I’ve always equated fall with new beginnings and more importantly -- new clothes! That’s why I’ve decided to take myself back to school shopping this season. Why should kids have all the fun? Today, I’m pinpointing the essentials I’m loving for fall.
Leather, leather, leather!
As Cher Horowitz would say, “I am majorly, totally butt crazy in love with Josh leather!” I can’t get away from it and I don’t want to. Leather can be found everywhere this season, from leggings and jackets to full on dresses. Kill two trends with one stone with this Vegan Leather Peplum Top, $98.
Studs
No, I don’t want to be a biker, but there is something that is just so cool about studs! They’re starting to pop up as details on things like shoes and jewelry, but I like the contrast of them on a ladylike blazer -- like this one from Zara, $90 -- to add a little toughness to a look.
Riding boots
Obviously it would not be fall without some boots! Shoes are my weakness, so it can be hard to narrow down my wants to just one pair, but if I were to pick just one style for fall, it would be riding boots. They are going to give you the most bang for your buck. A pair of light brown or cognac ones will assure you optimum versatility whether with jeans or dresses. I love these Vince Camuto equestrian-inspired boots, $239.
Chunky jewelry
Chunky when talking about your weight=bad. Chunky when talking about your jewelry=good! From jeweled necklaces to oversized watches and stacked bracelets, loading on the accessories this season is the quickest way to update your look. Try this J. Crew gold bangle set, $30.
