Great Fall Fashion Trends for Back-to-School

August is an exciting month! Some of us are finishing up summer vacations and activities, while others are making back-to-school plans. And no doubt, those plans include shopping for new clothes!

Now’s the perfect time to visit Apricot Lane, with new trendy colors and styles hitting the shelves. You’re sure to find some great color combinations for the season, including dark plums, greens, and browns. It’s very hip right now to layer these colors with black and charcoal grays – a great look for this fall!

Here are some back-to-school must haves:
  • Denim and tees never go out of style! This is the year to take this simple combination and really create your own look by adding accessories like funky scarves and cool hats.
  • Retro styles are going strong, with acid washes from the 80’s popping up again.
  • Maxi dresses have been hot all summer and will continue into fall. Add a great pair of leggings or tights and boots, and you’ll have the look for fall!
  • The ever-versatile cardigan will be quite fashionable as well, since it’s so easy to throw over dresses, tees, blouses, or even wear alone.
  • Eco-friendly materials are gaining popularity. Check out the new organic cottons and organic silks if you’re looking to follow the green trend.
  • Flowers, flowers, and more flowers! Floral designs are very hot right now, and you’ll find them in jewelry, scarves and even handbags.
If you’re looking to add just one or two new items to your closet this season, remember that a great-fitting pair of jeans is a must! You can dress them up or down, and they will always be a staple in your wardrobe. Miss Me Denim will give you a fabulous fit, great pocket detail, and an affordable price ($89-$118). Anama also features beautiful styles, great colors, and fabulous print detail. Whichever brand you choose, make sure your find a pair that makes you feel awesome when you wear them!

Once you have the denim covered, load up on accessories! Try layering chunky necklaces and bracelets, or adding a couple of hats or scarves to your wardrobe. By varying combinations, you can create a new look almost every day!

Apricot Lane can help you find all of the latest fashions and fall colors. If you’re looking for styles you’ve seen on the Gossip Girls or the new 90210 stars, stop in and we’ll put something together for you. You’ll enjoy your back-to-school shopping excursions at Apricot Lane!
