Though you may not be hearing the rustle of leaves or feeling the crisp breeze yet, fall will soon be upon us. And with the new season, comes yet another fun excuse to go shopping for a few key pieces to add to the wardrobe. From pants with a little flare to fancy stoles, the season’s latest trends are sure to keep us nice and toasty while looking fabulous this fall.

Runways everywhere are saying farewell to the skinny jean, ushering in a new era of roomier trousers. Some of the new pant styles are only flared at the hem (especially jeans) while other dressier styles have a wider leg from top to bottom. The new style has been making its way to the forefront of fashion for a while now with many denim looks giving us flashbacks from our bell-bottomed days of yore.
If you really want to make this look pop InStyle advises that you pair your flare with heels to help elongate your shape and keep you from tripping up on the hem. Whether you’re shopping for a flared pair of jeans or wide legged trousers, make sure they are high-wasted. This will make your legs look even longer and accentuate those glorious curves. A snug blouse or sweater and fall jacket (probably sitting in your closet right now) goes perfectly with this look.
And if you’re like us, the best part is yet to come - scarves! With all the different scarf styles, patterns and materials to choose from, accessorizing for the fall has never been more fun. The oversized scarf can double as a shawl, the infinity scarf is stylish and requires zero effort to tie, and a more traditional fall scarf can be tied in many ways to add a pop of color or texture to your outfit.
And if you want to channel a very chic old school look making its way back to the runway this fall, go ahead and wrap yourself in a faux fur stole. This look will add sophistication and style to any ensemble.

I love the flared jeans - very figure-flattering! And I would love to wear a faux stole - it will remind me so much of the 'old days', the great fashion pieces of my mother's time!!!
flares and blanket scarves.
As a middle school teacher I have to stay up on trends or listen to my students point out my "old" looking style. I'm in my mid 40's but my students all think I am mid 30's until I correct them. I love the oversized scarfs because they are really versatile and can also help in a chilly classroom. They dress up jeans and a shirt on dress down Friday or go with dresses and skirts. Definitely a must in the fall wardrobe.
I like the high waisted pants.
The flared jeans are so retro..and what, in the 70s, we called bell bottoms! I'm always looking for scarves to enhance my outfits.
Love the oversized scarf!!!!
Love the scarves, they look great and keep you warm!
I am looking forward to trying out high-wasted jeans or wide legged trousers. :)
I love winter clothing. My favorite is sweaters and jackets. I love the long coat with the fur on the picture above.
So glad skinny jeans are out. Big cheer for a new era of roomier trousers!
I like flare jeans, I just can't wear a huge flare because I'm short. But a nice mild flare works!
Scarves! Best of all, I already have several so I don't have to spend any money to be "on trend."
Love the infinity scarves! Looking forward to buying them in more colors this fall :)
I think I'm looking forward to (faux) fur.
Flares all the way:)
