10 Fall 2023 Colors to Wear to Manifest Your Goals

March 2024 · 4 minute read

Incorporating rich new colors into your wardrobe signals the beginning of fall fashion — but it can also be a way to bring new energy into your life. Color magic uses the energy of colors to invoke to conjure up your own powerful response. According to Lisa Stardust, a New York City-based astrologer and writer, wearing certain colors can bring in and exert out energy, and knowing the meaning of the color can help set your intentions in place for what you want to bring in.

And luckily, some of this fall’s trending colors, from digital lavender to chocolate brown, are aligned with some common goals you may be looking to manifest by the end of the year. So how exactly does this color-coded manifestation work? According to Stardust, you simply say what you desire while getting dressed or looking in the mirror to make your dreams a reality, and then make sure to incorporate the color specific to your manifestation into your outfit, whether it’s in a small pop of color or a head-to-toe monochrome look. The power lies in the intention and the manifestation, not the amount of color.

Read on for how to make fall's biggest color trends work for the intentions you’re setting in the months ahead. Who knew manifesting could look this good?

Earthy tones are a perennial fall favorite, and this year, we’re adding shades of terracotta into the mix for some rustic warmth. Wearing the color clay brings a sense of renewal and all sorts of awakenings from the soul, so if you’re looking to spark some creativity or turn over a new leaf in your life, it’s the hue for you.

From evening gowns to outerwear, designers are sticking to the ice blue trend for another season. This is great news if you need to have a big talk in your romantic relationship or with a friend. Stardust advises you to wear the shade if you’re wanting to have an intimate conversation with others, because it’ll allow you to speak without inhibitions and have an open mind.

Heating up the runways with its fiery touch, red is the bold shade of fall 2023. Consider wearing a pop of the hot color for a big meeting or job interview; in addition to good fortune and abundance, wearing this intense red also brings power, confidence, and positivity into your universe.

Trend forecasting website WSGN and its sister company Coloro named “digital lavender” as 2023’s color of the year, and the lavender haze is still going strong for fall. Lavender is connected to the crown chakra, says Stardust, so wearing this color can bring serenity, calmness, and spirituality into your life. Take a deep breath, set your intention, and throw on a lilac look when you’re facing a stressful situation and need to manifest some peace.

Following digital lavender, “apricot crush” was named color of the year for 2024, and its influence is already showing this autumn. This is a great transitional color that represents passion, according to Stardust, and it’s excellent to wear on a date if you’re looking to level up your relationship.

The Barbiecore influence is still going strong, but this softer shade of pink is the updated version for fall. If you’re looking to add balance to your life, powder pink can help you find the equilibrium and structure you crave.

Another color in the 2024 forecast that’s already showing its power in fall 2023 is cobalt blue. The jewel tone was seen on designer runways from Chanel to Altuzarra. This regal color can manifest all kinds of benefits into your life: It can soothe moods and help bring riches into your life — two things pretty much all of us would welcome.

Olive oil is having a moment, and its green shade is having one in fashion right along with it. Consider wearing this color if you need to resolve a conflict — according to Stardust, this shade of green brings harmony and peaceful sentiments and allows you to be empathetic and compassionate.

Bright, cheerful yellow is adding an acidic punch to our wardrobes this season. Not only does the citrusy shade bring cheer and happiness to everyone in your orbit, it’s also the perfect color to wear when you’re trying to change minds and get your way (hint, hint).
