Fall Fashion Items You Won't Want to Be Without

Alexandra Morgan
This year's fall/winter fashion trends offer a lot of variety for creative styling but there are a few essential items you won't want to be without this season no matter what other clothing choices you make.

Please be advised that this is not a shopping guide, it's must-have trend guide. Please take a moment to browse the links provided here, they are intended to give you visuals of this year's fall/winter must-have trends so you can get an idea of what you want before officially shopping.

Plaid

The options here are limitless; you could get a plaid scarf, shirt, purse, jacket, or dress.

Socks (to go with your heels)

That's right, the 80s trend is back for fall/winter after its re-appearance this past spring/summer. If you want to try this ever-present look, go for a thin pair of ankle, calf, or thigh high socks. Though this admittedly is an awkward style, it can be much more comfy and warm than the stocking alternative. See helpful pictures and a detailed description of how to wear this trend here on Fashionising.

Cargo Pants

Along with military shirts and jackets, cargo pants have taken their place as a staple of the season. Cargo pants are a great way to get away from jeans while still maintaining an easily matchable neutral focal point piece on which to build an outfit. Check out 80s Purple's new cargo pants.

Cut Out Clothing

Cut Out clothing is exactly what it sounds like, clothing which has holes strategically and artistically cut into it. Here are a few samples of this style: a chic little black dress and a one shoulder long sleeved top.

Shirtdress

The shirtdress is a timeless and seasonless piece, appropriate for many types of occasions. Thankfully this year shirtdresses can be found in most stores so you shouldn't have a problem finding one that's right for you. Also, keep in mind that shortness doesn't need to be a deal breaker since leggings can be worn underneath. Here are two shirtdresses you can take a peek at to get a feel for this season's style: plaid shirtdress and silk shirtdress.
