Fall 2013 Fashion Trends: Tweed

Tweed is in for fall. It's laughable right? Like, duh, when is tweed NOT in for fall. But I was impressed with how many designers really found ways to reinterpret the fall classic, either by pairing it with edgy leather or sparkly sequins or with a new cut.

Tweedy Fall


Gorgeous tweed pieces popped up in the collections of Chanel, Prada (oh, I DIE for these coats), Badgely Mischka, Tory Burch, Carolina Herrera and Zac Posen.

Fall Fashion: Tweed


Unfortunately, the malls don't quite deliver the same ingenuity that appeared on runways, but you can still capture the classic spirit and odds are, the pieces you buy today will never go out of style.

  1. Capture that schoolboy look at an AMAZING price with this blazer, $35 at Target.
  2. Pair this classic tweed skirt with turtlenecks, blazers, satin blouses, bejeweled tees...the pairings are basically limitless. $69 at Nordstrom.
  3. This ladylike tweed dress is made a little edgy with leather trim, $90 at Lord & Taylor.
  4. And this young, edgy dress is made a little grown-up with tweed. It would be great with tights and ankle booties. $254 at Urban Outfitters.
  5. A work appropriate tweedy sweatshirt, AMEN! $118 at J. Crew.
  6. And a wear-it-everywhere tweedy Tee, $60 at J.Crew, as well.
