As Autumn is settling in, I thought it might be fun to talk about some of the season’s most popular fashion trends. Of course trends range from extreme to very conservative, but I look for trends that apply to the common person more so than the extreme fashionista.
Overall, the trends are leading back to the 80’s…the bold styles, the big and chunky accessories, but only as a bit of a pop so choose your accessories carefully. Color is the new neutral. Not too much brown and black…the closest thing you’ll get to neutral is gray this season. Gray is very big this season. But the hot colors to use to make your outfits pop are burgundy, berry, dark green, and dark blue.
Lines are clean and simple. Proportions are important. Balance full tops with tight bottoms and vice-versa. And yes…it looks like those pesky shoulder pads are on their way back in. Find your classic pieces and then buy a few trendy modern pieces to update your wardrobe and make your look more modern.
There is a show called Mirror/Mirror on the Live Well Network that does a good job of covering trends for the everyday person. Here are two segments that I think you’ll enjoy:
