Classic Fall Fashions


Fall Classic Fashions

The weather is getting cooler. The leaves are changing colors, and there is no doubt that fall has finally arrived.  It’s time to pack away those summer fashions and leap into autumn with the stylish, classic fashions listed below.

*Turtle necks

The turtle neck, which can trace its origin back to the first of the century, is a practical fall classic for both men and women. They can be worn as a shirt, a thin sweater, or even as a mock neck. Turtle neck sweaters are warm and stylish. Both the turtle neck sweater and the turtle neck shirt help to cover the neck and move focus to the wearer’s face. Just be sure when choosing your turtle neck that you choose material that is touchable and not itchy.

*Leather

It’s not quite cold enough to pull out the thick, winter coat just yet.  So, grab a beautiful leather jacket instead. Leather is a classic fashion, and it is not just confined to jackets for the fall season.  Leather can be worn as dresses, skirts, pants, and boots. It can also become a gorgeous fashion accessory when made into a handbag or clutch. Leather is a warm, and it can be worn from fall all the way through early spring. 

*Plaid

Plaids are synonymous with fall and winter weather.  The patterned cloth called tartan is the national fabric of Scotland. However, it is not just material for the Scottish. Plain is worn around the world, and it has become a fall classic.  Plaid comes in 4 distinct types, and it makes the wearer stand out. Whether it is a plaid shirt, skirt, shorts, pants or even shoes, matching it correctly is the key.  It is best to pair plaids with solid fall colors, but don’t be afraid to experiment.

 

*Suede

Another great fall fashion is suede.  Suede, like leather, comes from the skin of animals. It is mainly worn as jackets, vests, handbags, shoes, and boots. The material is soft, comfortable, and classy. Suede comes in different colors and can be mixed with other fall fashions. Just remember that suede is very delicate and should be kept away from water and heat.

*Wool skirts or slacks

Wool skirts and slacks begin to make their appearances in the fall.  Wool is lightweight and versatile.  It is resistant to dirt and doesn’t wrinkle easily which makes it a fashion plus. Wool slacks are especially cute with other fall fashions like a turtleneck sweater or long, sleeve white blouse. 

*Long, sleeve white shirt

A white shirt is always a winner.  It is a classic staple of any wardrobe.  So, don’t forget yours this fall season.  Opt for the long, sleeve version over the short sleeve, and you are all set for autumn weather.

*Tall boots

A pair of tall boots is a fall fashion must.  They go with anything, and they can help you transition some of your summer fashions into the fall season.  They can be worn with miniskirts and tights or with knee-length trousers.  For a bold look, you can wear this fall classic with a pair of plaid shorts.

Autumn is a time of change and transition.  The weather is changing and so should your wardrobe. Pack those hot weather fashions away and slip into the fall classics listed above.
