What Is Rustic Style Fashion?

Rustic Fall

Rustic Fall by theclosetbychristie featuring a stretch bracelet

Although I’m by no means from the country, I love rustic style for the Fall season. It’s known as country-inspired but more specifically, it’s simple yet charming. Pertaining to furniture you may find unfinished wood or textured surfaces, exposed brick, or wheelbarrow decor. For fashion, the color palette plays a large role. You may see smokey greys, deep greens, and Fall foliage colors like orange, red, and brown. A few styles may include plaid, tweed, and elbow-patches. It’s very Fall!
In the above set, I featured a rustic style look. I paired a chocolate Roberto Collina rolled neck top with a grey and orange Marni tweed wool pencil skirt and a grey Twenty Three herringbone blazer. This look is the epitome of rustic. Everything from the colors to the fabrics fit the style perfectly. I accessorized with chocolate suede and sweater ankle booties and a rust and brown Madewell vintage-style lovelock tote. I love the combination of fabrics on the ankle booties! It makes them look so cozy and unique. For jewelry, I chose a gold bird pendant necklace from Barneys, bronze Janis Savitt flower stud earrings, and a brown Forever 21 stretch bracelet.
