This Parisian Wears Color 300 Days a Year—Here Are Her Top Fall Trends
I follow different Instagram accounts for different reasons: Anouk Yve for minimalist outfits, Kelly Talamas for up-and-coming brands, and Madelynn Furlong for interior inspiration. When it comes to tips on how to wear color, I go straight to Ellie, a.k.a @slipintostyle. The Paris-based influencer always wears the most joyful, vibrant outfits and isn't afraid to experiment with color. (And yes, the French backdrops certainly don't hurt, either.) Y
Her Instagram feed is an explosion of color: reds, pinks, blues, yellows, and more. You'll hardly find any black outfits on her feed, but if she does wear the classic color, it's always livened up with interesting details like fringe or ruching. In other words, her pictures are never boring. Considering her expertise, I wanted to ask Ellie about her favorite color trends for fall—scroll down to read about them and shop the hues.
1. Canary Yellow
"I love canary yellow. It works really well if you want to accessorize with flashier colors like electric blue." —@slipintostyle
Between the smocking, bows, and ruffles, this might be the most perfect $30 top.
2. Taupe
"When I’m in the mood for wearing neutrals, taupe is a great go-to. I would suggest wearing it with lots of flashy accessories like rhinestones or gold jewelry because especially with my skin tone, I don’t want to disappear into the background." —@slipintostyle
This is a great layering piece when chilly weather eventually arrives.
There's a reason Birkenstock sandals still sell like crazy: they're extremely comfortable and will always be cool.
3. Hot Pink
"Hot pink is my favorite to wear any season. When everybody else is wearing black or darker colors especially in the fall-winter days, I go for pink and mix it up with any color: red, electric blue, white. It’s an instant mood-lifter." —@slipintostyle
I'd wear these with a white tee and denim shorts.
4. Burnt Orange
"Burnt orange is the perfect color for fall as it reminds me of autumn leaves and it’s a staple in my fall wardrobe. I tend to avoid an all orange look and love to pair it with olive, brown or even lilac for a more unexpected pairing." —@slipintostyle
I'd wear this under an oversized button-down blouse (with the buttons undone).
Next, 22 cute running shorts to wear with sneakers (or slippers at home).
Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
