Top 12 Fall 2016 Trends | Bombers, Military, Oilive, Velvet, Fur, Patchwork, Pins, Chokers
*I wish you guys could see my face while writing this post, I am that excited.*
I am always excited for this season of the year as we hardly get any cold here in Jeddah but this year I am really looking forward to it as I am gonna be in Pakistan. I have been seeing many different trends popping up but I narrowed down mine and have finally started to shop for it.
With all the fashion weeks ended and people already started to transition their looks into fall I have picked my favorites. And while I shop all these and revamp a few of old ones I wanted to share these with you guyz too.
1. Military/olive colors:
This one has to be my favorite color for the season. I have been seeing it every where in pants, jackets, shoes everything. This season is really dominated by all things military style, color and print. I really want to pick a military jacket and I have also seen amazing lace up heels at Bershka.
While shopping I noticed few of great pieces @ Bershka, Pull and Bear, ZARA and New Look.
2. Patch work & Pins:
We all have many pair of jeans a few denim jackets and to be honest I am kinda over them because I have been wearing them since my childhood. But this patch work is going to give a new look to many of our staple pieces while adding that pop of fun to the. I am so excited to do some DIYs with all the patch stickers and pins available in market. A few great were spotted @ Also, Stradivarius & Newlook. Oh Oh, Top shop and Newlook has a great pair of jeans with sequined patch work on them.
3. Velvet:
The fabric of the season is so wonderfully soft that you'll want to touch it constantly. Velvet looks so sexy and luxe on body. But this years its not limited to your clothes as I have spotted many shoe, flats, sneakers, heels to bags, gloves and chokers on runway and street. Already having an obsession with the beautiful colors of it, I have purchased 4 shirts to get them embroidery and looking for my perfect pair of shoe now.
4. Fur:
Designers have already had a love affair with luxe fur stoles but asymmetrical draping style trick makes it different than ever before. But you can carry it how ever you prefer and they have been such a staple for fall wardrobe always. I have already got mine and I cant wait to rock it.
5. Military Trench coat:
Pre fall nautical trends continues strong into fall 2016 with navy/military inspired knee to ankle length coats. I have seen them every where from very formal to the ones with patch works. Pair it with heels or sneakers, this trend is here to never fail your outfit goals.
6. Camo Prints:
Lets just confess, we all have a pair of cargo pants in camo print! but this season its not limited to your pants. Camo skirts, camo shirts, camo jackets are all around the stores. Camo print jackets are having a major moment.
PS: Why have I noticed alot of military/camo stuff? Is it me, because I am getting married to an army man or is it really big?? But regardless I am completely rocking these.
7. Statement Sleeves:
So the off shoulder made it to fall by encouraging us to play with different styles of sleeves like ruffles, bell bottomed, bubble sleeves, balloon style, poofed up and so on. This is going to add just an extra cute detail to out outfits. I have been thinking about Disney princesses ever since I noticed this one.
8. Embellishes Guitar Straps:
I am a bag lover and any detail to my bag is a big hit for me. I have been noticing this from the beginning of the year. It is such a cool trend that you can pull off without trying to hard. You can carry this trend on casual days and it will look great on coats and jackets. Yayyyyy!!!!
9. Choker:
Chokers have been around since long but they made a major come back this year. It doesnt matter if you prefer a thin velvet strap or a big heavy metal ones, just make sure there is a choker on your neck to add a little edge to your outfits. I have seen a really goos ones at Stradivarius with a pack of 5 for 59 SAR.
10. Leather Trench coat:
Looking for a raincoat thats equal parts chick and functional? Look no further than next season's patent leather trench coats. Designers looked into leather to craft coats in sleek silhouettes. These style also varies from your classic trench to street-ready.
11. Bombers:
Bomber jackets were big this season and they have definitely staying in fall. Originally designed for WWII pilots in mid 1950, bomber jackets have transformed from a part military uniform, to a high-street fashion staple. Not only does it look sharp but you can wear it with anything and look fashion shot ready.
This trend is so easy to wear_ pair it with bomber of choice with jeans or chinos and a button-down shirt or throw it on your sweats.
12. Sweats:
For me, sweats are always in and this season I have another reason to rock it more often. We all love sweats because how comfy and cozy are they. Do we need more excuses to wear it? Hell no, We dont even need one but I still gave you one more.
So have you decided yours? I am definitely doing some DIYs and fashion posts. Would you guyz like to see it or read it? Let me know in the comments below.
