STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Falling in love with fall!

Is your closet suddenly filled with an abundance of flannels, sweaters and booties? Does your home consistently emanate a delicious smell of apple crisps, pumpkin spice candles or hot cider? If you are saying yes to either of these questions, then this could only mean one thing: you are falling in love—with fall! The favorite season of many students, particularly those at Marist College who take in the beautiful views of the changing colors on the Hudson River, is finally here, and we could not be more excited. The countless fall activities make for great pictures with your friends and family! Of course, you will need the perfect outfit while roaming through the apple orchards or picking out the perfectly shaped pumpkin.

We can take some fall fashion inspiration from this Fashionista, who rocks a suede button-down skirt paired with a blue bell-sleeve blouse. The flowy top, embellished with crochet detailing, coupled with the structured skirt creates a unique and eye-catching look. In addition, the faded blue blouse is nicely contrasted against the neutral brown bottom. This Fashionista pairs together two unexpected fabrics and colors, resulting in a relaxed, bohemian and overall cohesive ensemble. For accessories, she carries a simple vegan leather tote bag and finishes off the look with a pair of brown low booties.

My style advice of the week for the early fall season is inspired by this Fashionista’s stylish outfit. Experiment with mixing different fabrics and colors to create a unique look. With all of the fun festivities in the upcoming months, fall will sweep you off your feet, only to land you right back on the ground right before finals roll around!
