Fashion Forward: Fall Trends

With every change in season comes a change in fashion. The fall inspired runways gave us a sneak peek into what will hit the expensive department stores this year, but the LL Scene girls are seasoned professionals when it comes to reproducing looks right off the runway at an affordable price.

Bigger is always better this time of year, but 2015 is getting even bigger and even better. Fashion Week exemplified an Avant Garde feel as the Fall/Winter collections came alive on the runway. That being said, it’s hard to spot a trend off that catwalk that can be worn in everyday life. Insider tip: Designers don’t expect the average American woman to walk out of the house wearing a $10,000 8-pound animal on her back. They produce these styles for the art of fashion in hopes that other designers (affordable designers) will produce a toned down version of their craft.

Check out our picks for the trending fall styles that will take you from the office to the bar and everywhere in between.

A poncho can effortlessly bring a boring everyday outfit from a five to a 10. Ponchos are comfortable, easy and flattering. Of course we’re embracing this fall trend.

This style piggybacks off of the Victorian trend with high, embellished collars. You can pull this look off with choker jewelry or clothing.

The chunky heel proves to be the next unfailing formula of success and femininity in 2015. This is an easy look that can be dressed up or down through flattering counter pieces.

Remember when you would pick out your own outfits as a child just to have your parents immediately make you change because nothing matched? Well, channel your inner kindergartener with this trend because it’s all about mixing prints—think polka dots, floral, contrasting stripes and bright patterns.

The mini skirt is back with a vengeance! It’s not a tight mini skirt—it has more of a flirty, A-line. There wasn’t a runway during Fashion Week that didn’t have an endless stretch of leg. We noticed embellished denim, bright hues, pastels and earthy tones. Not ready to show off your legs yet? Pair your mini with different shades and textures of tights.

Channel your inner queen with a huge fall trend: the Victorian look. This style is all about romantic lace, ruffles and high necklines. Start thinking Halloween a little early because this is the only acceptable time you can wear fishnet stockings without an outrageous costume. You can also pull off the Victorian trend by casting light on your silhouette through sheer fabric and tulle. It’s a sensual, yet passionate look this fall.

Sway right into fall with this popular trend. Colored suede took over the fashion week runways, and it’s about to invade your closet too. Right now, we love burgundy and mustard shades in suede. Sport this look as a dress, or layer and pair it with a contrasting piece.

Happy shopping!
