Out with the Old, In with the New!

As we move into the Fall season we must, simply, clean out our closets! Here are three ways to make a perfect transition into the new season!

Hats: Lose your Oliver Twist topper in favor of a more glamourous fedora.
Lose: Newsboy Caps
Keep/Buy: Fedoras

Patterns: Shy away from an eclectic mish-mosh and keep lovin' your sophisticated plaid.
Lose: Mixing Patterns
Keep/Buy: Plaid
http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=Outerwear&product%5Fid=2039463819&Page=1

Bottoms: Leave you leg warmers back in the '80s but keep your jeans tucked into boots for Fall '07.
Lose: Leg Warmers
Keep/Buy: Jeans Tucked into Boots

I'm personally here to take you out of your fashion/shopping/packing rut. So get ready...

You're probably going someplace with...
Cold Weather:
If your current mindset is:
"How am I going to ever look good with weather below freezing?!?"

Here, this is how you will be able to look great in the bone-chilling cold.
  • A winter coat can be a fashion statement! Or try an ever-fashionable peacoat!

Bib-Front&Gray Striped Dresses

Personally, I am very fond of these trends. (Hopefully, considering I've worn them both weeks ago.) But, as I made fashion website rounds earlier I saw that most people said they wouldn't wear the bib-front dresses. Odd, I wore it three weeks ago and (if I maybe so bold) looked adorable! Then most people said they would wear the gray striped dress. I wore one idenicle to Heather Graham's (see link below; but probably for a fraction of the cost) for Halloween.Just another suprise to be found on the net! Tootles!

XXL Sunglasses-YAWN!

The jumbo sunglasses trend is getting old, so I'm downsizing. By simply placing my respectably large Chanel's in the drawer and pulling out a fresh new pair of Oscar de la Renta's, the trend- for me- is over!
HEY-
  • Try glasses that actually fit your face! (hint, hint.)

  • Here are some great styles that won't break the bank and fit!
