable.
7. Understated Pattern: I thought the diamond pattern was a loud, in-your-face style. . . until my eyes landed on this minimalist toned sweater. If you’re an avid argyle hater, this chunky knit selection will convert you.
8. Hardworking: Sweater vests may have a stylish reputation, but this cropped argyle crew sweater has a more polished and fun, trendy vibe.
9. Cozy Cardigan: Mini cardigans are what all the cool girls are wearing this fall. Create your own style with this soft Madewell selection; The argyle print gives it more personality than popular solid-colored options.
10. Sweater Dress: For a one-off look that looks incredible with chunky loafers (a fall staple), this mini argyle sweater dress is all you need. This pick is not only super fashionable, but will also keep you warm!
Satin Trousers
11. Party Pants: Jeans? I don’t know them. I’ve been wearing just these wide-leg satin trousers all season long. They’re incredibly comfortable thanks to the elastic waistband, and the beautiful sheen shines in the light.
12. Textured and Rocking: I had always reserved palazzo trousers for summer until I saw this pleated satin style that completely revamped my fall wardrobe.
13. Plenty of Options: I love what Abercrombie & Fitch has to offer We Options — these fan-favorite satin pants come in 12 color options. The only problem? I want it all. It’s a good thing they’re on sale!
14. The Real Deal: Real silk pants under $100? It sounds too good to be true, but Quince has created the most luxurious drawstring bottoms. Bonus: They can be thrown in the wash.
15. Modern Elegance: Structured satin trousers are extremely versatile. Just look at this couple; They can easily be worn for business meetings or fun nights out on the town.
Colorful Ballet Flats
16. Dotted Dreams: Add some color to your fall wardrobe with these sunny polka dot flats. You won’t be able to stop yourself from smiling every time you look down!
17. Tweed, Please: Between their bright pink color and textured edges, these ballet flats are a statement maker. We also love that they easily fold in half to fit in your bag.
18. Sporty Spice: A mix of ballet flats and sneakers, these neon Puma flats are perfect for those who walk everywhere. No bubbles here!
19. Hot: Red shoes are always a good idea. These dark red leather ballerinas look extra elegant with polished metal embellishments on the strap.
20. Walk on the Wild Side: I’ve seen snake print boots, but snake print flats are a whole new wheelhouse. These will add a cool girl vibe to your outfit in pine green or black.
