The weather is cooling down, and it´s time to start getting out all those big, cosy sweaters of our closets. As you might already know, I love big, comfy sweaters, and I´m always on the look out for new ones. I make sure to wear them a lot this season. Not only are they cute, and fashionable, but they also let you stay warm all day. ^^
This is my inspiration for fall;

Big knit sweaters and cardigans
My number one way of keeping warm during fall and winter is big knit sweaters. They are so comfertable and looks good at the same time. They are quite flattering if you wanna hide you tummy after eating too much for lunch or just is you wanna look petite and cute, a big sweater is great for these purposes. You can mix and match with patterns, or just go for the plain ones with or without rib knit. I have also started to try and wear some turtlenecks. Turtlenecks can be really great for layering dresses and tops with low or open neck line.
Jeans
Jeans will never go out of fashion, no matter what year or season, they will always make you look good, and be an essential part of your wardrobe. It can be peared with almost anything, and still you can look smashing, just add the right accessories. Go from jackets, to shorts, to pants. At least one pair of something jeans can be good to have. They are awesome for those days when you just don't know what to wear.
Patterned tights
Tights are good if they are thick enough. I wear tight during fall because it's not too cold yet, and they look good under a long sweater. I have a little love/hate relationship with wearing tights together with sweaters because so many are waring tights and short sweaters that doesn't cover the but or anything. It's so widespread and like a uniform, but tights are not enough to cover the but, and they get quite see-through some times... As long as the tights are thick enough and/or the sweater is long enough, I'm totally gonna rock tights this fall! Back to the topic, patterned tights. I've seen nordic print tights on the net, and I really want some. They are so cute, and give a winter feeling to the outfit. The patterns will also spice up a plain sweater or cardigan.
Big hats and scarfs
At least one big hat and a scarf is a must for me once the temperature turns low. It´s an ear saver. I tend to freeze my ears of really easily, so I always wear a hat. They are great accessories too, and can make a plain outfit pop. They are in so many different prints and fabrics for hats and scarfs, that you will find one you like. I tend to go for the wool ones, or at least the thick ones, and I really like the big beanies with and without a big puff at the end.
Boots
Oh how I love to wear boots. They give every outfit a more rocking and smashing look, and makes you look a little less innocent and more rebel looking. Boots are also really warm, but if they are not you can make them. I have some warm, wool soles I put in my shoes if they are not warm. Also wearing wool sock is a good way to keep warm, and it looks cool if you have boots and the wool sock stick out. At least I think that can be kinda cool. I have both boots with and without heals, so I can mix it up if I'm going to school or to a party. Sadly the heal ones make too much of a click clack sound to make me wanna wear them at school.
Skirts
Even though the weather is chilly, we don´t have to freeze our legs of just to wear a skirt. A knit skirt and some either black or fancy patterned pair of stockings will let you keep your warmth and still look cute.
Leather
I think everyone has seen or worn leather during fall. It's a trend that's been around for a long time, and I don't think it's going anywhere. The only change is the amount of pieces that are made of leather now. We have skirts, dresses, pants, shirts, shorts, the list is endless. With so many pieces, it's easy to add leather into your wardrobe, but there can be too much leather. It's good to keep it at maybe two pieces with leather on an outfit. I guss anything goes, just don't add a leather top together with a leather bottom. That would be too much. Personally I wear a leather jacket with some leather boots, but that's where my limit goes.
Shirts
Checkered or plain, a few good shirts are always good to have. I like to layer a lot with shirts, and this fall I´m gonna be using my red checkered shirt a lot. It´s good to choose some that are made of thick fabrick, but some light ones can also be good. I layer them over a plain white tank or a printed t-shirt.
Hope you liked this post, and I think I'll make more like this later.
Bye Bye^^
