Want your fall wardrobe to be as hot as all the great looks shown at the New York Fashion Week? Then stick to tons of color, plenty of texture, and sleek silhouettes.

Go Skinny

If you haven’t done the skinny pants thing, don’t put it off any longer! This trend is still going strong with designers like Diane von Furstenberg, Narciso Rodriguez and Ralph Lauren using it to perfection. A skinny pant can be used to create entirely different looks, from cool and casual to sleek and sophisticated to upscale, high-fashion. Just mix and match it with other textures for a really eye-catching outfit.

Be Bold

Another great trend from the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Show was the fabulous use of bold colors by Tommy Hilfiger, Tadashi Shoji and Max Azria, to name just a few. Give it a shot! Pair a brightly colored top with a toned down bottom to keep the look stylish but not overwhelming. The key here is to use solids.

Sleek Silhouettes

Oh, and did I mention that nothing finishes off your fall look better than a belt? See how these designers accessorized their slim silhouettes with the simple addition of a beautiful belt. Look 1 is from Carolina Herrera. Look 2 is from Donna Karan New York. Look 3 is from Carlos Miele.
