The Trend: Tracksuits

No longer reserved for athletes, tracksuits are now staples in every fashion-forward wardrobe. Quickly adopted for its comfort and practicality, the humble sweatsuit is a mainstay of the street style scene. Stylesetters zoosh up the athletic outfit with jewelry, collared tops and statement shoes.

Trend Overlap: Pink + Tracksuits

Millennial Pink will be sticking around for a little while. Not complaining, though. The pastel hue adds a feminine softness to athletic tracksuits.

The Trend: Pink

A pink pantsuit paired with stark white sneakers is a match made in comfort heaven. For fall, a pink statement coat will tremendously elevate an outfit.

Trend Overlap: Pink + Yellow

The key to wearing two (or three) trends at once without looking like a try-hard? Subtly and simplicity. Here, a bright yellow long sleeve shirt, pale pink tulle midi skirt and block heel sandals with chunky socks make a statement without looking forced.

Trend Overlap: Pink + Yellow

Go for the unexpected when mixing trends. A salmon pink ruffled blouse steers clear of girly territory when paired with baggy jeans, bright yellow booties and fishnet socks.

The Trend: Yellow

They're back! A corduroy overall dress looks of-the-moment in this bright yellow color. Want to try it at home? Skip the choker so as not to go too literal '90s with it.

The Trend: Yellow

Do NOT put away white denim after Labor Day. A mustard yellow sweater adds a fall feel to summery denim skirts.

The Trend: Yellow

Yellow makes another appearance here, although, in a much more subtle way. This matching, floral(!) jacket and skirt ensemble stays modern and fresh thanks to block-heel white boots.

The Trend: Yellow

If lemony hues feel too intimidating, try out the color trend through accessories, like a mini bag. Bonus points for wearing yellow and burgundy (another trendy fall color) together!

Trend Overlap: Prints + Yellow

Just a hint of the ubiquitous yellow pops against a neutral outfit. Loose leopard print pants look effortless and perfectly styled at the same time.

Florals will be everywhere this fall. Try them on looser silhouettes, like pajama-inspired sets and wrap dresses. (Psst, notice the yellow sunglasses?)

Trend Overlap: Prints + Comfy Shoes

Stilettos are a thing of the past. The Danes, as well as the rest of the fashion world, have embraced sneakers, flip flops and Birkenstocks with open arms. Here, thick-soled black boots give a tomboy edge to this floral maxi dress.

Trend Overlap: Prints + Comfy Shoes

Florals are popping up all over the streets of Copenhagen, on skirts, dresses and jumpsuits. Sneakers and flip flops keep these two looks casual and comfortable.

Trend Overlap: Prints + Comfy Shoes

Prepare for a season of "ugly" shoes worn with pretty dresses.

Trend Overlap: Prints + Comfy Shoes

Polka dot prints of all sizes and colors feel very "now," especially when worn with chunky sneakers.

The Trend: Prints

Break up an all-over print with a simple white tee layered underneath. Props for using a little outfit ingenuity to re-wear a formal dress in a casual way.

Trend Overlap: Plaid + Comfy Shoes

Sneakers strike again — this time dressing down a silky wrap dress. To the left is plaid print-mixing done right.

Trend Overlap: Blazer + Comfy Shoes + Plaid

For those transitional weather days, lean on outfit formulas like this one: chunky sandals, plaid skirts and structured blazers.

The Trend: Plaid

Gingham had a moment over the summer and continues to make appearances into fall on the fashionable ladies of Copenhagen.

Trend Overlap: Yellow + Blazer + Plaid

Master multiple trends at once with a golden blazer or a gingham top and yellow skirt combo.

The Trend: Blazer

A teeny tiny floral bralette doesn't feel so risque when worn with a boxy blazer and wide-leg jeans.
