Accessories This Season We Are Obsessed with
Doc Martins, biker jackets with oversized sleeves, and chokers are all things you can remember from the 90s. Out of the 90s sometimes-questionable trends, we’re glad the collar is making a modern comeback. Kendall Jenner, Rihanna, and Gigi Hadid have all been seen wearing this as the most beautiful accessory. You can choose from the classic black choker or wear a metallic collar.
The latest Falls shoe trends will surely bring a smile to your face. For a more stylish shoe, the block heel will replace the stiletto. This is a bolder style that will complement your shearling or military jacket. We are captivated by the new season’s shoes, which have seen brands like Tommy Hilfiger and Coach release metallic, sparkly, and gold heels. You will be both comfortable and stylish. Michael Kors Leopard print block boots, are a great option if you like prints.
Slingback shoes are the perfect choice if you prefer a more feminine style and take inspiration from French-girl fashion. This chic, feminine look is a favorite of Chanel. Their grey tweed version is our favorite. You can either dress it down with distressed jeans or up with your favorite little black gown.
- For an excellent, eclectic look, layer chockers. For a beautiful, eclectic look, pair them with a plunging neckline or an off-the-shoulder top.
- For date night, make a statement by pairing an embellished or metallic choker with a strapless black dress with sparkly stilettos and a metallic blazer.
- Slingback shoes are great for work because they are chic and comfortable. Wear them with grey or black pants and a turtleneck sweater to give that French je ne sais quoi look.
- Block heels are one of the most versatile types of shoes. Block booties are a versatile style. This fall, choose a different style, such as velvet, sparkly, or shearling.
What to Wear this Festive Season
This season velvet is being used in new ways. Get a pair of knee-high velvet boots to take it up a notch. Anna Sui’s perfect pair of red boots are a great choice. Instead of wearing a traditional velvet blazer, be bold with your style.
Sequins are fabulous for the festive season. Take inspiration from Tory Burch’s bold silver pantsuit and wear a sparkly sequin ensemble. You don’t have to look like a disco ball if you are afraid of appearing too flashy. A sequin blazer can be worn over your dress or shiny heels like the ones Tommy Hilfiger wore. Glossy make-up was the rage this season. Models wore make-up on the runways at Chanel, Saint Laurent, and Marc Jacobs.
- Sparkly make-up was everywhere this season, so be bold and shine some sparkle in your hair, lips, or eyebrows this holiday season
- For your office party, pair your shiny heels with a bodycon dress and metallic choker.
- A metallic blazer can be worn with jeans and sneakers for a casual look.
Guide to This Fall-Off-Duty Style
Plaid has a new look for fall. Think less Scottish kilt, more office chic. Plaid has been seen on the runways by Jason Wu, Sophie Theallet, and Carolina Herrera. It can be used to create unique shapes and cut. A plaid dress can be paired with patent shoes or with plaid trousers and leather boots. A way to give your plaid dress, or shiny blazer, a masculine edge is to have a more extended waist. Pair a duster or long sweater with heels and high-waisted jeans to prevent you from getting soaked in the fabric.
Sportswear isn’t going anywhere. The Yeezy Season 4 models wore long hoodies and sportswear, ranging from crop tops to leggings. For a sexy-sporty combination, pair your hoody this fall with knee-high boots.
- Sneakers are here for the long term. Opt for leather pants and a long-line blazer for a sporty day look.
- Wear knee-high boots and a beige sweatshirt for a night out with the girls.
- Grey plaid trousers will make a good impression, but you can keep it casual by pairing them with a sweater and patent flats.
