If you’ve been maniacally wearing your favorite colorful skinny jeans every single day, dejectedly preparing yourself for the day when it’s officially time to retire all your favorite spring and summer fare in favor of more fall-festive attire, I’ve got some good news for you. Colorful pants aren’t necessarily “out” next season – in fact, they’re very much still “in” – they’re just getting some autumn-appropriate adjustments in the form of colorful cords! Skinny corduroys are undoubtedly a cozier, cooler-weather alternative to your favorite tried-and-true denim, so consider these puppies a very stylish transition piece that brings all the fun of your favorite summer brights and makes them perfect for the chillier season ahead. Not ready to give up those neons? No problem! Looking for something with a decidedly more fall-appropriate feel? Try jewel tones that add plenty of seasonal pep. No matter which shade suits your fancy, you’d be missing out without stocking up on some colorful cords for fall!
