5 Unexpected Fall Color Trends

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Illinois State chapter.

Fall brings a lot of great things to all of our lives. Seasonal drinks, fun activities, and, my favorite, great fashion. This means that we can finally go dig out our favorite sweaters and boots and get ready to rock that, “I’m stylish, but still cozy” look.

Maroon and green have definitely been the “hot” colors of fall for the past few years. I know we’re all guilty of having multiple clothing items in one of these two colors. I know I sure am. Boring!

Here are five new colors that will spice up your fall wardrobe. Out with the old, in with the new, as they always say!

1. Sharkskin

Grey tones have always been a go-to, but this deeper one is the perfect neutral.

2. Lush Meadow

  The trendy cousin color to olive green. Great for adding that pop of color to any outfit.

3. Potter’s Clay

This subtle shade of orange is perfect for layering with scarves and cardigans.

4. Dusty Cedar

If you love Rose Gold accessories, then this shade of pink will be your new favorite fall color.

5. Airy Blue

Use this color to tone down an edgier outfit to go for a soft fall look.

What will be your new fall color?
