While it may not feel like fall right now,  the kids are back in school and the official start of Fall is less then a month away.  So it’s soon time to store those summer flip flops and shorts in exchange for boots and sweaters!

So you ask,  what’s in and still in for the Season?  Well,  after much research and a well deserved shopping trip,  here are my top Fav’s:

  1.  Still loving Plaids.  I bought a great sleeveless Veronica Beard sleeveless dress over the summer and am looking forward to wearing my two wool plaid blazers this fall!  What’s also in:  other menswear inspired patterns such as herringbone and houndstooth.  The classics:  but worn in a more creative fashion!
  2. Over-sized Outer Wear:  Well it’s back to the 80’s, ladies.  Oversized outerwear to easily slide over those thick sweaters are back in.  And not just plain down coats,  but all materials and patterns are in.
  3. Florals in all sorts of twists.  Whether it’s bold graphic florals or softer, more feminine prints, florals are here to stay.  I’m even seeing them more in interior fabrics as I work with them so often.
  4. Animal prints:  To outwear, to sweaters and dresses,  animal prints (again     an 80’s twist) are everywhere for the fall..
  5.  Shearling coats in patterns or with appliques.  While shearling has never gone out of style due to the incredible warming ability of the material,  it’s become much more of a fashion statement.

Check out these examples:

This plaid dress by DVF is flattering with the bias cut and a perfect transition in to fall. Great with a black leather jacket too!
Love this bright blue animal print sweater by Rag and Bone!
So let’s talk about jackets. This shearling coat by Talitha Collection employs the use of embroidery to add tons of interest. Not your typical arctic warm” coat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Who says plaids are only for jackets? Plaids are hip and unique on skirts and pants!
So let’s talk about outerwear AND animal prints. I love this Dolce and Gabanna shearling coat on sale now at Farfetch.com. Run ladies!
An over-size jacket by Alice and Olivia. I love the bright blue faux-fur which helps with the price point and it allows for a heavy sweater below.
More animal prints. This classy yet edge dress by Alice and Olivia will take you from day to night!
Another hit by alice and Olivia. The graphic floral pattern sends a feminine yet bold statement and love how the tie front adds a 70’s twist.
This graphic floral midi dress by Saloni is flattering and stylish. I love the fall plum color and off the shoulder silhouette: still very in!
