Pretty In Purple
All Through Fall

Purple is one of the hottest colors for fall. From pale lilac to deep plum, purple can infuse a burst of color into your wardrobe. Here are some of our favorite purple fashions for fall. Even better, these stylish finds for fashion this fall are also trendy for winter.

Purple fall fashion

1. Top (ModCloth, $48), 2. Scarf (Asos, $16), 3. Flats (Zappos, $62),
4. Sweater (J. Crew, $70), 5. Hair clip (Nordstrom, $38), 6. Skinny jeans (Topshop, $76)

Patterns

Something about this version of purple drives us crazy -- but in a good way! The deep purple hue embellished with a black pattern has an ultra chic and mysterious look for one of your fashion ensembles this fall. Once it gets to be chillier, pair this top with a classic black blazer for a fall-turned-winter style.

Animal prints

Since animal prints have been on the trendspotter radar, kick it up a notch for fall by going purple with your cheetah print. It's the perfect way to dress up a simple outfit and, as it turns out, this purple accessory also looks great with a black blazer for a professional yet spunky look.

Ballerina flats

Skinny jeans and ballerina flats are a classic trend that's hard to top. Since we're crushing on purple, we found a violet pair in satin that will make your fall wardrobe pop. Play them up by pairing with a floral dress or keep it classic by sticking with skinny jeans.

Chic and simple

Famous for creating fashion forward looks that combine night and day clothing items, J.Crew is always full of pleasant suprises that ring so chic, yet so simple, to our ears. This classic purple long-sleeve look can be paired with patterned shorts for fall fashion smarts, but will also keep you cozy during the winter when paired with long pants and a jacket.

Accessories

If your ensemble only needs a sprinkle of color to taste, small accessories like this purple hair clip are a smart styling choice. If you're feeling lazy, throw your hair in a messy bun and clip in this purple accessory for an adorable hairdo that takes little to no effort. Don't think a messy bun can look put together?

Skinny jeans

Since we've already mentioned how timeless and classic skinny jeans are, we found a purple-hued pair perfect for fall and winter fashion. While we don't recommend pairing these with our selection of violet ballerina flats, an adorable heel or a classic black flat will accent these jeans well.
