I am team September-means-fall, so break out the pumpkin spice! While I’m not normally one to ride and die by trend reports, this season’s runway trends have seemed a bit more approachable and doable in everyday life. This time a few years back, I was sitting at New York Fashion Week runway shows, seeing the upcoming season’s styles firsthand – but it always felt a bit odd and confusing, since there sometimes seemed to be such disconnect between what was showing on a glamorous runway versus in everyday life or on Target racks. Nowadays, trends seem to be more influenced by TikTok than Vogue, and even that can feel discouraging to Millennials like me who prefer tops to cover our belly buttons. 😉 But all things considered, I’m stoked that some of this fall’s trends feel much more relatable and wearable to the everyday ladies like us.
2022 FALL TRENDS:
- Baggy denim – I’ll still be grabbing a boyfriend or mom jean over the ultra baggy denim for practicality purposes, but it’s definitely a look when paired with something snugger up top (like a bodysuit or crop top)
- Punky prep – Think combat boots or chunky loafers with your crisp white button-down or plaid kilt-like midi skirt.
- Hot pink – Shocking to me that it made the autumnal cut, but I’m here for hot pink always!
- Leather jacket – Always a fall staple.
- Sequins – BLESS UP.
- Bomber jackets – Again, always a staple, always fall chic!
- OTK boots with micro mini skirts – While OTK boots feel like they’re a seasonal staple, the micro mini rose to fame more recently.
- Maxi hemlines – Great for transitioning your flowier summer maxi dresses and skirts into fall – just add a bomber or leather jacket and you’re totally vogue.
- Little white tank top – Especially when paired with classic denim. Feels a bit like a Calvin Klein ad!
Some of my highlighted fall trends to try this season are pops of pink and punky prep details. Pink isn’t normally a color that screams “fall,” but it’s a fun, feminine extension from the bright shades of summer that I’m happy is helping transition to cooler, crisper months.
In taking a handful of 2022 fall trends and making them work realistically, I put together a little ‘fit with some personal favorites: a pink shacket, baggier denim (not exactly full-blown BAGGY, but looser!), and a pop of punky prep.

It’s all right there in one place, and honestly, I don’t even find myself scrolling as much because every piece of content feels more intentionally there, where I’m actually LEARNING and consuming more than I am mindlessly scrolling!
