Romantic Blouses
Romance is back in a big way this fall. Look for romantic blouses featuring flowing ruffles, pleats or lace. A white romantic blouse can be worn with a business suit, skinny pants or a pencil skirt. Add pearl earrings and framed handbag to complete the romantic look. If you’d like to be a smidgen more daring don’t be scared to infuse some color into your look. The easiest way is try a bold color blouses – rich purples, blue & gold tones make for some great statements.
Top-Handle Handbags
Handbags with dual top-handles are very popular right now. Select a glossy patent leather bag that is roomy but not oversized. Purple is the hottest color of the season. However, if you want to use this as your everyday bag, choose black or brown instead for versatility. Don’t forget you can always play up your bag, by its details. Try roughening it up with studs they are fun & make a lasting impression.
Suede Booties
Short ankle boots are everywhere you turn this season. Pick a pair of suede booties in a neutral color such as charcoal grey or chocolate brown. Choose from high heeled oxfords, peep-toe styles or pleated booties for some texture. Sling back booties are also on the rage; wear them from the office to a night on the town.
Statement Jewelry
Bold jewelry is hot right now. Chunky cuff bracelets, sparkling cocktail rings and statement necklaces are all fantastic choices. You don't need to spend a fortune on jewelry. Pick up a necklace from your local thrift shop, or buy costume jewelry. Select a large pendant in a bright color, or a multi-strand necklace with chunky beads or colorful gemstones. Patience can be a virtue when hunting for that perfect piece though. Be sure you find something that you’ll wear over again, that doesn’t have a cheap look or feel too it.
Boyfriend Cardigan
You know that comfy, long cardigan sweater that you borrow from your boyfriend or dad? Well this fall, it's one of the hottest trends of the season. Pair a boyfriend cardigan with everything from your favorite pair of jeans to a pencil skirt. For work, belt a grey, cashmere cardigan over a slim black dress. Add a pair of high heel suede oxfords and you've got a great menswear-inspired look that will never get old. For travel days, match the same cardigan with denim capris & long sleeve shirt, be sure to roll the sleeves for a more relaxed look.
