With all this back to school talk and summer lovin' coming to an end, here are 5 Fall Fashion Trends to tide you over until we are back into the double digits here in Phoenix. I hate to use the word trend. (Trendy always
brings to mind fast fashion that’s over before you wear
the item twice.) You can, however, take a
trend and make it yours... Transforming it into something timeless. With that in mind,
the following are the big ideas for Fall 2015. Some might not seem new, but are becoming classics and keep hanging
around season after season. Try one or two and see if they will become your new
wardrobe staples.
1) The
Flare Jean
These are universally
flattering. The flare at the bottom
lengthens the leg and gives you instant curves. You can pick the rise you like best: Low, Mid, or High. Wear them distressed, with frayed ends, or in
dark indigo for a dressier look. You can tailor the length to wear with flats, heels, or platforms. Every woman should own at least 1 pair….if
not many!
2) The
Pencil Skirt
I know the images of
Mad Men come to mind when you think of the pencil skirt. They aren’t just for the office anymore. Dress them up with heels, dress them down
with simple sneakers or flat sandals. The length is up to you. Tees and tanks, silk blouses and
sweaters for Fall. Layer a long cardigan
over a tank and knit pencil skirt with boots…and a scarf for the finishing
touch. Feminine and classic.
3) The
Belt
This accessory is
often under utilized. A belt can create
an instant waist! It can be worn low,
high, doubled, wrapped and tied, or loosely draped. You can take an old jacket and give it new
life with a belt. Wide or thin, with
gold or silver buckles - update any look with an amazing belt.
4) The
Ankle Boot
The ankle boot has
been revamped for Fall 2015. The short
block heel is in. Add this boot to the
others in your closet for a complete boot wardrobe. The block heel looks amazing with your pencil
skirt and flare jeans. Keep it
classic in either black, brown, gray, or if you can find it, a perfect
navy.
5) Gray
and Navy
This pairing is as elegant
and classic as you can get. Nothing
looks as crisp and clean as gray and navy together. Think dark indigo denim with a lightweight
gray cashmere sweater. A gray and navy
plaid scarf. A navy velvet blazer with a
heather gray tee - gorgeous.
