The question of what is worth spending money on can be considered philosophical. On the one hand, it is up to you to decide what to spend your money on. On the other hand, you need to be more conscious about your shopping (at least that’s what all the glossy magazines and fashion bloggers say). I agree, buying something that all urban fashionistas already have seems like a dubious idea. And ordering things that will be worn once is not very good either.
That’s why we decided to find out which wardrobe items you shouldn’t buy in the fall of 2024. And they suggested what could be used instead to avoid stopping your shopping urges.
By the way, not so long ago we talked about the main trends of the upcoming season and also collected the most current shades that should definitely be in your wardrobe. Therefore, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with them in order to be aware of the most important things. So now let’s go back to the question of what you should not spend money on.
Beige trench coat
If you have a beige trench coat in your wardrobe, this does not mean that you should put it aside and not take it out for a few more years. This item is an undeniable classic. However, if you do not already have such an outerwear model in your wardrobe, we recommend replacing the beige color with a less pronounced black, brown or gray. If you want to prefer sand color, prefer raincoats instead of trench coats. This model will look less banal.
High neck sweater
Another basic wardrobe item that everyone has in their collection. That’s why we recommend that you don’t spend half your salary on another wool or cashmere sweater, but buy a trendy cardigan. There are several reasons for this. First, it is in no way inferior to a sweater in terms of warmth. Second, this item is now at the top of the list of fall trends. Third, it can be worn in a variety of ways. For example, completely unbuttoned or buttoned with a single button, as fashion influencers do.
Hard soled loafers
Despite the fact that loafers belong to the basic category, models with very large and rigid platforms have now faded into the background. They have been replaced by more classic options with less accentuated soles. So if you want to expand your shoe collection, bet on the latter and wear them with midi skirts, classic trousers or straight jeans.
Midi length jacket
In autumn, everyone wants to buy themselves a new coat that is both warm, fashionable and versatile. It is not an easy request, but we know very well which model you should not choose this season. We are talking about a coat of midi length (i.e. up to the knee). The reason is simple: it does not look as dramatic as the maxi and is not as hooligan as the cropped version. In simple words, medium-length coats are read as very traditional and do not provide opportunities for experimentation.
Short jacket
Last season, especially short jackets were very popular. We saw them not only on the catwalk, but also in social media posts and on the streets of big cities. But now there is no point in buying such a model. Firstly, it is already in the wardrobe of all urban fashionistas. Secondly, it will be difficult to style such a jacket in the fall and choose the right outerwear. Therefore, we recommend that you vote for the classic length options.
Maxi skirt
This fall, designers, stylists and fashion influencers invite us to forget about extremely long skirts and opt for trendy midis. We support this recommendation with both hands, as maxi skirts in the fall season can look pathetic due to inappropriate outerwear. However, midi skirts will look great both in the accompaniment of a rough biker jacket and in a duet with the aforementioned maxi jacket.
Leather Bomber
Another thing that has lost its relevance a bit. Let’s admit that last fall, leather bomber jackets were almost the most sought-after item on the wish list of every fashion-conscious person. The popularity of the item was influenced by the images of Dua Lipa, Kendall Jenner and other starlets. But now leather bombers have faded into the background. Instead, you can opt for classic biker jackets, work jackets or sherpas.
