Anne Hathaway sports a bright red tee with distressed denim on the streets of New York, which is definitely a color we will be seeing come in different clothing items such as jackets, blouses, v-neck tees, and of course dresses. Bright red dresses will be something to look for in the up-coming award season.
One trend that has been a recurring favorite season over season are leggings. Leggings are

currently still a hot ticket item for your wardrobe and will continue to be as layering for fall is the perfect combination. To mix two trends into one, you can try liquid leggings or leather leggings to get the “leather” rock look as Ashley Olsen has been photographed numerous occasions in. Leather-like leggings dress up an outfit adding an extra “wow” factor and are great for a night out.
Another trend easy to add to your closet is thick belts for accentuating your waist. Wide belts can be worn over blazers, dresses, or longer tunic tops to make your waist the focal point of your outfit. Kim Kardashian did a great job at last season’s New York Fashion week, pairing her wide black belt with a structured white blazer.

When adding a belt, make sure the design or color doesn’t clash with the rest of your attire and matches at least one element of something else you are wearing.
Personally, fur can be difficult to wear depending upon which part of the country you live in, but more importantly you should go with faux fur. Faux fur can look just as dashing for fall and make the same

statement. Great designs can be found at Juicy Couture, Nordstroms, and TopShop to match whatever your style is. Sarah Jessica Parker has paired her over-sized fur jacket with leather leggings making it an all over fall trend look.
For cooler days, you must grab a pair of thigh high boots. Seen all over the runways, these boots are sexy, modern, and can keep you warm. Make sure you pair them with form-fitting jeans or leggings so that you don’t overwhelm the boot with stuffed material. You can also wear them with dresses and patterned stockings.

The best part is they come with a stiletto heel as seen on Carrie Underwood and Kate Moss or flat soles as Hilary Duff wears.
If you can only choose one fall fashion trend, the item to pick would be a perfect fitting boyfriend jacket. The boyfriend jacket or boyfriend blazer is very versatile for daytime, business meetings, casual outings paired with denim, or nighttime paired with leather leggings. The boyfriend blazer adds structure to your shoulders creating a nice v-cut
