2010 Fall Fashion Must Haves

I love the fall, it has to be my favorite time of the year. Football games, chili, the leaves changing, a cooler weather, spending time with family, and the beginning of the holiday season. This fall some of the things in fashion from summer will carry over like military inspired, lace, and skinny jeans. Other things that will be hot this year are menswear, metal tones, animal prints, jewel tones, such as eggplant, cranberry, camel, navy, and moss green. Leggings are still going to be popular, and day time sparkle in small doses. For these more trendy items I would suggest shopping T.J. Max they always have unique pieces that are priced good. Target is also a good place to look. All of the pieces that I have listed below are 25 dollars or less.

  • For the military look I would go with a jacket with brass buttons. Cargo pants are another good way to go, skinny cargo's are really cute. Outfit Idea: Military jacket, a lace top, jeans, and boots.


  • Lots of feminine textures are in such as lace, ruffles, and beading. These things should be on tops or accessories. No beaded skirts. lol Keep it pretty simple on  the bottom if you are going to do a heavily embellished top. Outfit Idea: Cargo pants, a lace top, a cardigan, and metallic flats.


  • Skinny jeans, and leggings are both something I didn't think that I would ever like but I love them now. I have a pair of "jeggings" they are the most comfortable jeans that I own. Go with a dark wash unless you have really skinny legs. For leggings get black and brown, and be sure that they are thick enough that you can't see through them. Outfit Idea: Skinny jeans, a feminine flowy top, boots, and a chain necklace.  
  • Anything that says boyfriend is popular from cardigans, and jeans, to shirt dresses. Outfit Idea: Shirt dress, leggings, boots, and a denim jacket.
  • Gold, silver, pewter, and bronze jewelry and shoes. Lots of chains, and metallic beading.             Outfit Idea: When in doubt you can always throw on a solid tee, a pair of jeans, a chunky chain necklace, a metallic shoe, and you will have a complete outfit, to take it over the top add in your military jacket, and you will look like you just stepped out of a magazine.
  • Animal prints in small doses a cardigan, skinny belt, purse, or shoe would be a great way to incorporate that. Outfit Idea: You can take jeans, a solid color tee, a lepord print cardi, a black skinny belt on the outside of the cardi, and boots.

Thanks for stopping by, come back soon. I have alot planned, more crafts, sewing, cooking, and I'm going to start doing "Mood Boards" if you are intersted in getting one just let me know. I will be posting more details on that soon.
