how to make fall fashion staples stand out

Every season has those must-have fashion items. Those staples that appear year after year after year. In winter, there are always stylish boots and sparkling sweaters. In spring, pastels and floral prints are a must. In summer, denim shorts and tank tops never look out of place. Now that fall is officially here? It is time to welcome in all of those familiar seasonal pieces. This year, make sure those fall fashion staples stand out for all the right reasons. Not sure how? Breathe easy. Here are some tips and tricks that will elevate your style throughout the autumn season. 


Choose a Chunky Knit Sweater That Has Unique Details. My absolute favourite thing about fall? Sweater weather! There is truly nothing more thrilling than throwing on a cozy sweater and heading out the door into that crisp fall air. If you are a fan of this time of year (and all of the sweaters that come along with it)...be sure to choose a chunky knit sweater that stands out. There are so many different sweater styles to suit a variety of budgets. To elevate this fall fashion staple, look for a design that is a little bit different. For instance, a sweater with exaggerated sleeves (oversized or a little longer than usual), a bold neckline (a slouchy turtleneck or a relaxed boat neck can really mix it up), or distressed details (holes, ripped sections and frayed edges to add a little extra oomph). A little attention to detail can completely transform your autumn wardrobe. 

Add Badges or Pins to Your Plaid. It just wouldn't be fall without a little bit of plaid. Not only is plaid associated with 90s fashion but it is also an integral part of autumn inspired style. Everything from plaid coats to skirts to long-sleeved shirts is fair game once the leaves start to change colours! So how can you make sure this fall fashion staple stands out this year? Add a little something extra. Pins, badges, and even chunky safety pins are a wonderful way to customize your plaid pieces and make them one of a kind. Showcase your personality with ease with just a few add-ons. Chances are, you likely have a few enamel pins or buttons in your home already. Toss them onto your plaid and get ready to wow. Don't have any pins or badges on hand? They can be found for an ultra affordable price online, in the dollar store, or at your nearest mall. 

Look for a Pair of Statement Boots. When in doubt, let your footwear do the talking. There are so many ways to make a statement with your clothes and accessories. Shoes are no exception! This is the time of year when stylish fall boots are pulled out of the closet. Ankle boots, chunky boots, and everything else you can imagine. So allow those pieces to be the focal point of your ensemble. Add on a pair of chunky black boots with pearls and studs or glittery laces. Reach for ankle boots with fringe or an animal print accents. Anything that makes you smile is fair game. So take a look through your closet and see what your options are this season. Can't find exactly what you are looking for? Order a pair of boldly coloured laces or shoe add-ons

Ditch the Basic Trench Coat for Something Bolder. Every fall season, the trench coats are pulled out of the closet without fail. Most commonly, those trench coats are beige, white, grey, or black. Why not mix it up this year? Do something different? When it comes to trench coats, there are so many other possibilities. Choose a soft pink or perhaps a burnt orange. Look for a pattern or even take this opportunity to incorporate a little extra plaid into your day-to-day looks. It doesn't matter what you choose so long as you are open to something that is a little bit out of the box. No more ordinary or basic trenches! This season, look for something that makes sure your outerwear always stands out.

  3. These are good tips! I like colourful knits for winter to add a little extra interest to my outfits! :) I don't have a lot of winter coats though as they are worn so rarely here, winter is such a short time!

    Hope you are having a lovely weekend :) We had a fun day at the playground yesterday.
