Scrolling with a Purpose: Fashion inspo!

As we know everyone's social media feed is individually personalized to ones taste (All thanks to those lovely cookies we reluctantly accept). Mine is totally different from yours, your best friend’s, your sibling’s, and even your mom’s! You probably think mine is like — super cool and you’re totally right. It’s got a little bit of everything: must-see NYC spots, matcha tutorials, bullet journal ideas, “Day in my life” videos, storytimes, funny videos, edits, and of course, a lot of fashion inspo, etc.

Lately, though, I haven’t been seeing much fashion content on my feed, so finding outfit inspiration has been a challenge. But this week, I gave my doom-scrolling a mission: not just to melt my brain, but to uncover a killer fashion story, too. Mission accomplished!

It took me a while to round up these TikToks, but I finally did it! Three of my recent faves from my FYP were an OOTD (Outfit of the Day), some fall outfit inspo, and a prediction for fall shoe trends. 

I’m always here for a good OOTD when it pops up on my feed. Not only does it give me fresh ideas, but it also gets me thinking about current trends and has me daydreaming about clothes I wish I had. This one in particular was so cute! The person styled an apple graphic tee with a long denim skirt and black ballet flats with bows and a little heel. They paired it with a green leather tote and a brown belt with a silver buckle, and even wore their hair up with face-framing pieces out. 

Why do I love a simple OOTD? Because it's so relatable! It makes me think, "Wow, this person really loves their fit" blah blah blah. Plus, they even linked the shirt in the caption—they know the people will love it. Posts like this always draw me in and make me feel like, yeah, I could totally rock that look too. Or at least something similar. 

This next post is a total lifesaver for those days when I’m stuck in an outfit rut: fall fashion inspo! I love TikToks like this because it’s basically a "flip book" of outfits—so easy to swipe through and get ideas I can recreate from my own closet when my brain is running on empty. Plus, they used "Duvet" by Bôa as the background track, which is such a perfect fall vibe.

The outfits I’m featuring here are absolutely adorable! They range from a cute miniskirt look to stylish capris and an asymmetrical midi skirt.

The TikTok features 13 slides with 3 outfits each, so that’s a whole 39 outfits to get inspired by. Absolute perfection!

The last TikTok I want to highlight is another "flipbook"-style, super vibey post. The title immediately caught my eye: "Shoe Trend Predictions for Fall and Winter." Naturally, I’m thinking, What shoes do I need to add to my already massive collection? And sure enough, there were some adorable trends for the upcoming season!

As I swiped through, I saw lace-up boots with a bunch of cute options, heels paired with legwarmers, studded shoes, olive green-colored footwear, suede boots, and finally, leather sneakers. That’s six shoe trends for Fall/Winter 2024! The best part? Each trend was beautifully displayed on Vogue-style stationery paper, which added such a chic touch. I love a good trend prediction!

And that’s a wrap! I just wanted to share what popped up on my feed this week. If you’re looking for some fall inspo, here are the links to the TikToks I mentioned—happy scrolling!
