Well, it is officially fall and we are
already thinking about sweater weather
and indulging in comfort and style.
But there are some fall colors that
are a big no for a lot of people.
Or is that all in our minds?
Hmm. Stylist Darcy Camden is here
and she says anyone can be an
autumn when it comes to fashion.
So we're putting you to the test. We are.
I'm surprised that this is so controversial.
But, you know, you talk about a
colored like mustard yellow to people
and half the room will be like,
I love it and the other half is like,
hate it. No.
And so, and I've even heard people
kind of say that they're afraid
of certain colors and we should
not be afraid of wearing color.
OK, So what is? Let's talk really quickly.
What is an autumn color?
What is considered?
Think about a pumpkin patch and
an apple orchard at sunset.
It's like the yellows,
the oranges, the Reds,
little green Browns that those are
sort of the warm tones of autumn.
OK, alright, I feel it.
I was feeling it when you took me there.
I had apple cider.
In my mind,
how do you know if a color is
good or bad for you?
I mean,
typically you can know when you look at it,
but sometimes I have thought
things looked good and then later
on I see them and I'm like,
well, I do think we should trust
our instincts on this one.
So if you try, if you don't know
if a color will look good on you,
you should absolutely try it.
And if you feel good, lively,
happy, it's a good color for you.
And if you feel kind of like blah sallow,
then not a good color to wear by your face,
but you could use it.
And other parts of your outfit?
That's genius.
So you can still wear colors in some way,
even if you fear that they're not a
good color. Yeah, I can't wear Gray.
Gray looks awful. But do you like Gray?
You like having Gray here and there?
It just doesn't look good on me.
Yeah. Alright,
so you got some models and some style tips,
so let's get to it.
You're the first model.
Hello?
I am.
Well, you know,
there's this thing of,
like,
people identifying as an
autumn or a winter or a spring,
and I think that's a little
bit like horoscopes, honestly.
Like.
Like some people are really into
it and other people are like,
I don't really know.
It doesn't affect their daily
life in any way.
So I am technically,
I don't think, like an autumn,
but I love autumn colors.
And so I think if you like
autumn colors and you find one
that makes you feel good,
like I'm wearing this,
you can rock it head to toe.
And this is really easy.
Colors that we like,
we we we tend to buy
a lot of them. Yes.
And so you can pick, you know,
go into your own closet,
shop your closet, you know,
same color, top, bottom, even maybe.
A shoe in the hue.
Hue and go head to toe.
It's bold, but you know,
if you love it and I love this, go right on.
I feel like it wasn't.
It was when Michelle Obama were that
monochromatic color to the inauguration.
It was all shades of Burgundy.
And now we're seeing,
and I think that's really,
it makes a really strong statement.
So I think it's good for like
a family holiday situation.
I love it.
OK, let's talk about your second model.
You say pair your favorite autumn
hues with its opposite color.
So here we see.
The mustard yellow,
the controversial mustard yellow.
Now if you use a color wheel which you can,
you can just Google color wheel and
you can see what a color wheel is.
So the color on the opposite side
is known as the complementary
opposite and they balance each other.
So the opposite of mustard yellow is blue,
which a lot of people own
because denim obviously.
And so if you love this color,
when we pulled these pants out in the
dressing room, all the models were like.
Love that color,
but I'm not sure if I can wear it right.
You can pair it with its opposite color blue.
Even find an accessory that combines both.
So cool.
Ties it all together,
and you don't have to worry about it
being a good color or a bad color.
It just looks great.
Ohh, you look like you're ready.
Go to the pumpkin patch. I love. So cute.
This whole outfit is from Talbots.
Really affordable.
Everything under $100. Love Talbots.
It's got some good stuff.
I was surprised yesterday
when I went to sales, too.
Yes, right. Thank you so much.
You look fabulous. Go get a.
We should have.
We should be drinking pumpkin spice lattes.
Yeah, I was thinking like yes.
Bill #3 sharpen up your autumn
look with black and white.
Some people tell me that they don't
like autumn because it's too muted.
Like the the autumn color palette.
It's too muted,
it's too many Browns,
and they sort of prefer something edgier,
like black and white.
OK, but I think these two
concepts can go together.
So our model here is wearing a base
outfit of kind of black and white.
Yeah,
and then we put a brown wool jacket over it.
Overall,
I think the look is more
edgy than maybe cozy,
which maybe speaks to some of our.
Of course,
I like you wearing leather pants too,
that I'm wearing leather pants.
That is a coated denim,
so looks like they're by good American.
They are awesome because they're stretchy and
they're not quite as sweaty and they yeah,
these feel really comfortable.
I love how you've mixed so
many different patterns here.
I would have never in a million
years thought to put a like a a Plaid
shirt over a striped T-shirt and
then add a houndstooth purse to it,
something we see a lot in autumn.
Are these kind of wool jackets?
With like a tartan pattern or like a hound
and you feel like you have to wear a solid.
Yes, and you don't.
But you do not. You do not.
Well, thank you for teaching me that today.
I appreciate you.
Alright, thank you so much.
You look fabulous. Alright.
Model #4 accessorized with hard to wear,
huge. So if there is a color that you like,
maybe it's a burgundy,
maybe it's an orange,
maybe it's the yellow again.
You can use it as an accessory to
your outfit as opposed to maybe
like the main part of your outfit,
which would be the shirt.
And the gene.
So we put her just in a great blouse.
We put her in a cool pair of trouser jeans,
which are kind of like the
Jean of the season.
And then we popped it with
the autumn hue of Burgundy.
We've got a sweater and we
did just a little purse.
And, you know,
purses can really do a lot to an outfit.
I agree, if there is a color that you love,
but you don't know how to wear it,
or you think you can't wear
it or it's maybe too bold,
think about it to be your purse.
Color. And then you basically
get to wear it every day.
I love that. Yeah. Thank you.
You look great. I tell you,
if I saw you on the street, I'd say stop.
I love it. You look gorgeous.
Looks. It's so easy, too.
That's.
We just don't want anyone to be
afraid to try.
We got about 30 seconds left.
What else do we need to keep in
mind when dressing for the fall?
Especially going to take those pumpkin Patch,
patch, patch.
I mean,
you're gonna see fall colors everywhere,
so it's not like you have to try to
shop for these things in the store.
You pretty much walk in any store
and they're gonna be there for you.
If you see a color,
you don't know if it will look good on you.
You should absolutely try it.
I love it. Take risks.
Darcy, thank you so much.
I've learned a lot today.
I got more questions about jeans,
though,
so don't go anywhere but.
