Believe it or not, this summer heat and heavy humidity will break soon enough, leaving us with sweater weather, hot (never iced!) coffee and, of course, our favorite fall jackets. But before you clear out your sundresses in favor of riding boots, take note of these four trends that are sure to be defining this upcoming autumn season!

Nordstrom

Leather Everything

Take a cue from your favorite rock star or the stereotypical biker gang for this trend. To rock it, think beyond the traditional jacket and expect vests, pants, and patent embellishments to take over this season.
