4 Fall Style Starter Packs This TikTok Personality Shops At Nike
Vienna Skye breaks down her favorite aesthetics to wear right now.
Fall’s total vibe shift offers the perfect opportunity to experiment with your wardrobe — and even go an extra step by being more adventurous with your clothing than ever before. If you’ve ever been curious about leaning into specific style aesthetics (any secret goths in the house?), then now is the time to dive head-first into a new look — or four. Lucky for you, TikTok fashion queen Vienna Skye is trying out some microtrends herself, and the looks offer major dressing inspo for the season ahead. For fans of the goth girl, gorpcore, bloke core, and coquette looks, ahead are the style starter packs to outfit your next fashion adventure.
To source the best pieces for this sartorial session, Skye turned to Nike. You might first wonder how the iconic sportswear brand can help summon, say, the romantic vintage vibes of coquette-core, but Skye found pretty pastel options in Nike’s line that fit perfectly. She also loves the layering possibilities that fall delivers, which is something that Nike excels at, too (aka, offering thoughtfully designed looks that move with you, no matter where your fall moves take you). See how Skye transforms into the four fall aesthetics using her Nike faves below.
1. Level Up With Goth Girl
Goth style isn’t limited to just black lace and patent leather, you can summon the dark macabre with a black crew neck crop top and Air VaporMax Plus. (Especially if you’re feeling a Health Goth look.) Skye calls herself a “recovering emo kid” and grew up loving goth styles, which is something she’s embracing again. “Although my style has evolved since then, I find myself leaning toward the resurgence of this trend,” says Skye. “I adapted the goth trend to be super wearable with this all-black Nike look.”
2. Go For Gorpcore
Gorpcore is all about living that life on the hiking trail, so sporty, utilitarian pieces seem easy-peasy. But Skye put together a look that’s an elevated version of a hiking-friendly look, one that incorporates Nike’s chic reversible utility vest. “This is such a cool and functional piece on its own, but it also looks trendy when layered with a crewneck,” she says. “Gorpcore is an epic trend because it is so functional and wearable.”
3. Have A Field Day in Blokecore
Skye has a soft spot for Blokecore, which celebrates all things British football. “My mum is from England, so I grew up visiting there every summer and I have always been so inspired by the street style there,” she says. She paid homage by teaming a Nike swoosh jacket and shorts with a pair of classic Nike Cortez sneakers. “You can’t go wrong with an oversized Nike zip-up and baggy shorts to be on trend with Blokecore!” she says.
4. Embrace Your Inner Coquette
Pastel colors and feminine silhouettes are an easy way to incorporate coquette style into your fall wardrobe. “I knew I wanted to style a pastel pink piece into my Nike look,” says Skye, “so I chose the Air VaporMax 2023 Flyknit.” Skye added in Nike’s loose-fitted woven skirt with bungee details and a romantic crop top to finish the look.
