While it still may be 85 degrees outside, our minds here at Who What Wear have made a little time skip in our heads to start planning ahead for the season ahead. Of course, I’m still soaking in the last last few weeks of summer but I just can’t help how much I crave fall, and many of my coworkers seem to agree. And while there are many fall trends that have made it big the past few seasons, I’m ready to say “hello” to some and “bye” to others that may not have been the best fit for me in the past. This year I’m leaning towards trends that lean more minimal and functional, while last year I had fallen too deep into trying every cool thing on the market.

At 23 years old, I’ve finally started to find confidence in picking clothes that make me feel good, so I’m relying on the trends below to add to my personal style instead of drastically changing it. Gone are the days of me trying to find an outfit for my funky Y2K top simply because it’s trending. That being said, if my picks don’t work for you—that’s totally okay. Consider the trends below a starting point for Fall 2022 that you can take from what you please. 

Keep scrolling for trends that I won’t be prioritizing in my wardrobe this year and the ones that are on top of my mind.
