While I know we still have a good few weeks left of warm weather dressing, and as someone who loves summer I’m not exactly mad about it, but my mind can’t stop racing with fall fashion ideas. I’m getting so excited about wearing all of my favorite fall go-to staples like great denim and high boots, but this year I am determined to step it up this fall. I’m challenging myself to make this my most stylish fall yet, and with that comes a little purging from my closet and a lot of research on what’s trending for the season. After digging through runway photos, instagram photos and my TikTok For You page I have nailed down 5 trends for fall to help me on my way to my chicest fall of all time. Of course I had to share these trends with you, since when it comes to stylish fall trends, we’re in this together. 

Keep scrolling to see which trends for fall I’m loving for this season and which ones I’m tossing this year. 

Every fall it’s like a switch goes off and everyone starts dressing in muted, neutral tones. Not this fall. This color has been all over the runways for all of 2023 but for fall/winter especially. So it’s safe to say fashion people everywhere are still loving this chic shade of cherry red. From accents of the hue to full head-to-toe monochromatic red outfits you’ll be seeing all of your most stylish friends and it-girls alike embracing red for fall.

2023 is all about looking as rich as possible. Stealth wealth, quiet luxury, whatever you want to call it – it’s basically been the aesthetic of the year. With high-quality, luxury basics as the backbone of the trend. From Totem, Khatie, and The Row (just to name a few) all clogging my instagram feed and the closets of all of the most stylish editors I know, if I was a betting person I would bet that this understated, rich looking vibe is here to stay for all of fall and winter.

As a lover of all things pretty, I couldn’t be happier about the resurgence of the ballet flat. It wasn’t on my bingo card for trending 2023 shoes if I’m being honest, but now I have dove in head first and I’m in love. You can’t go anywhere in New York without seeing a stylish pair of ballet flats, some are even calling it a “flat-shoe fall.”

I have always loved a good suit. Especially in the fall time, not only do you look professional and polished but suit sets are so easy to style and often work great as separates too. I look forward to power dressing every fall, I’m already getting excited thinking of all the suiting opportunities fall 2023 is going to present.

Mark my words, you’re going to be seeing vest tops everywhere fall 2023. They have that “back to school” edge without being too costumey, which I personally love. They pair well with basically anything – trousers, denim, skirts, all of the above. I have a feeling my go-to fall look is going to be a vest top, a great midi skirt, and some sort of chic flat shoe.
