Shop the Trends: Fall Edition

When a new trend hits there’s always at least one brand we look to who’s doing the trend right. Think Lululemon for hi-rise leggings or Patagonia for fleece vests. Scroll below for current Fall trends to start shopping and what brands to search for that are doing the trend right.

SHACKETS:

This season’s crossover style is shirt jackets. Grab one when you like being outtsiiiddee, but aren’t ready to commit to a full-on jacket. We especially have our eyes on shackets in plaid or sherpa.

SEARCH: ZARA, AVEC LES FILLES and American Eagle

CHUNKY SHOES:
Ready to bare your sole? Make it a thick, chunky sole and you’ve got our attention. Whether you’re feeling boots, sneakers, or loafers this Fall, make them chunky and you’ll be held in high regard.

SEARCH: ASOS, Dr. Martens, Steve Madden and Circus by Sam Edelman

OVERSIZED LEATHER BLAZERS:
Nothing says effortlessly cool like an oversized leather blazer. Embrace this street style by going up a size when shopping for your Fall layers.

SEARCH: ZARA, Princess Polly and Forever 21

Shop our curated list of must-have layers.

SLIP DRESSES:
Slip dresses can take you from Holiday parties to chilling with friends in an instant. How to wear them in Fall? Throw on a blazer and your chunky boots to complete the look.

SEARCH: Victoria’s Secret and Princess Polly

Shop our curated list of formal wear.

RELAXED TROUSERS:

For when you’re in a soft pants mood, but want to look chic, grab for relaxed trousers. The flowy silhouette adds length to your look. Plus, they’re comfy, cozy, and cool.

Search: Urban Outfitters, ZARA, Princess Polly, and Motel Rocks

Anna Redman’s 5 Favorite Curtsy Finds✨

Let’s be honest, we’ve all bought an outfit just for the pic. Pose, *click*, and post, then it’s hung up in the graveyard section of our closets. But constantly feeding into the unsustainable nature of the fashion industry just to keep up with what’s #trending on social media left me feeling… well… broke and bitter.

*Enters Curtsy*

When my friend introduced me to the Curtsy app, I felt as if the tug-of-war game between my want for fun clothes and my moral obligation to be environmentally conscious suddenly stopped.

From closet staples to fads, to this season’s “must-haves,” Curtsy allowed me to participate in the latest trends, knowing the clothes I was buying had more than a one-picture lifecycle. 

To this day, I’ve sold over 187 items, saved over $1.3k, and made over $3k. 

Here’s some proof that you can not only have the best of both worlds, but with Curtsy, both worlds can be fabulous. 

A round-up of my 5 favorite Curtsy finds 🤩: 

5. Abercrombie ’90s Ultra High Rise Straight Jeans 

I had my eye on these jeans forever! But not a close enough one, because every time they were restocked, they sold out before I even had the chance to log onto the Abercrombie website. My roommate found these and DM’ed them to me and I IMMEDIATELY added them to my cart. Such a good find, and now my favorite pair of jeans!

4. Vintage Prada Purse This purse is the ultimate “Hot Girl Purse.”

She’s short and chunky—fitting perfectly on my shoulder, a little dirty—because she’s been loved, and has the stitching that screams, “this purse was made for a 90’s night club.” 

3. Hot Pink Meshki Dress 

This dress is the *chef’s kiss* of all dresses. Corseted across the back, cinching in the waist to make you look snatched ⏳, but leaving room around the gut (which is essential). I’ve worn this dress a handful of times, including my 25th Birthday, and every time people are astonished that it is technically thrifted.

2. Green Superdown Two-Piece

This was an “I want it, I got it” moment, minus the crippling my credit card part. I found this Revolve party set right before I flew out to Miami just knowing she would be a moment. And guess what, she was. 😘

1. Vintage Chanel Pearl Necklace

Does it need an explanation? No. Hands-down best purchase.

Find your own favorite looks to rock by shopping mine and other’s closets on Curtsy!

Shop my closet on Wednesday, July 28th! 💥 20% of proceeds will go directly to @Remakeourworld to support ethical fashion.

3 Aesthetics You NEED for Summer 2021 🌼


So the Summer is the time to have fun in the sun BUT there is a way to do it in style! There are three Summer aesthetics that have been trending lately 📈 so we have all the details on how to dress like the Coconut Girl, Maximalist, and Cottagecore babes this Summer! A lot of it you probably already have in your closet and the rest you can definitely find secondhand through the Curtsy App! We want the Curtsy Gals looking trendy this Summer so let’s get started!

🐚 Coconut Girl
The Coconut Girl is what we all THOUGHT we were dressing like when we wore brands like Billabong, Hollister and Pacsun in Middle school. She is a trendy, beachy, y2k/90s babe in Summer 2021! Some staples of the Coconut Girl include hibiscus print, crochet clothing, shells, beads, chunky jewelry, low rise mini skirts and baby tees, and of course – bucket hats and hair scarves!

💥 Maximalist
The Maximalist is someone who LOVES to stand out with bold prints and use fashion in showstopping ways. There has been such a push towards minimalism in fashion, interior design and style the last few years that it is not surprising that the opposite is making a statement. Some ways to find pieces in the Maximalism style world would be to mix patterns, geometric shapes, add bright colors, funky jewelry and avant garde clothing to your closet this season!

👒 Cottagecore
Cottagecore style started to rise in popularity last year when the world was significantly slowing down. People began spending time baking bread, spending more time in the gardens and going on nature walks to escape the reality of the state of the world. Cottagecore aesthetic is returning to simpler times – baking, making candles, wearing billowy sleeves, peasant tops and super feminine dresses. Floral patterns, gingham, muted and pastel tones, hats, scarves and appreciating the world around you is the perfect way to get in touch with your cottagecore self!

▶️ Watch: How to shop for Coconut Girl, Maximalist, and CottageCore on Curtsy!
