Leaves aren't the only things the change colour when fall arrives - our fashion does, too! It's no secret that fall style often includes a lot of darker, richer colours and neutrals. This year, though, the trend is to dress for optimism - and that means colour!

Fashion expert Cindy Conroy highlighted some of the season’s hottest colours that might just surprise you! She brought some vibrant shades to the season, and even shared her favourite ways to wear them. We love them all!

Find Cindy's looks below, and be sure to watch the video above for more expert style tips!

 

COLOUR TREND: EMERALD GREEN

Green is a major colour this fall, from soft, pale greens all the way to the other end of the spectrum, including those dark, rich greens, but emerald green can add a serious pop to your fall look.

COLOUR TREND: YELLOW

Yellow has been big news all year, ever since Pantone named a bright shade of yellow one of the colours of 2021. There were so many different shades of yellow on the fall runways, which was refreshing to see, but if you want to dip your toes into the colour for fall, try a deeper shade.

For a more casual vibe, break up the set and pair the blazer with Zara high rise flared jeans.

 

COLOUR TREND: LILAC

Lilac is a soft, romantic colour that we tend to associate with springtime, but it’s an incredibly fresh colour to add to your fall outfit rotation.

All shades of pink, as well as those deep red shades, are having a moment this fall. Not only do they make a statement on their own, but they also work really well together.
