Incorporating trends into everyday wear is never easy at the start of the season. Heck, even fashion diehards need some time to figure out how to seamlessly work them into their everyday wear without straying too far away from their personal style preferences. To lend a hand this fall, we’ve come up with a little guide on how to effortlessly incorporate some of 2015’s top fall trends into your wardrobe – if you haven’t already.
Aritzia Babaton Devries Colla, $80
FUR
We need not to mention that fur is one of the biggest trends this season. It is no doubt the perennial fall fave. While a full-on (faux) fur coat may not be everybody’s cup of tea, add a fur collar or scarf to your outerwear for instant elegance.
Zara Shirt with Tie-Up Neckline, $46
STATEMENT NECKS
Necks are having a moment this season. Whether it was achieved via a choker à la Versace or a thin scarf at Saint Laurent, the focus was no doubt between the head and shoulders. If you’re having trouble finding the right accessory to match your outfit, why not hit two birds with one stone with a tie-bow blouse? Easy-peasy.
Anthropologie Legion Wool Cape, $598
CAPES
Blanket scarves are so last season. This fall, capes take centre stage. For those chilly days where a scarf is not enough and a coat is too much, opt for this in-between piece. Blair Waldorf would approve.
Joe Fresh Print Silk Top $48
TAPESTRY
It seems like designers looked to rugs and tapestries from aristocrats’ living rooms as inspo for fall 2015. While channelling a couch and/or a rug may not sound like the most stylish place to start building a look, working in a rich print simply via a shirt (like this Joe Fresh version) into your everyday fall wardrobe may be the opulence it needed to take your from #basic to trendsetter.
Topshop Super High-Waisted Checked Skirt $63
GEEK CHIC
Geek and chic together may sound like an oxymoron, but if the fall 2015 collections said anything (read: Miu Miu and Gucci) it’s that these two words can co-exist in the same sentence/outfit. Opt for bold colours and big plaid prints for a head-turning statement rather remnants of your school uniform.
