Hello, ladies and gentlemen; it is the time we have all been waiting for—it is fall! Full of hot chocolate, sweet treats, and, most importantly, new trends in the world of fall clothes and beauty.
Are you desperately scrolling Pinterest, unsure of what is trending this year? Maybe you are searching your wardrobe, hoping last year’s clothes still work.
I am going to tell you how to be the fall It Girl. Everything on this list is budget-friendly but also stylish, so you do not need to take out a loan to look cute this fall.
Snug Sweaters
Sweaters are a classic wardrobe staple that will never go out of style. Get ready to embrace your inner Rory Gilmore. H&M and Urban Outfitters are the perfect places to get your everyday wearable blanket.
Take your time and avoid the annoying, itchy fabrics lurking on the sale rack! Most stores offer great student discounts for a cozy new jumper at the perfect price. A grey fuzzy button-up is circulating all over TikTok and Instagram. Will this be your pick? Maybe an oversized pop of color is more to your liking.
Nessa Barrett is the queen of fall clothes. Her grunge pop star lookbook often involves an oversized hoodie.
Elf Bronzing Drops
Another part of every fall is the change of weather. Say goodbye to the sun and hello to vibrant orange leaves that give you the perfect crunch every single time. Now, I do not have much to say about the fall other than the tragic loss of my tan. Away goes my golden glowing skin, and a ghostly pale complexation takes its place.
Luckily for you I have found the perfect solution for this. Unlike the drunk elephant bronzing drops, which cost a crazy £34, Elf released a perfect dupe. The bronzing drops give an oil-free base with the perfect golden glory. I can look like a summer goddess but in perfect fall fashion.
Meredith Duxbury broke the internet with her 10 pump foundation method and has perfected makeup. She is the perfect person to find inspiration for fall makeup.
Mini Skirts
Skirts are a popular style all year round, but mini and micro skirts are the hottest thing this year. There is a beautiful collection of styling methods, too, and I am going to tell you all about them.
First, grab yourself an affordable pair of boots. Maybe grab a pair with buckle details or chains for extra style points. Pair boots with a mini skirt and a cute cardigan, and everyone is going to want to copy you.
Second, tights! Tights are boring alone, but when styled and paired right, they are the perfect addition. Fishnets add a bit of decoration to every single outfit. You could wear a completely plain black outfit, but add fishnets, and you are stylish. Fishnets and a mini skirt are a wonderful pairing.
I highly recommend looking up Jordan Lipscombe. Jordan does not stick to one aesthetic, so she taps into all the fashion worlds. Her page is always where I go whenever I am stuck and cannot figure out an outfit.
Jackets
Lastly, jackets may seem boring as they basically just keep you warm, but they are the perfect fall fashion staple. Jackets act as a coverup, so when you wake up late for a lecture or are having a fashion meltdown over a boring outfit, grab a cute jacket, and you still look awesome.
There are so many stylish jackets perfect for every aesthetic so you can never look bad. A classic staple is the Northface puffer. They can be expensive, but often in charity shops or online second hand stores. You could stick to the plain black puffer, but why not try the purple or the red? A pop of colour makes it a lot more interesting.
Leather jackets scream fall. They add warmth without making you sweat too much, and they add the perfect grunge note to all outfits. I like to wear leather jackets with big jeans or a little skirt and cute trainers for a more casual fit. But if you want a less casual look, a leather jacket can be paired with a posher dress and heels.
Office core and smarter outfits are all the rage. That’s why blazers and smart jackets are the perfect fall fashion statement. A cropped, mid-length, or full-length blazer adds the perfect level of sophistication to every outfit. A smart jacket with a tie-up or button detailing is exactly what everyone needs in their wardrobe.
If you need jacket inspiration, check out Madeline Argy on Instagram or TikTok, where she shows her insane style. Madeline is a major inspiration for me personally, as I believe she perfected the smart casual look. Especially with fall clothes.
So there you have it—everything that is trending with the perfect fall clothes for you to wear this season and become the Fall It Girl. I want you to know is that it does not matter if these are not what you like. All that matters is that you are happy and comfortable in what you wear.
