3 Fall Trends That Are Lighting Up, 2 That Are Going Strong, and One That's Out

With fall outfits already in heavy rotation throughout a lot of the country and the world, there’s no better time than now to get a sense of the current and upcoming trends. To do this, you can always start by seeing what’s popping up in street style shots, Instagram feeds, and the new-arrivals section of your favorite stores. From there, you start to get a clearer picture of the fashion trends that are newly sparked, which are still hanging on from last season, and which are losing (or have already lost) traction. Either way, you can rest easy knowing you can always turn to our editors for insider tips on what to look out for.
This season, I have gotten a great glimpse at the market, which I am happy to share below. Think cool outerwear, fresh denim, and standout shoe styles. I do want to preface my breakdown by recommending that regardless of the trend cycle, it’s important to remain true to your personal style and wear the trends that uplift your spirits the most. Ahead, peruse three fall trends that are lighting up, two that are still going strong, plus one that is out (for now) and what to get instead.
3 Fall Trends That Are Lighting Up
From street style to the runways, bomber jackets are proving to be one of the It outerwear pieces of the season.
The "ugly" shoe trend continues, and this year, the clog is top of the list. Thankfully, there is an option for just about every personal style.
Good luck finding your size. These are the most popular clogs of the year.
The super-baggy jeans of the late '90s have gotten an incredibly stylish update. Go casual with a basic T-shirt or dress up a pair with a statement top.
This extra-baggy pair is a great way to go all-out with the trend.
2 Fall Trends That Are Going Strong
I'll admit, striped sweaters are always in style, but this season, it's all about an oversized fit along with wide sleeves.
When it comes to oversize striped sweaters, Totême is what started it all.
This edgy shoe trend is still top of mind even after having quite the visiblity last year. From boots to loafers, it's hard to pick just one style.
I love a knee-high option at the moment. I love to wear them with leggings and a chunky sweater.
1 Fall Trend That Is Out (Plus What to Get Instead)
Yes, sandals for fall are 100% a thing. Wear these chic options with jeans or trousers and a cool sweater.
This slip-on style is super cool.
