Fall trends: plaid coats
Thursday, November 01, 2018
It's hard to pick my favorite amongst the fall trends I've featured here, but if I have to, it would be this one. I own probably far too many coats (and jackets) for someone who lives in a mild climate, but my love of outerwear knows no bounds, nor season, apparently. This year, I'm all about the plaid coat. In spite of fact that temperatures are still in the upper 60s here, I've already bought my coat (read on to see which one), and I can't wait to wear it. Here are all of my favorites this season.
Fall trends: statement stripe sweaters
Thursday, October 25, 2018
While the origin of the statement stripe sweater (say that 10 times really fast) is unclear, there are a gazillion takes on the trend this season, and I'm here for all of them. Some are more subtle than others, but if you're like me and find yourself starved for color in the winter, this is a pretty easy solution. From skinny rainbow stripes to a more bold, wide, colorblocking, there's something out there for everyone. (There are also softer, more neutral versions, but meh, this is all about bright color.) Here are my favorite statement stripe sweaters for fall.
Fall trends: western boots
Thursday, October 18, 2018
When I think of dressing for fall, two things come to mind: sweaters and boots. A trend report on the former is coming next week, but in the meantime, here are boots. I always buy at least one pair of new boots each year, and for 2018, it's all about western-style boots. I'm not talking full-on cowboy boots, although that style is out there—as a city-dwelling northerner, that feels a bit inauthentic to me. I'm also staying away from fringe, as that was a boot trend a few years ago (and can still be found in stores). Instead, these are a more refined take on the western boot, although some have more flair than others. Here are my favorites for fall.
Fall trends: corduroy
Thursday, October 11, 2018
I wore a lot of corduroy in the '90s. In fact, I wore so much that I probably haven't worn much since. But like everything else from the '90s, it seems to be back in fashion, and while I'm passing on some things this time around—babydoll dresses and Doc Martens, I'm looking at you—corduroy is something that I feel like I can still pull off. The key is wearing pieces that don't feel too juvenile—think tailored rather than cute. Not only are there a ton of ways to wear it, but there are a bunch of bright, unexpected colors too. Here's what I'm loving for fall.
Fall trends: animal print
Thursday, October 04, 2018
Now that it's actually fall, we can talk about fall trends, and first up is animal print. I'd argue that as far as animal prints go—especially leopard—they're more of a classic than a trend. That said, there are all sorts of different animal prints out there this season, like zebra, snake, and cheetah, and some of my favorite takes on the trend play with color and scale, as well as pattern. Here are some fresh new ways to wear animal print for fall 2018.
