Fall has officially arrived, at least according to the calendar and all the ginormous September fashion magazines! I’m seriously tired of my spring and summer clothes and can’t wait to pull out my sweaters (albeit cotton ones!), pants and boots. For the most part, I’ll wear what I wore last year and the year before that, but I also like to add a touch of what’s new this season.
Photos I post here are often of the designer type, only because that’s what shown on runways. But, don’t panic! Keep in mind that these trends can be found duplicated in department stores and even discount stores coast-to-coast. You don’t have to spend a pretty penny on something as frivolous as pink fur or silver oxford shoes and as I’ve blogged many times before, I don’t recommend doing so! Also keep in mind that these new items, in my mind, are meant to go along with the tried and true classics: little black dresses, cashmere, riding boots, pashminas, etc. Let’s not totally reinvent the fashion wheel!
So here’s my “September issue” of what’s hot this fall. Let me know whether you love it, or just as soon leave it! Have fun!
