As your tans start to fade and your pedicures become less frequent don't let the start of the Fall season get you down!! There is much to look forward to over the next few months besides hay-rides and football! Fall fashion is looking very daring! Granted many of these looks have transcended their way from last year, but that works for us in terms of recycling a few trends that were late out of the Winter gates.
One such trend is the sheer fabric we saw on tops and dresses late last Winter into early Spring. This is a great look for the weekend and after-work. Very fun, very sexy, and very 2010. Best in black or neutral tones, sheer fabrics provide for a hot transition from Summer to Fall fashion.
Romantic ruffles are still around. Unexpected color palettes are updating this look that has most recently been seen in soft pastels for the Fall. Think of your baby purple Summer nail polish meeting tiered free-flowing rows of chiffon ruffles in the form of a pencil skirt a la Valentino (too much to imagine? see the pic below). Aside from the updated palettes, it is Fall, and red and black are always acceptable ;)
Another trend I would love to note are the "smoky" neutral shades that are plentiful and abundant in pretty much every retailer across the country at every possible price point and in every possible silhouette... how's that for accessible and affordable fashion? Say that 3 times fast!
