Fall 2022 trends I am Getting Behind

The crisp in the air of this mid October has told me that FALL IS FINALLY HERE in VA!!! I keep up on the latest trends this season there seem to be so MANY I feel like 2020 created a stock pile of clothes everyone is dying to wear and now we finally can go to brunches, pumpkin patches, and wineries so we are ready to show them off. Now being a plus-size I am all for wearing what you want however, I want them to be flattering too so these are my top ten trends I will be using this fall not to mention as much as I love to shop I also like being able to use what I already have so I chose these trends also because, I know I have some of them in my closet!

  1. Oversized sweaters: It’s cozy season I’m all for layers perfect for the farmers market, shopping trips with the girls, and pumpkin patch shenanigans the event can determine the colors and prints on your sweaters like, stripes for a coffee date, or a logo sweater for a casual shopping trip!

  2. Tailored Blazer: three words, closet, classic, staple! This is a piece every fashion girl should have in their closet! Easily makes a casual pair of jeans and a t-shirt into an outfit you are sure to receive compliments on!

  3. Leather coat: right now the trend is oversized coats however being a short (5’1”) fashion plus-size girl I will have it a little more tailored so that I don’t look stumpy as I like to call it. Again a great classy leather coat is a must-have in the basic closet department! Whether traveling or go to you nearest city it is a piece that can define an outfits aesthetic.

  4. Baseball caps/Dad caps: If I had to admit being obsessed with something…this would be my confession my collection is ever growing! I am all about a great hat I love to wear hats and hats are honestly my friend! These caps are perfect for making outfits seem effortless, and low-key. Best advice keep them simple, keep the color pallet in basic colors that way it’s easy to pair with any outfit!

  5. Loafers: GIRL who knew I’d loves these it is one of the easiest ways to add a pop to any outfit not comfortable with big colors, or print on your pants or shirt? PERFECT wear it on your feet! I love adding color with my shoes it makes my outfit feel complete, and always trendy!

  6. High-Waisted Jeans: I would consider these a great investment for a plus-size girl they help make my well rounded waist a little more cinched, and curvy the cut of the jeans this year seem to be straight with a little more width to them…I love my skinny jeans but I like a classic cut too! My tip for these is quality over quantity.

  7. Ankle Boots: Now this 2022 season they are preferring heeled boots over Chelsea boots now I believe in not spending too much money on having a ton of shoes however boots are one of those items that if they aren’t quality you’ll be purchasing new one within 18 months. If you don’t have a quality pair buy at least two pairs, this way you can have a pair in black and a tan, camel, or brown pair for your outfits.

  8. Vests: Whether tailored or a knit vest this fall is all about it! This is an item I will be investing in this fall season especially a tailored vest, these items are timeless pieces we will see return I guarantee it!

  9. Matching Sweater Sets: This makes me feel very Princess Diaries I LOVE IT!!! My 90’s self loves it I have one set already in soft bubble gum pink! Which is a another trend this fall 2022 pastel colors, instead of more autumn colors this year! This set will also work come February fingers crossed maybe by then I’ll have a cute lunch date haha!

  10. Trench Coats: Another article of clothing I will be investing in whether battling the cool air of London or just needing a great coat for grocery shopping. Owning a trench coat is a must-have! I haven’t owned one before but I love them planning on purchasing one this year! This coat is one of those coat styles that ABSOLUTELY NEVER GOES OUT OF STYLE!!

Fashion is always subjective to change however I continue to believe in seeing what the trends will be and making them your own! No trend will work without confidence so if you’re not confident in what you are wearing you won’t be happy. My favorite saying from one of my favorite stylists is; It’s not a makeover its a make better, you are special and beautiful already fashion is just meant to enhance that!
