What's old is new again when it comes to the big fashion trends for fall, according to Kahlana Barfield Brown, the fashion and beauty editor-at-large for InStyle magazine. Some of the items coming back in style this season may have been in your closet back in high school, or things your parents may have even worn back in the day, but with a new modern twist for 2018.

Barfield Brown visited "Good Morning America" and picked out three different looks for anyone who wants to try fall's top trends. Get links where you can shop the look below.

Look 1: The 80s are back

Color and sparkle is a huge trend we're going to see everywhere, according to Brown. Think of Madonna in the 80s with lots of pink, splashy sequins and colored animal prints.
