I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again – fall is the superior season. I mean, fall fashion, am I right? From hot drinks to layering your favourite pieces and staying in on cooler days. What’s there not to love? As you prepare to drag out your fall and winter clothes from hiding, you might be wondering: what is on the radar for fall style trends this year?
Lucky for you, I’ve done the research so you don’t have to. When it comes to your fall and winter arsenal, you want to add timeless pieces that are of excellent quality that can be styled and layered in different ways. The goal is to add staple items to your capsule wardrobe.
So whether you’re looking to purge your closet and start fresh or if you want to refresh and add some new pieces, this post is for you. These items are all classic and far from the “in right now” category. Here are five fall style trends that you might not have considered and should probably add to your list ASAP.
Chunky Cardigans
Something about thick cardigans gives a put-together and classic look all while keeping you warm. They also double up as a great layering piece as the temperature drops.
Cargo Pants
Forget those cargo pants you used to wear as a kid that zipped off the knees into shorts. I’m not talking about army-style cargo pants that your old neighbour would wear with a matching vest to go fishing. Cargo pants have made a comeback and the right pair can be paired really well with sneakers. Swap out sneakers for a pair of heels and a nice top for a night-out look.

Half Zip Sweaters
High necks and warm knits are all the rage in the fall and winter. These will always be timeless wardrobe additions. Half-zip sweaters are a great alternative to turtlenecks, a more contemporary take, if you will. For men and women alike, they can be worn alone or with a shirt underneath at the office.

Gold Jewelry
Statement rings and earrings have the power to take the simplest of outfits from basic to put together. I’m a huge fan of bold/chunky rings and earrings. They are the perfect fall (and year ’round) accessory! Opt for gold for fall to bring some warmth and to be honest, there is something about gold pieces that compliment all skin tones.

Faux Leather
Faux leather is a no-brainer fall staple. I’ve been really loving seeing different styles of faux leather, specifically browns and earth tones. You can’t go wrong with a really good faux leather piece that can add character and edge to an otherwise “safe” look. Not sure where to start with faux leather? Add a pair of great-fitting pants and an oversized shacket.
