Fall Fashion Trends

Fall is around the corner. Let's take a look at what the predicted fashion trends will be.

Military Chic:

Personally, I love the military style. It makes its come backs from time to time, that is why a dress or a suite in military style is a really good investment for a fashionista. This season the look is often paired with studded or patent leather accessories.

Lacquered Leather:

Glossy leather coats, shiny skirts, and lacquered separates were spotted at Fall 2012 Fashion Shows. Laminated finish could be present in your wardrobe in the form of a purse or a jacket .

Patterns & Prints:

Geometrics, lacy latticework and colorful prints were found aplenty. Both the clothing and accessories were structured and embellished. You're going to be hearing a lot about head-to-toe florals for the next few months. You'll probably have mixed feelings about it but one thing you'll definitely like is the floral print heel trend.



Wine Colored Everything:

Coats, dresses, sweater, anything! Since deep burgundy was the only hue used in Alexander Wang's collection, you know it's going to be Major this season.
It's pretty safe to say that the burgundy coat will be the black coat of fall 2012

Statement Collars:

 

They're a super simple way to make anything you're wearing look a bit more polished, especially when the collar color pops out against the shirt.


Gold Rush:

Very chic and luxurious. There are ways to take the golden color trend and make it work for you. Try it in some cocktail or party outfits.

Giuseppe Zanotti Platforms

I am loving these Giuseppe Zanotti Platform Bow Sandals! They look so fun and bright. However, $895... not so much.

Jennifer Hudson's look is just perfect.

Endless.com has a couple variations of these lovely platforms.

Luichiny Rest-Up Platform are available for $89.95

Dollhouse Flaunt Platform Sandals are available for $38.75

and

Liliana Paulette 3 Ankle Strap Sandal are available for $38

Go have your pick!



Wrist Ornaments

Layering Bracelets

I really like the layering bracelets trend. It's like organized chaos?!?! The key to making this look work with your outfit is to choose a color in your outfit you want to highlight. 

*If you’re wearing mostly neutral hues, you’ll probably want to steer more towards earthy tones. Earthy tone accessories go well with corals, orange, yellow, brown, grey, denim and any prints that consist of any of those colors.

*Try mixing and matching different materials like leather, enamel, metal and rope.

*If your outfit consists of bolder colors, like: red, pink, blue or black. You may want to consider more silver or gunmetal tone pieces.

*The easiest way to layer bracelets is to layer with a watch from the same color family, along with a couple statement rings.



Have fun with it!





Designer Sunglasses style FOR LESS!

These Prada Minimal Baroque Sunglasses have been a hit this summer. Celebrities like Eva Mendes and Rihanna have been spotted wearing these daring  hater blockers. But, who really wants to pay the $290 price tag for a pair you are only going to wear this season?

Here are some LOOK-A-LIKE for LESS:

Sunglass Warehouse has these for only $16.11 in a Black or Brown frame.

And get this,

Amazon has the best deal!  $7.99

So, there is no excuse not to look fabulous at these prices.

Great Skin ... SALAD!

Here's a secret to great skin! 

 Bitter green salad or arugula salad topped with: berries, grapefruit, orange, avocados, bell peppers, cucumber, tuna, beets, avocado oil, and apple cider vinegar.

The live veggies and natural sugars from the fruit will give you more energy than the a cupcake that's for sure without the downfall of added calories and fat!
