Focus on red to get you in the mood for Autumn! This color change will take your summer outfits to Fall, even if they don’t include sweaters or cozy knits. The color is cozy itself, as fiery as the autumn leaves. But there’s more to it than that. I dove right in to explore why red is the most brilliant color choice for fall fashion.
Whether in clothing or jewelry, red has a cheerful effect to perk up your wardrobe and your mood. It makes you stand out from the crowd. If you buy new pieces in this shade, it’s going to last because it is a forever classic. And so, age doesn’t matter.
This is an updated post to give you the highest quality content.
Nowadays, it seems that the end-of-summer weather is still too warm even after Labor Day to wear the Fall clothes that our society expects. During this time, I like to explore seasonal colors to get in the mood. And then when we’re in the swing of Autumn with crisp, cool temperatures followed by the cold Winter, our clothing colors automatically change to match the natural world around us. (See my Style Tip on How to Dress With the Changing Seasons HERE.) No matter what the weather, I’m here today to help you find out how to combine the new Fall/Winter fashion colors now and later in bold and creative ways. Age doesn’t matter.
This is my annual update on the Fall/Winter trending colors. There are traditional Autumn wardrobe colors and then there are those that the Pantone Color Institute has noted as trends on the Fashion Week runways.

I’m excited that designers have turned to teal for clothing designs that can go from Summer to Fall in 2024. Blue-green is my favorite color, so it was fun for me to check out what colors go best with teal. The result can be some really sensational outfits!
One of the most appealing things about teal is that it is a universal color that looks good on everyone. You just have to choose your favorite shade. I’m sure you’ll find when you wear this that age doesn’t matter!
You know how I say age doesn’t matter because older is bolder? Well, citron green will make you stand out. I encourage you to wear this trending color this year and beyond. The spring/summer 2024 runways introduced this zesty hue per the collections of LaPointe, Alejandra Alonso Rojas, and Elisabetta Franchi. The electric chartreuse works well for special occasions but can easily be toned down and dressed down.
As a lively yellow green, it will be useful in the fall as well. For winter, contrast it with dark and cool colors and thick, textured fabrics.
If citron is just too far out of your comfort zone, use it in accessories as a color pop with a more neutral look. For instance, add a bright handbag. Or, consider adding it as a belt or a statement necklace. Peridot gemstones create a nice blend of green.
If you don’t have anything in citron you might like to use one of its cousins, chartreuse or lime green, instead.
So let’s get comfortable with how to wear this color. First, we can become more familiar with colors that go well with it. From there, it’s pretty easy to start brightening up our outfits in a wide variety of ways.
At the beginning of spring, it’s still cold so we can’t just run outside in our shorts all of a sudden…although some people do anyways. That’s okay if they like to dive right in like that. But I like to stay cozy. It’s much warmer and easier to just start in on wearing spring colors. You can find my style tip on how to use the classic spring colors now right HERE. I’m writing this on the first day of spring. So I consider this the ideal time to start wearing the Spring/Summer 2024 colors.
