Fall 2014 Fashion Trends: Fun Clothes and Clothing Accessories

I’ll start with a solid-color vest. I’m choosing this one because it has a beautiful color, dark gray tinged with blue. Just take a closer look to see. If you prefer it in electric blue or fuchsia pink, you have those options as well. As I’m writing this, this faux fur gilet is $24.63, down from $82.45, which makes it a great gift for yourself or for a friend this fall or winter. Note that it has two 5-star reviews on Amazon so far, which is another reason to consider this vest as a Christmas or birthday gift.

Of all leopard print clothing items out there, I like strapless tube tops the best because the print spreads on the smallest surface. Moreover, it spreads over your breasts, flattering your torso. Unless you’re very skinny, wearing this leopard print on pants may work against you. Also, this animal print on pants gets too busy, I think, going as it does all the way down to your feet. For pants I prefer another trend of the season, vertical stripes.

There are a lot of leggings and skinny pants with black and white vertical stripes around, but most of them are not of good quality. For this article I chose a pair of pants made of sturdy denim, with a rating of 4.5 stars on Amazon. They’re not cheap ($42.99) but I’m thinking they would make a great Christmas gift for your girlfriend or wife this season. If you get the size right, that is.

Infinity scarves with animal print are in this year. One such scarf, with an elephant print, is really popular on Pinterest. The elephant is a symbol of good luck, happiness and longevity in Asian cultures. Scarfand (Scarf&), a New York City company, sells lots of infinity scarves with animal and bird prints (elephants, horses, reindeer, eagles, other birds, sea stars) in many colors. I’m showing the gray one with the elephant print because I like their elephant design. Also, as I mentioned already, grays are in.

These scarves have 4.3 stars on Amazon, and at $12 they make great Christmas gifts for friends if you’re looking for fun, trendy bargains.

This is another fun bargain for you, your friends, and your family this fall and Christmas season. For only $8.99 at the time of my writing this (down from $20.99), you get a good quality wool hat with a serious cute factor. It comes in trendy shades of red, orange, and camel. (The image below shows more colors, but they don't all appear as options on Amazon.)

Suspenders over shirts are in, and they’re mostly worn for looks rather than to hold up pants. They look great with skinny jeans, for instance, which don’t need extra support. These suspenders come in brown, blue, gray, green, red, and yellow. They cost only $4.99 (down from $9.99) and would make great bargain gifts for friends this Christmas, or for your girlfriend or wife if you’re on a tight budget but thinking of surprising her with a number of fun smaller presents under the Christmas tree this season.

Bouclé jackets have been trendy for the past couple of years. I’ve seen waist-length jackets of this kind worn with jeans, and love the look, but I’m equally partial to longer bouclé jackets. I’m showing one of them here. It’s not cheap, but I love its salt and pepper weave. It’s 70% acrylic and 30% cotton, which is a great combo. If you can afford to spend a little more this Christmas, I’m thinking you can’t go wrong with this beautiful, trendy jacket.

I hope this article has given you some ideas of fun trendy clothes and accessories you or your girlfriend / wife may enjoy. Have a lovely holiday season!
