When it comes to spotting trends, my routine usually involves paying attention to what people are wearing when I’m out and about in New York City. This, coupled with scrolling through my Instagram feed usually gives me all the inspiration I need. From my favorite fashion editors and celebrities to creators, they never cease to disappoint.
As we all prepare our closets for fall, I perused Instagram to find aspirational outfits embracing the upcoming trends that I spotted in-person. From the resurgence of the stunning tomato red hue, the girly tone ballerina pink to bomber jackets and motorcycle-inspired boots, we’ve got you covered. Below, dive into the 5 editor-approved trends we’ll be embracing ASAP.
Moto Boots
In recent months, this trend has been gaining momentum. Instead of reaching for your Doc Martens, reach for some grungy moto boots in either black or brown to top off any outfit.
The Color Red
Tomato red accessories have thrived all summer long and continue to make a statement, even in street style shots during Fashion Month. You can embrace this bold hue throughout the colder months.
Leather Bomber Jackets
There’s something about the bomber jacket receiving a moment that feels so good. Personally, I have a few bombers I wear during warm and cold months. One that I purchased years back is great for when I need a light layer to throw over a laidback look. Bombers are the perfect statement maker.
Blush Pink
Move over millennial pink, blush pink is here to serve If you’re unsure how to take this trend for a spin, channel your inner ballerina with some ballet flats or dive into the hottest small accessory trend, a bow.
Bedazzled Flats
Khaite was basically the first brand to lead the way with the bedazzled flats movement. Their Marcy flats debuted as a part of their Spring/Summer 2023 collection. If you’re feeling like you want your shoes to speak for themselves, pull out a pair of glitzy flats.
Mini bags are still a thing, here’s one I would absolutely purchase due to the detailing: the tiny bow, the intricate stitching and the crescent shape.

Take things over the top with this head-turner equipped with minimalistic details like: chic buttons and front flap pockets.
Available at Anthropologie
The baseball collar on this one did it for me, I can imagine it with one of my favorite mixed metal chunky necklaces (the collar wouldn’t hide my necklace).
Available at Princess Polly
This barrette set is taking me back to the ‘00s, it’s giving Claire’s and Delia’s vibes for sure. The bow resurgence is something I love, it’s one part of the aughts trend that truly pulls at my heart strings.
