When it comes to autumn and winter fashion trends, it's important to keep a balance between form and function. These upcoming trends for the coming autumn-winter (2015) fashion season manage to do both, keeping you fabulously warm while staying on top of the latest fads.
Oversized Fashion
Remember the oversized fashion craze from 2012-2013? It's back in style for 2015! And best of all, it's comfortable—think a version of your favorite baggy sweatpants or jacket that actually looks decent to go out in. Mix a coat or skirt that's a size or two bigger than you usually wear with normal-fitting clothes to avoid getting totally lost in the fabric; if necessary, use a belt at the waist.
Tartan Patterns
Bring out your inner Scot with the upsurge in popularity of tartan patterns for Autumn/Winter 2015. Stay extra warm with traditional wool tartans, or use lighter fabrics under an aforementioned oversized coat. Whether you want to represent a particular clan or just enjoy your favorite colors in a bold geometric pattern, you're sure to discover a few good tartan patterns to love this season.
Lovely Layers
One of the best things about dressing for colder weather is making new fashion statements by combining a variety of things in your wardrobe. Stick with simple leggings and collared shirts under dresses or skirts and sweaters for professional occasions, or combine other hot trends (like knitted dresses and a tartan coat) for a bold personalized look. Add a scarf on extra cold days!
Knitted Dresses
Both warm and attractive, knitted dresses are always an autumn favorite. Traditional tans and browns will make the most of the intricate stitch patterns available in knits—or you can go with brighter colours and enjoy the extra softness of the thick, cushy fabric. If you'd rather be wearing trousers, combine them with a minidress or long, comfortable top to keep the comfort that knits provide.
Bright Colours
While the classic golds, maroons, and browns have their place, don't be afraid to brighten up your day with a splash of color. Whether this comes from a brilliant-hued clutch or one of the oversized coats we've been hearing so much about, you can't go wrong with being a little bold. Why confine yourself to looking like the trees outside when you can bring a little spring into the season?
Putting It All Together
To stay on top of upcoming fashion trends, use these tips either singly or in combination to get attractive style that really pops. Don't be surprised if you see tartans and knits going on sale soon, and don't be afraid to buy things a size or two up from what you usually wear. In the end, experiment with these trends and discover yer own personal style.
