As the leaves change and the air gets crisp, it’s time to embrace the rich and warm tones for fall fashion. But with so many beautiful fall colors to choose from, how do you know which shades will complement your skin tone and style best? Let’s drive into the must-have hues of the season and tips on how to wear them for your most stylish autumn yet!
Identify your Skin Tone
Before diving into fall colors, it’s essential to understand your skin tone. Typically, skin tones fall into three categories: cool, warm, and neutral. Here’s how to identify yours:
- Cool: You have blue or purple veins, burn easily in the sun, and look great in silver jewelry.
- Warm: Your veins appear green, you tan easily, and gold jewelry complements your skin.
- Neutral: You have a mix of both cool and warm tones, and both gold and silver jewelry suit you.
Choosing Fall Colors for Cool Tones:
If your skin has cool undertones, you’ll want to stick with the cooler shades of fall’s color palette. Think of colors with blue, green, or pink bases. Some great options include:
- Cranberry Reds: Deep, berry-like reds add richness to your wardrobe without overpowering your skin tone.
- Emerald Greens: A jewel-toned green is both elegant and perfect for cool-toned skin.
-
Plum Purples: This shade brings out the natural blush of your cool undertones.
- Styles Tip: Pair the Polka Dot Round Neck Tiered Mini Dress
in a cool, muted tones like gray or soft black with some cute booties to create a classic fall look.
Choosing Fall Colors for Warm Tones:
Warm-toned skin looks radiant in colors inspired by the natural landscape of autumn. Think of earthy shades that mirror the changing leaves. Ideal fall hues include:
- Burnt Oranges: A staple of the season, this warm and cozy hue flatters warm-toned skin beautifully.
- Mustard Yellows: This rich golden hue adds a pop of warmth and energy to any fall outfit.
-
Olive Greens: Earthy and grounded, olive green is a subtle but flattering shade for warm skin.
- Style Tip: The Contrast Long Sleeve Sweatshirt is burnt orange or rust will become your go-to piece for layering up in cozy style.
Neutral Tones: Embrace Versatility
Lucky enough to have neutral undertones? You can pull off both cool and warm fall colors with ease! To make the most of this, try mixing and matching tones for a balanced look. A few fall favorites include:
- Rust Reds: A perfect balance of warmth and depth, rust red is universally flattering.
- Taupe and Browns: Neutral tones like taupe and caramel browns provide a sophisticated foundation for any fall look.
-
Forest Greens: A versatile green that works beautifully with both warm and cool undertones.
- Style Tip: Layer the Color Block Open Front Hooded Cardigan over a neutral-toned dress like the Ruched Notched Cap Sleeve Dress to create a balanced, effortless chic look.
Accessorize with Fall Hues
Don’t forget about accessories when incorporating fall colors! They are an easy and subtle way to introduce bold hues without overwhelming your look. A Tasseled PU Leather Handbag in a rich autumn shade like ruse or mustard adds a touch of seasonal flair to any outfit. Or try a cozy scarf in a warm-toned plaid to add texture and color to your wardrobe.
Experiment with Layers
Fall fashion is all about layering, so don’t be afraid to play with different tones and textures. Pair lighter, cool-toned tops with warm-toned outerwear like a Plaid Button Up Jacket or go monochrome with shades in the same color family. Layering also gives you the flexibility to experiment with bold pops of color in scarves, hats, or boots.
Bold Prints for the Bold at Heart
If you love to stand out, don’t shy away from incorporating fall’s best colors in bold prints. Try a leopard print blouse like our Leopard Round Neck Flounce Sleeve Blouse for a fun and stylish statement piece. Pair it with a more subdued bottom in a rich fall tone to keep the look balanced.
