Women's Fall Fashion

It has become officially cold now that it is already a week into October, and cold weather means its time for fall fashion. Fall is one of my favorite seasons because of the style. Fall brings toned down colors such as maroon, dark green, and brown, it brings cozy fabric to keep you warm from that frigid weather, and it brings sweaters. Lots of sweaters.

Sweaters: The number one thing you will be seeing this fall is sweaters. They are so easy to dress up and dress down. Put with the right necklace or with a collar popped from under and they are automatically a nice outfit for going out, but adding a scarf and they can just as well be great for a slouchy, more casual outfit for snuggling up on some of those colder fall days. 



Plaid: During fall season you're definitely going to see a lot of plaid. Flannel is the perfect transitional layer to keep you warm during those cold days.


Jackets: Fall brings weather that is cold, but still not cold enough to make you bring out your winter coat, that's why light jackets are a great idea. Some popular jackets that work for many different occasions are army, leather, and cargo jackets, and you can always add a cute flannel to your jacket to spice it up.

























Vests: Sometimes when it's not too cold, instead of wearing a jacket you can wear a vest. It is such a versatile piece that is warm, stylish, and comfortable.




Floppy Hat: The floppy hat is making its transition from summer to fall. Wool keeps your head warm, and something about this hat just brightens up every outfit. Pair it with a fur vest, or a green army jacket, the floppy hat goes with almost anything, and don't worry about it going out of season because when summer comes back that floppy hat will be your best friend once again.

Men's Fall Fashion

Hey Everyone,

So, now that we have four people on the suit yourself team, we're going to start writing more regularly. Currently, our plan is to create a post every friday. This month we have: Men's Fall Fashion, Women's Fall Fashion, Halloween Costumes, and Fall Accesories, so let's jump right in!

The easiest thing to talk about when discussing seasonal clothes is color, so let's start with that. A strong basis for fall color would be: brown, burgundy, tan, navy, and grey. However don't be afraid to experiment with your color schemes. Now, on to the main topic. The biggest thing I want to stress about fall is layers. Have you ever heard of Live, Laugh, Love? Well, in fall, it's Live, Laugh, Layer. Let's take a look at some of the layering and clothing options that fall brings.

Jackets: Jackets are great options for those chilly fall days when it's too warm for a full coat, but cold enough that a sweater isn't enough. Some popular options are the cargo and leather jackets. It all depends on your personal style.

Sweaters: Sweaters are a great way to add some variety to your fall outfits. You can wear them almost everyday, and there are so many varieties. Whether thick, thin, formal, or casual, sweaters are always a good choice.

Scarves: A scarf is the only right way to keep your neck warm while making a fashion statement. Not only do they come in different colors, but you can wear them in a variety of ways too. Here is a great website that talks about all those possibilities.

Beanies: This is the era of the slouchy beanie. This accessory is popular in winter too, but match it with a scarf of the same color and you'll be ready to head out into the fall weather. However, I have to emphasize that, like all hats, beanies are not a way to get out of doing your hair! They sit on the back of your head, so show of that perfectly coiffed hair!

Boots: Boots are the perfect footwear for the fall season. Not only are they warm and waterproof, but they're stylish too. Some popular choices are (from left to right): chukka, chelsea, and work (timberland) boots. Again, choose an option that fits your style.
