Fall 2021 fashion trends

The beginning of fall means it’s time to find warm and cozy pieces to add to your seasonal wardrobe. For the trend-conscious buyer, however, purchasing seasonal pieces that adhere to current fashion trends usually comes with the harmful practices of overconsumption and fast fashion.
