Mykonos Blue
Lichen Green
Lichen green is fall’s hottest neutral and lends itself to a military-chic vibe. That's why camo is also popular. Whether it's light or dark lichen green, both can also have a bit of a rocker feel. Pairing it with cream and lighter colors will make it a bit more feminine.
To buy: 1. Rockstar Zip-Pocket Pants, $35; 2. Leather Wallet, $98; 3. Easy Camo Tote, $88; 4. Embellished Shirt Jacket, $45
Koi
Warm shades of orange are always welcome in the fall, and this year’s orange is bright and beautiful, much like a sunset. Whether you want to accentuate an outfit with a statement piece of jewelry, shoes or handbag, koi will certainly add a burst of color. Romantic blouses like this one from Banana Republic will easily take you from day to night.

Acai Berry
The rich berry colors of fall are warm and luxurious, and acai looks good on most everyone. Gap's pointy-toed shoes are hitting three trends in one—with the color, those sharp pointy toes and color blocking—which makes them a must-have for fall. The sleeveless top from Target has a bit of edge with the leather trim, which is also very on trend.
To buy: 1. Empire Waist Dress, $118; 2. Sleeveless Blouse With Faux Leather Trim, $20; 3. Quilted Crossbody Bag, $56; 4. Cap-Toe Pointy Flats, $45
Samba
Samba is the brightest color for fall and is similar to a bright cherry red. But since red is a loud color, be sure to limit the number of red accessories in one outfit. ModCloth's vegan leather carryall makes a huge statement, while the ballet flats can add just a splash of color needed to complete a look. The short-sleeved dress from J.C.Penney is perfect for a mom who's heading to a meeting. Pair it with flats during the day and heels at night.
To buy: 1. Short-Sleeve Dress, $40; 2. Teardrop Bib Necklace, $17; 3. Leather Ballet Flats, $40; 4. Vegan Leather Carryall, $55
Teal
Shades of blue and green are defintiely sharing the spotlight. This V-neck dress is elegant, simple but very versatile and can work for many occasions. The Banana Republic scarf touches on the animal-print trend, while the mini tote bag from Piperlime is both polished and professional.
To buy: 1. V-Neck Sheath Dress, $75; 2. Reign Forest Bracelet, $20; 3. Animal Print Scarf, $50; 4. Mini Crossbody Tote Bag, $78
Emerald
Pantone named emerald the 2013 color of the year, so it’s no wonder it's still hanging around for fall. After all, this beautiful green has a certain energy about it. The striped scarf from Stella & Dot keeps things bright this fall, and ModCloth's structured handbag is modern yet sophisticated.
To buy: 1. Short-Sleeve Pleated Dress, $130; 2. Statement Necklace, $17; 3. Daydream Bag, $65; 4. Striped Scarf, $59
