    It's that time again...the season is changing and I have to give you the low down on all the latest trends. I know, I know...I know what you're thinking. Everything is the same and everything repeats itself. And guess what!?! You're right. Fashion just reinvents itself- there's really nothing new anymore. I means seriously- what could be invented that we don't already know about? Lol. Anyway...so I won't say these are the new trends- this is what showed up on the runways this season. In a nutshell here it is...and I've also created some looks that incorporate my top 8 favs!
    When you think of floral print you typically think of Spring/Summer but not this season! The amazing print is crossing over into fall/winter. It was all over the runways. The key to this look this season is smaller prints...bolder prints are still in but notice the smaller prints on the blazer and trouser below that I found from www.topshop.com! Florals are worn from head to toes and they can also be used to mix prints as well. So you should definitely have a few floral pieces in your wardrobe for seasons to come!
Maxi skirts were really popular this summer and they will also cross over into fall/winter. Full skirts in general are great this season. They are very versatile too- you can rock them with knee high boots, pumps, wedges, etc. You can dress them up with a blouse or down with a denim jacket or t-shirt.

Strategically placed, contrasting, yet complimentary, bold and bright colors paired together to create a unique look has been trending since last year. I love color so I was happy when this trend hit the scene. But now we have the Monochromatic trend popping up. When worn with style, a Monochromatic outfit, can be both unexpected and fashion-forward. To get a better understanding of the word Monochromatic, definition wise, Monochromatic fashion is all about wearing a single color from head to toe(as seen in the picture on the left). It could be any particular color. The best advantage of this mode of fashion is in appearance. Monochromatic dressing sense makes one look slimmer and taller. And for the last part alone I am sure you would want to give this trend a try. So from the two looks above; Which do you adore? more
