September is the start of the Fall to Winter seasons. We’re transitioning from warm sunny days to cooler days and chilly nights. Depending on where you are, you may be experiencing the cascading of colorful autumn leaves and downfall of snow. With the change in weather and temperature, it is also time for a wardrobe change.

To help you with the fashion transition, we’re rounding up 6 of the best Fall Winter trends and showing you how you can wear them to stay in style for the coming months. Make room in your closets for these up to date pieces.

1. Top-to-bottom White

Get ready for a fresh start after experiencing lockdowns. What better way than to go all white from head-to-toe? The freshness and cleanliness the color evokes is timely for a post-quarantine debut into society. Make a statement in an all-white ensemble whether it be a full length knitted dress or  in layers. 

Wearing a monochromatic color from head to toe gives an illusion of length. It’s the easiest way to look taller or slimmer instantly. Aside from the optical illusion it gives, white is a neutral color that can be worn with any skin tone and it is easy to accessorize.

3. Color Play

Pink

Pink definitely left an impression on the runway for this season from its muted tones to the bright bubblegum hues. It was femininity in all the volumes, frills and drapes. Pink also symbolizes youth, good health, and playfulness. An ode to the “war” we all fought the last few months perhaps? The blooming color just adds brightness and positivity all around. Make it the main color of your outfit, paired with toned-down pieces like simple sandals or heels and no accessories. Pink is your main show.

Plus, it’s a total attention-getter. If you want to be seen, wear yellow. Try on a dress, a top, or a skirt. Go for a monochromatic look or mix and match with neutrals.
