3 fall 2011 favorites

I'm a Spring/Summer kind of girl, but I'm excited about Fall/Winter for the

first time in a long time. The trends below are the reasons why! :)

ANIMAL PRINT

Animal print is a classic that keeps coming back, and this fall it's a strong trend in women's
wear. It's a simple way to add some sex appeal to your looks. Below are every day looks
you can use to be a part of this trend.

Tip: Keep it down to one animal print in your outfit.

These shoes(Giuseppe Zanotti) would look great with jeans or leggings and a silk
 cami or blouse in black or ivory. (Check out Aldo and Steve Madden for styles
like this one)

Keep your accessories simple as well.
An animal print is very BOLD and it should be the statement
piece in your look, so keep everything else to a minimum.

The dress is from BCBG and although it's sexy, you can take it
from the office to a night out.

The blouse is BCBG. Roll up the sleeves and tuck it into
your jeans or a black high waisted skirt and you have
another look. Keep the shoes black or nude.

This skirt is BCBG and it's also a classy piece you can wear
to the office or a night out with the girls. Wear a cami and blazer
for work and some black or nude sexy heels for night time.

BRIGHT COLORS

I LOVE this trend. The idea of color for fall is brilliant. Below are
different color combinations that work! A colored jean is a big trend
right now. I love a royal blue, red, or green pair of skinnies.

These below are Jbrand and a little pricey, but the fit is incredible. Zara
also offered these in their collection. The blouses are from alice+olivia to
Forever 21, so this look can be very affordable, yet you will look trendy and
like a million bucks!

DOTS

I'm so happy this trend is back. I love the 40's and 50's and I think the Pin Up
look is one of the sexiest looks women have had, while remaining classy and mysterious.
This is exactly what dots remind me of, it has a retro glamorous feeling that makes
 me want to paint my lips red and throw on my red pumps!

These blouses are both from Zara. They are super chic
and versatile and can be worn with jeans, trousers,
skirts, even a pair of some cute black shorts with black
stockings for the winter!

The dress is from Anthropology and I love the silhouette.

And these TOMS are so adorable! I would even wear them with cropped
skinnies, a feminine little blouse and red lips to dress them up a bit.

BTW, get creative with your looks and your budget. For example,
the BCBG animal print blouse is about $200, which is a lot!
So google "animal print blouses" and you might get a deal from forever 21,
 or any other more affordable brand. It's all about getting creative and
there is nothing sweeter than a good deal with a hot trend!
XOXOXO!!!
