Sustainable Fashion Trend Choices For 2023
This season as I previewed the fashion trends of the NYC, Paris, and London I realized I began instead of making a list of things to purchasing I instead began, to say out loud: “What do I already own?” taking my phone upstairs with me as I peered through my very abundant closet (My father would tell you I have enough clothes to clothe all of Africa, and still have some leftover for myself haha). Soon I began checking off items on the 2023 Fall Fashion Trends list I had already in my possession. So here our my top 10 trends I will be investing sustainably because; I already own them.
Leather Coat: I have a distressed vintage moto leather jacket and since distressed leather jackets are on trend right now I can check it off my list.
Oversized Buttons: This item, is a classic must-have for any basic wardrobe and obviously has we get into the colder months we are planning on tube tops forever. I’d say invest in at least three-four of them to have for any occasion or event.
Midi-Skirt: This season of fall there is a definite effort in the more feminine. Skirts in my opinion are a must have in any closet whether you are vintage or sporty its an easy outfit to put together going from day to night.
A tailored Vest: This is a recent add to the Fashion world since summer 2023, we now dare to wear the vest as a shirt on its own paired with a third piece item such as a denim jacket, or blazer whether to dress it up or down.
Mary Janes: These shoes have made a comeback yet again, they were popular during spring 2023 and with the weather turning cooler I do believe we will see more footwear become close-toed.
Straight-leg denim: This is a tried and true that doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon. Always good with owning denim having at least three pairs in multiple different washes so that you can play around with dressing-up or down your outfit depending on location, and event.
Loafers: We are seeing yet again another classic footwear item resurge out of its dusty box. Loafers again are a classic that should genuinely be a staple in anyone’s closet even it’s just one pair……I own three pairs haha.
Mock-turtleneck top: These are a MUST HAVE!!! I have about five three of which are tank-top style for easy layering opportunities without overheating myself. This is also a perfect top to get in 3/4 sleeve length makes the top slightly cute-elegant by dressing a pair of overalls, or helping keep that midi-skirt look a little more casual for that brunch date.
Trench Coat: Again another classic who will never die. This coat is meant to add that polished finish to anyone going out on the town.
Fitted Blazer: Last but certainly never least, a fitted blazer. This fall season just seems to scream back to classic basics not designer is trying to reinvent the wheel in fact it has seemed they are all trying to get back to the classic basics that made fashion iconic and memorable. I’d say if you’re going to own blazers having at 3-4 is a necessary must. 1) fitted black blazer 2) oversized khaki or grey blazer (it always comes back into play). 3) plaid blazer (usually a grey would be wise). 4) one colorful one of your choice! I usually lean towards, red pink, or blue.
At 31 yrs old I am trying to turn my closet less into a shopping channel fantasy and more into an investment into myself! I hope this helps anyone who is trying to decide which trends that want to invest in this falls season maybe, go look through your closet and see if you already have it!
