Fall calls for the cutest, effortless looks! Currently, I am loving these fun, high-waisted, tie-belt olive paper-bag pants and they totally inspired this post! Today, I wanted to share some tips with you for how you can pull together easy, effortless fall looks instantly.
1. Add classic or trendy neutral bottoms to your closet.
Throwing on a fun pair of pants or a cute skirt, rather than your every day basic, instantly makes an outfit look so much more put-together. Whether it is a cute pair of denim or a pretty suede skirt, you are taking your outfit to the next level by adding in another cute layer. But keep it neutral! By keeping your bottoms neutral, you will find so many more combinations in your closet. On my wishlist is a cute pair of black faux suede leggings that I can pair with all of my favorite sweaters! The suede adds a bit of texture and interest but the neutral color makes it easy to pair with anything.
2. Stick with colors and tones you love.
I used to feel like I needed to create the whole rainbow of tops in my closet. I had the mindset of, “I have five pink tops – I can’t get another.” But now, I have definitely changed that way of thinking. I think it is more important to just buy the things you love rather than try to cover the whole color spectrum, and switching to this mentality has made my closet so much more adjustable. I LOVE greens, light blues, blushes, mauves, and greys. By sticking to these tones in various shapes and sizes, and by buying trendy yet neutral bottoms like I mentioned above, I can create SO many combinations in my closet. So don’t feel like you can’t buy another pink top – if that’s what you love, you TOTALLY can!
3. Build in trends with accessories.
Rather than buying really bold tops or bottoms, I like to stick with adding pops of trendy patterns or colors through my accessories. For example, I am LOVING the leopard trend, but too much of a good thing is not so great… So sticking with a cute scarf or a pair of loafers helps tone down the boldness and adds to the possibility of combinations!
