The Resale Rundown: Every Cool Fall Item I Spotted During Fashion Week in NYC

Fashion week in NYC adds a buzz to the air that I can’t explain. The frenetic energy of people running around town in the most original outfits I’ve ever seen is a peak New York experience. While many are tuned in to the runways, I pay attention to the street-style moments that tease fall’s biggest trends. It may have felt like summer, but the fashion set was dressed for crisp autumn weather, donning barn coats, leopard-print accessories, and the season’s trendiest sneakers. Of course, I ran straight to eBay to copy all the looks I spotted. Buying resale is my way of scoring items that may quickly sell out on other retailers, and eBay’s Authenticity Guarantee service ensures that what I’m investing in is the real thing. A team of experts inspects each and every item before it makes its way to my doorstep. To shop all the fall trends I spotted during fashion week, read the story below.

I’d argue that the best part of fall is the light outerwear you get to wear for approximately two months before it’s time to break out the puffer jacket. Barn coats made a brief appearance last spring, but this season, they’re back and bigger than ever. A more obvious fall outerwear option is a brown suede blazer. I love the rich color and texture that it adds to my outfits. Style it with a white slip dress, ballet flats, and an oxblood shoulder bag, and you’ll have the perfect on-trend outfit. Last but not least, leopard print is here to stay. Yes, wearing leopard-print outerwear is a bold choice, but it’s chic nonetheless.

The thing I admire most about New Yorkers is how casually cool everyone dresses. Much like the effortless style of the European fashion set, these city-dwellers know how to look put-together while staying comfortable on their commutes. It’s been refreshing to see this pattern play out during fashion week. Stilettos are being replaced with sneakers and accessories have a certain edge to them (think studs and smaller-framed sunglasses). Whether you’re looking for a unique accessory or a vintage designer piece, eBay has the coolest finds on the market.

If I put you on to one thing, let it be eBay Authenticity Guarantee’s vintage and designer bags. As much as I love the physical adventure of scouting these bags in consignment stores, it’s so much more satisfying to search for them from the comfort of my couch. This is exactly what I did to find the following five bags. Brown suede handbags, studded totes, mini red shoulder bags, and the East-West silhouette that’s currently sweeping the nation can be found below.
