Journal prompts to help grow and develop your style this fall.
Fall fashion is about being creative and making an effort to create looks that show your personal style.
Let’s Get Into It
What do you want to wear this fall
Write down five to 10 articles of clothing, aesthetics, and accessories you want to wear this fall to help develop your fall fashion sense.
It’s ideas.
To make it more interactive, you can create mood boards using Pinterest or a journal entry of cutouts for inspiration.
Define your current personal style and why it needs an upgrade
Could be the lack of good quality fabrics; polyester has taken over your closet. Maybe you want more knee boots than ballerina shoes.
Think about what you currently wear and why you want to dress more in tune with you this fall.
I am recycling…
Pick at least 10 items to recycle or donate so you can fit the items you truly want inside your life. Decluttering can help you get rid of what no longer serves, and into wearing items that speak to who you are becoming.
Plus, someone else may fall in love with the item.

One place I haven’t shopped before but would love to is…
Think of somewhere new; it can be a boutique you pass by daily or an online site that keeps popping up. Go ahead and give it a look; it may be holding the item you were looking for.
The one accessory I want this fall is…
Sometimes, we overlook the power of an accessory.
Which can be great at being the statement piece your outfit is lacking.
Maybe you want to add beanies to your looks, or ties. It’s truly up to you.
I am no longer wearing…
Right now my answer would be knee socks, well, trouser socks. I am giving them a rest because I am older; they no longer fit into the woman I am becoming. (lol)
I am thinking about boots that cover just my calves and different styles of loafers rather than the black platform style.
As you grow, your style grows, and that’s the beauty of developing personal style. You have to know when you’ve outgrown something and no longer invest in it because it’s no longer you.
This pattern is my go-to…
Find one pattern to wear this fall that defines your attitude. It can be animal print, maybe even polka dots. I would hope it’s NOT polka dots. However, a good pattern to buy different pieces from and experiment with is something we all need to create cohesive, fun fall fashion looks.
