It’s hard not to love the autumn with its awesome fashion trends.
The best clothing surfaces in the fall — from flannel tops and sweaters to burgundy tights to leather or fringed jackets. So naturally, the best fall college fashion trends surface too.
This fall, there are some new (or old, depending on how you look at these things) trends that will undoubtedly be hitting Claflin University.
Leather jackets and bomber jackets, for instance, are super ‘80s and ‘90s, but they are making a fierce comeback in revamped style. Whether they are into the whole retro thing or haven’t taken off a favorite romper since June, students have opinions about a few fashion items that are going to be trending this fall.
Senior Tatiana Canselo says, “Sweaters, of course, are a must for fall. Whether you wear them with leggings and combat boots, they always come in handy when the weather starts to get cooler.”
“It wouldn’t be fall without flannel. Period. Whether its red flannel or black and white plaid, you need a couple of solid options in your closet,” says Danielle Coburn, senior. “Loose-fitting sweaters are amazing with black leggings for a super easy outfit to head to class.”
And let’s not forget the perfect pair of boots to go with your outfit will depend a lot on the style you are going for. Combat boots will complete a casual or edgy style, while riding boots will give you a more preppy and polished style. Booties with a small heel are perfect when you want to dress up slightly.
