French Girls Are Way Ahead of Me With These 5 Fall Trends
When I think about it, I'm not exactly sure why fall is my favorite season considering the weather barely changes in Southern California. Nevertheless, I still look forward to the season every year, not least because I love all the new cute, cozy clothes that hit the market. For me, comfort is the name of the game, but I'm also looking forward to getting out of my sweatpants and try out some fun trends.
When it comes to inspiring outfits, they're certainly in no shortage in France. Parisian influencers I follow like Ellie from Slip Into Style and Leia Sfez always come through with the coolest interpretations of the biggest trends. Not only are they more experimental than I tend to be, but they're also ahead of me literally speaking since the weather in Paris cools down much sooner than L.A. So, without further ado, scroll down to see the
1. Leather Trousers
These are a bit edgy for Madewell and I love it.
I love how these are styled with snakeskin-printed shoes.
2. Extra-Chunky Lug Soles

3. Low-Slung Pants
4. Head-to-Toe Brown
ICYMI, head-to-toe brown made the list of our top trends for fall.
5. Shoulder Pads
I had to do a double-take at the price on this one because it looks so expensive.
Next, Cindy Crawford wore skinny jeans with sensational Nordstrom reviews.
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.
