10 FALL MUST HAVES ON MY LIST

I am a Summer girl but I'm really excited for this Fall. I am definitely feeling all of the darker colors this season such as navy blue, grey, black and purple. Here are the top 10 items I believe you should have for this Fall...

1. Biker Leather Jacket-The more fitted the better! This can be worn casual with jeans and a tee and boots but also can be worn dressed up over a dress and heels. I just purchased one not too long ago when I was in NY and I'm in love with it!

2. Leggings-Loving the leggings. They've never gone out like some of you think they have. Leggings are here to stay! They are so comfortable and can go with anything. There are so many different styles out from faux leather to cotton to shiny to sequin to latex. Just pair them with a tee and heels and you're good to go. For the evening you can throw on your leather jacket or blazer and you're ready for a night out on the town.

3. Skinny jeans-Whether paired with a tee, oversized sweater, cardigan or tank you can never go wrong with skinny jeans! They are perfect and can be worn with flats, booties, knee-high boots or platform heels. I personally like the dark wash and I'm feeling the ripped ones right now, they give it a little more of an edge. Always have my skinnies no matter what time of year. The gap has some really great ones now and very affordable.  Take a look...

4. Cardigans-I have about 7 cardigans in all different colors and styles. They are perfect for wearing over a tee, blouse or dress. You can pair it with jeans, leggings or a skirt. Cardigans are a staple to your wardrobe and so easy to pack in your suitcase for travel! Here are a few of my faves. You can buy them from pretty much any store. Gap, J.crew, Nordstrom, Banana Republic or even Target! Check out a few that I like.......

5. Scarves-These are my go to for spicing up an outfit. Just throw on a scarf with any outfit and it is the perfect accessory for every season. I have a ton of scarves in all different colors and patterns and I think everyone should own at least 3. A solid, to go with everyting and a couple prints to mix it up! They come in all different materials and lengths so go out and get you a few for this Fall. You can also wear and tie them a bunch of ways. The best thing about them is the price! They're super affordable....


6. Boots-Whether they are booties, knee-highs or over the knees you need a great pair of boots this season! I love boots in the Fall. They are so easy to throw on with a pair of jeans or leggings and they look great as well. I bought a few pairs for this year..knee-high flats for casual wear, booties for cas or dressy and knee-high heels for the evening! All great purchases that I'll be wearing for years to come!

7. Statement rings-You can find these little things anywhere in the mall, at any boutique or even at street vendors. Love having rings on my fingers at all times if it's 1,2 or 3 of them! They're so inexpensive and add a great touch to an outfit...A few of my faves right now...

8. Fun Colored Handbag-It's no longer about your basic black bag anymore. It's all about COLOR! I'm feeling the different colored handbags out now. Black is so boring and color is so much more fun. It adds a pop to any outfit and you don't have to match anymore. It's ok to wear black shoes with a purple bag or vice-a-versa..
I love color!!!

9. Sequins-This Fall sequins are definitely in! It's an easy way to dress up an outfit...A plain tee with skinny jeans or leggings with a sequined jacket/blazer is hot. Or even a sequined top w/jeans and flats for the day to wear cas. When I was in NY recently I stopped by Topshop in SOHO and they had a ton of sequined tops, jackets, dresses and boleros. I was in heaven =) check out a few looks with the fab trend...

10. Matte nail polish-Yes this season matte nail polish is the new polish. It's sexy and stylish. OPI has a new line of matte polish and Zoya has a different variety of colors as well. Check out a few of my fave colors for this Fall...
