Fall Fashion Trends - Update that wardrobe!

Fall fashion is always an exciting topic for me. While I am not going to break the bank and buy a new wardrobe each season, I will splurge on a few pieces to carry me through.

COLOR - When it comes to colors this Fall different shades of Blues, Reds, and Purples are the way to go. Blues with purple undertones, combinations of purples and reds, burnt orange, mossy green, brownish pink, pale mustard tones, dingy grays are all part of this season's color pallet.

LAYERS - Flowing tops over skinny/form fitting bottoms continues to be a trend this Fall. Three must have items: lean black pant, the pencil skirt, and a comfortable pair of leggings. Couple any of these with a loose fitting top (length is key) and you have a sure winner. Not everyone can wear the dreaded "skinny jean" or "legging" for that matter. Not to worry the wide leg pant is not going anywhere. Be sure to use a tighter fitting top with the wide leg so to not achieve a frumpy look.

Make sure to stop on by for me next topic: polishing these looks with the right shoes, bags, and jewelery.
