Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe

Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe

Good morning, Pretty Ladies,

Need a little wardrobe refresh for fall?

If you want to refresh your fall wardrobe, I’ve got some top picks that will keep you looking stylish all season long without breaking the bank! Something about the change of season makes you want to add a few new pieces to your wardrobe. 

Today, I am sharing a few essential items you could add to your Fall wardrobe that work now for a tremendous summer-to-fall transition and that you’ll be able to style all through the Fall season. I always say, “A great and affordable way to stay current” is adding on-trend accessories to your wardrobe each season. 

Accessories finish off the outfit while also changing its look. Have you ever noticed how you can change a basic outfit just by styling it with your accessories?

My girlfriends Cindy, Suzane, and Dawn are joining me today to share FALL for our monthly blog hop. I’ve linked them below, and you want to see what they’re sharing today, as I know it will be amazing.

Adding a few essential accessories to your wardrobe

On-trend Fall Accessories 

Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe


Belts

Belts have been an accessory trend, from designer to Amazon finds, for the last few years. This fall, you’ll see even more, from thin to wide. Belts add interest, flatter your figure, draw attention to your waist, and add texture to your outfit.

Belts are for every style, whether you’re a quiet Luxury classic dresser, a girl who wears mostly work wear, jeans, a tee shirt, a dresser, or that country gal. Several cute belts are on trend this season in every shape, thickness, and style. 

Here are a couple I love and a couple I’ve styled.

Shop Belts Below:

Fall Trends To Refresh Your Wardrobe

Chunky earring 

The 80s-style chunky gold workwear earrings started making a comeback last year, and they’re making an even bigger statement this year. 

I picked up this designer-inspired pair at the end of 22 and have been wearing them weekly ever since. I love the classic feel, yet they’re just the perfect size to wear casually with jeans and a tee, great for work wear, and great with dresses. These aren’t heavy, and the quality is fantastic for $12-14, compared to the $890-1400 designer look-alikes. 

Here are a few more affordable, on-trend, chunky earrings to refresh your wardrobe.

Bangle Bracelets

I’ve always been a bangle bracelet girl. I love a good arm party or arm candy stack, and bangles are a great way to add texture, color, and interest to any look for any season. 

However, we are seeing them coming in strong for Fall. A great stack I’ve owned for years is my BudhaGirl all-weather bangles. I’ve enjoyed these waterproof bangles because they’re light and can be worn underwater. They also take all the guesswork out of creating a stack. You can purchase the 3/5/7/9 stack bundles. 

I am a “more” kind of gal, and I adore you. Mix these bangles with your other favorite arm party bangles and bracelets. 

Here’s the Budha girl bangles I own:

I’ve created a few bracelet stacks that would be perfect for the summer-fall transition and would significantly refresh your wardrobe.

Shop the Leopard Dress and Bangles HERE

Fall Necklace trend

Pendant necklaces are making a comeback. I love a suitable statement pendant. They add a longer line to your outfit, giving the illusion of length, so if you need a little height or a slimming effect, a pendant necklace does that. 

I love necklace stacks, and it’s okay if you do, too. There are still a variety of ways to style them.

Pearls and Chunky bold gold pieces are also on trend and a great way to refresh your wardrobe.

Outfit Details On Trend For Spring

Lady’s Jackets came on the scene for Fall and Winter last year, and we see them in huge numbers this year. Ranging in prices from Amazon finds to Luxury, these cute pieces are great for dressing up jeans and a tee or perfect with slacks and pencil skirts for Fall.

Shoes

Ladylike shoes bring a touch of unexpected fancy-femme to fall’s hot denim silhouettes.

Cap-toe shoes, ballet flats, Mary Janes, pointed-toe shoes, classic loafers, and feminine details like a kitten heel with embellishments and buckle detail are some of the shoes we will see this fall. Shoes are a great way to update your look and can be affordable. Red is hot for shoes, and leopard print is some of the shoes we will see this fall.

Fall color trends

Adding Trending colors

Color trends are easy to incorporate and a great way to update your wardrobe.  

Shades of green, with olive green coming in on top. There is a lot of brown. Red is still popular, but plum/Wine and Terracotta/ Pumpkin are coming in strong.

As I’ve shared before, Something about the change of season makes you want to add a few new pieces to your wardrobe. Adding color trends is an easy way you can incorporate a trend without being too “trendy” if you like me and have more of a chic, classic style and like to add a pop of whimsy or something that makes a statement. Color is a great way to incorporate something new. Whether it’s the latest accessories, shoes, a bag, or a new arrival of clothing, a trending Color can easily update some of your classic pieces. 

Olive Green:

Olive green evokes space, wisdom, and compassion for humanity. It is also associated with harmony, diplomacy, and self-love.… Olive green represents the traditional color of peace.

This is a great color that pairs well with all the shades of fall; it looks preppy with navy and Chic & casual with denim.

Shades of Red:

Red is a powerful color and super fun to incorporate into your wardrobe. Everyone has a shade of red that works with their skin tone, blue or orange tones. Find the one that works for you. 

I am a blue-tone red girl. Last year, I started adding red pops with my accessories: a great bag, fun bow flats, a pair of red tennis shoes, a red belt, and even a red cashmere sweater and blazer. And I must say they were some of my favorite pieces, which I’ve worn repeatedly. 

They added that pop, yet worked with my classic workwear, dressed up a button-up and jeans to accessorize my summer style.

Terracotta, or I Like to call it, Pumpkin.

Pumpkin is a color I love in the fall, and it pairs very well with Leopard and denim. It’s a fun color for the season but can be tricky for some skin tones to wear. Incorporating this color into your wardrobe is a great way; if it does not look great, try it with accessories or a fun pair of pants or jeans. This color is great with cream, brown, and olive green shades.

Leopard

Leopard is an all-time favorite and, in my eyes, a classic pattern that is also neutral. Whether you want to add a pop to your accessories or wear it from head to toe, leopard is a must this year.

Staple colors:

The staple colors, like shades of green, camel, beige, etc., are always favorites during fall. You know I am a big fan of ivory/cream and could wear it daily. In the fall, it pairs well with everything.

Denim:

Denim is always going to be a fall staple. Last year, we saw denim on Denim looks in a strong way, and that will continue this year, as will more denim dresses, all styles of denim jeans and pants, and a variety of denim jackets in all shapes and styles. 

3 Trendy Dresses from Target Perfect for Fall Transition

Denim dresses in every style and lengths are a must this season

Adding a new pair of denim or two to your wardrobe isn’t wrong. Here are a few of my picks.
