- Power Clashing - What is Power Clashing you say?? Well, thanks to Tom Haverford of Parks and Recreation (if you haven't watched this show I suggest you do! It is hysterical!) and the fact that my boyfriend can quote every line from his favorite TV shows, Power Clashing is a term derived for mixing prints on your shirts and ties. For example, wearing a navy striped tie over a red plaid shirt. You've got to be BOLD to rock this trend! Don't be afraid to get a little crazy with the mixed patterns!
- Cardigans - Cardigans have recently made a small turn around in the past colder seasons and this Fall they are definitely coming back! They are the perfect alternative to a hoodie when you need to look more presentable or stylish! We love them casual with a plain T or striped tank underneath or with a button-up and skinny tie! Which leads to our next trend...
- Skinny Ties - A more fashionable and everyday wearable alternative to the usual tie. Skinny ties can take your outfit from day straight into the night. We love them with a button up alone or with the addition of a cardigan or blazer! Love the preppiness!
- Booties - Booties have been around for a while now, but they're not going anywhere! Thank goodness!! Booties have the greatest ability to transition from day to night and casual to dressy with ease! This pair we just got in from Nine West are definitely going to be a staple in my closet for this fall season! They go with denim (retro flares or skinnies) dresses, shorts, you name it!!
- Leather - This trend can seem a little questionable if you're going outside of boots and jackets, but let me tell you...leather shorts have never looked so good!!! To be careful of making them look too Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, nix the tall boots and pair them with booties or heels! You can make leather look feminine or rocker in the blink of an eye! Its all about accessorizing! Take this leather dress to its edgiest with these suede Steve Madden wedges and add some structured jewelry like this studded bracelet!
- Retro-Inspired - I'm absolutely loving this 70's comeback! Retro flares are so hot paired with heels or "flat-forms", which are extremely retro I must add!! Expect to wedge sandal flat-forms worn with socks. Another big development will be floppy boho hats! This summer brought the return of the sun hat and with the cooler months approaching textures will move from woven to felt! So Nicole Richie!!!
