Fall Fashion Basics

Hello you avid readers, how are you all today? I’m finally back from my trip, and it has been a fun one. I bought a new electric guitar and amp on my voyage, and I am really enjoying it. The amp is just big enough to wake up the entire neighborhood ;). Well, enough about that, I have a few reviews and clothing posts in mind for this week, and they should come out daily, if not every other day.Just click the pictures to go to the links. So let’s start on today’s post!

This fall is taking a walk on the more mature side, as sophisticated cuts and clothing pieces are making their way into the fall. While shapes are becoming more evolved, it seems as if the inspiration for these trends is from the sixties and seventies. High-waisted skirts are taking on the once popular shape of the sixties, and pants are adding a modern take on the classic flare pant. Try to find a high-waisted skirt with a bit of flounce to it, such as these ones:

Now, the shape is a bit different than the ones introduced earlier this year, as these have a slightly older look to them.

 Expect to see a lot of denim in cleaner and more refined cuts, such as a skinny-legged flare jean, or ultra-skinny jeans in warm coloured tones. The best way to find your favourite cuts, are to just to try as many as you can.

Another trend that is sure to pop up during the fall is the increase in the popularity of the basic tailored blazer jacket. The basic black blazer seems to be a favourite, but I have a feeling that jewel-toned versions of this jacket will become more popular in the fall. 

 

I see boots and heels with a chunky heel are going to be popular this autumn, as it goes well with the aforementioned pieces. I recently bought a pair of chunky heels from American Eagle, which I will feature in a clothing haul post. The ones below are high-heeled clogs, which I am on a hunt for the right pair.

There you have it, the basic pieces for this fall. I will have more fashion posts up, possibly this week, and I will have a mascara review later on today. Hope you enjoyed this quick fall fashion guide. Thanks for reading. Oh, and those of you subscribed by email to this blog, I will be changing the delivery time to 7:00pm-9:00pm, instead of 5:00pm-7:00pm. This just makes it easier for everybody. Well, I will see you all in a few hours.

Happy Clothes Hunting

Trend Update: Long Skirts

Hello lovely readers, how are you guys feeling today? I hope you're in the mood for my latest trend update. A classic summer staple, the long flowy skirt, gets a makeover this year. The overall shape of the skirt remains. The fresh look of the skirts involves the use of sheer fabrics, instead of the standard opaque shades. This fresh changes adds more of a care-free beach go-er vibe than ever before, as it makes it easier to just throw on an over-sized graphic tee and a flowy skirt. You can never go wrong with the original white skirt, it goes with everything.

If you`re worried about wearing a see-through skirt, don`t be, as some of these skirts have a built in half slip( available in thigh length to ankle length) to make this more approachable for the slightly modest folk. Another change evident among these skirts, is the use of more sweet-girly accents, such as lace detailing all over the fabric and pleating. The use of tulle fabric reminiscent of a ballerina tutu,is also popular among this skirts, which add a grunge feeling to this innocent staple. If you are an avid trend watcher, then look out for skirts with bright splashes of colour, but not neon, you do not want to over work the trend. Also,try to look for skirts with watercolour-like detailing, it give a more relaxed yet put together feel. These skirts can be worn with lace up boots, heels, basically anything. There`s the trend update,now go and get creative!

Happy Experimenting,
