It’s officially fall! Yay! We have also been enjoying foggy mornings and cooler days. Love this! It finally feels like fall, and it is fall!

As we head through fashion month, we are seeing what’s in store for us when the spring season hits early next year. The overall take-aways so far include color mixing, volume, and texture. It seems the move away from minimalism isn’t jumping right into maximalism; instead, it is easing into it. So, what to expect as we invest in the current season? Let’s dive in.

As you continue to invest in your fall wardrobe, think neutrals, timeless style and solid colors. The spring season mixes neutrals with color, as well as color on color; but not loud prints. So, you can continue wearing solids; just mix them up a little bit more. The overall vibe is still free of logos, so continue to shop for quality at a reasonable price as opposed to logos. Plus, higher prices don’t equate to quality as they once did twenty plus years ago. Price now equates to brand name while quality can be found at a fraction of the price.

Spring will also bring us more re-vamps of classic IT bags. The Balenciaga City bag, Fendi Baguette, Proenza Schouler PS1, and more. So, if you own a former IT bag, pull it out from the back of the closet and wear it now! If you missed it the first time around, wait for the new releases as they roll onto store shelves now, and well into the spring season. The city bag is releasing more colors too, a nod to its heyday when collecting colors was hotter than hot. That hobby is making a comeback!

Which brings me to, colorful handbags! The spring season will bring back fun colors on handbags. So, bring out your bright bags from past seasons and start rocking them again. Also, look forward to investing in your favorite color or colors this spring season; just make sure they are logo-free.

Pink nail polish, soft fabrics, and timeless handbags are all hot for fall; and can always withstand the test of time. Love that!

As we put together our understated outfits for the fall season, the runways in New York have been pushing the current flow of fashion by giving us bold colors, volume, and sparkle. What did we see in line with our current taste? The continuation of the anonymous handbag, more former IT bags reincarnated, solid colors not patterns, barely-there shoes (we saw a lot of bare feet), and soft fabrics. What does this mean for our current closets? Well, it’s good news!

This means we can keep our current style in spring 2027 and just add color! There might be a few more puffy sleeves and voluminous skirts on the market, but overall, we can add to our wardrobes with pops of colors, and color mixing. Our neutral pieces we have invested in can easily be mixed into the new, colorful look. You can check out my post about the upcoming spring 2027 color trends here.

That being said, let’s move back into the fall season. As we head towards cooler temperatures, continue to invest in soft fabrics, pink nail polish, and handbags which exude quality not logos. Love this!

It’s after Labor Day, which means we can claim it’s fall! Despite the fact that fall officially starts on September 22, but I digress. . .

It’s time to load up on soft fabrics, autumn hues, and pink nail polish as we head into the fall season. Suede, cashmere, satin, and more are hot for fall. So, shop your closet first, then fill in with some fall shopping!

You might remember me raving about these suede high heels. They have arch support and I can walk for miles and stand for hours in them. Well, I loved them so much I got the boots! These boots offer arch support and are equally comfortable. They are so easy to walk in, plus, they are perfect for fall! These boots are fabulous with both casual outfits and office attire. I love them with my trousers. They are perfect!

Also, have you noticed people are wearing scarves again? Pull out your scarves from last seasons and start rocking them! You can wear them any way you want. As a neckerchief, a belt, loose around the neck, anything goes! Love that!
