Be Fashion-Forward This Fall

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

Finally after months of hot summer weather, we can stash away the sandals and start the fall season! Besides the comfortable temperature and changing color of the leaves, my favorite part of autumn has to be the wide variety of fashion and new styles. This fall has so many different styles that it is almost impossible not to find something you’ll love! Fashion week styles ranged from cozy, chic sweaters to fierce crimson gowns. If you did not keep up with fashion week in March for the hottest trends of this fall, that’s ok. Her Campus Mizzou has compiled the hottest and most-seen runway pieces along with some more affordable pieces you can purchase online or at your local shops.
