Red. Orange. Brown. Those are some of the colors we often see this time of year. I happen to love the fall time—the colors, the clothes, the weather and the spirits. Velvet, silk and thick knits are some of the textures we often wear during this time of year. Here in New York City, the weather definitely fluctuates between cool and warm; so here’s an outfit I’m sharing with you for this time of year during school. As you can see I’m wearing this beautiful red velvet matching set. The set is from & Other Stories, which was a collaboration with Rodarte. The thing I love most about this set for the fall is the color and the velvet. Velvet is such a staple piece and fabric for this time of year. Velvet has really been popping out on scarves, boots, clothing and more. The color of this is a beautiful wine color which makes this set even more perfect.
With this beautiful outfit I am also wearing black flats by Alice and Olivia. This wine shade of red goes much better with the color black than any other color. On a cooler day I would wear black boots and a long black suede coat with this outfit. The velvet would complement the suede nicely as well as add another kind of texture to the look. This set is very soft and comfortable and I love the compliments I get while wearing it. As I mentioned, New York City’s temperature goes up and down during the spring and fall seasons. On this warmer day I thought I would still include some fall colors and textures into my outfit.
Two-piece sets have been in for the past year and they’re great for any occasion. There are also sets that are long-sleeved, short-sleeved and for the winter or summer. They’re perfect for lazy days when you want to look more dressed up but you’re too tired. They’re a whole outfit in themselves. All you have to add are shoes, some accessories and maybe a coat. This outfit that I’m wearing is really great for any occasion. Styled like this you could wear it to school, dressed down of course. You could wear it out at night with friends, on the weekend shopping or to a concert. The possibilities for this and other two-piece sets are endless.
