Ladies, we are now getting into the middle of the fall season and you know what that means? Fall Fashion! This is the exciting time where you have the opportunity to take all if your summer clothes and put the far in the back of your closet to make room for your cute fall clothes. While out there looking for some new pieces for your wardrobe you might be a little overwhelmed. So I have put together five essential items for this fall season.  

  1. Leggings

Leggings are quickly becoming a favorite trend among college women. They can provide a fun color or print that you would probably not wear otherwise. Also, they go fantastic with a pair of fall or winter boots! Some leggings even come with a fleece inside lining that gives you some extra added warmth in this chilly weather. There are leggings that have a texture to them making it look knitted, or you can opt for a smooth color.  I like to pair up my leggings Wearing leggings can give you a fun alternative to sporting the same pair of jeans all season.  

  1. Scarves

Scarves are such a fun way to spice up your fall wardrobe. If you are planning on wearing lots of solid colors a scarf easily gives you a fun print to work with. This accessory is both stylish and functional. A nice scarf will warm up will warm up your neck in no time. A good tip is to try and match the scarf with at least one of the colors already in your outfit. This can pull the outfit together seamlessly with little effort. Online you can find many different ways to tie a scarf which can really open the door to many possibilities. This can ensure that you can make many different outfit looks for just one accessory.

  1. Boots

I have officially put riding boots on my Christmas list. Girls all around campus have been wearing them now that the weather is a bit colder. They go perfectly with a nice pair of skinny jeans if you tuck them in. You can purchase these boots in many different colors which can greatly enlarge the number of potential outfits you can wear with the boots. Also, if it’s not too cold, pairing these boots up with a cute dress and high socks would look amazing. Most importantly, they keep your toes warm.

  1. Coats

There are so many different styles when it comes to cute coats. A tip when buying a coat is to look for one that has shape to it. Having a cinched in waist can give you a beautiful shape without actually having to show off your body. You can really show off your personality through the use of an excellent coat. Whether you like your coats plain or with buttons and bows, there is a beautiful coat for everyone.

  1. Beanies

For a classic fall look a beanie is a good way to go. The fitted types of beanies really help keep the warmth close to your head while serving as a cute accessory. When warmth isn’t your first priority, slouchy beanies are always fabulous. No matter which style you choose, beanies in general give anyone a bold sense of style.
