Fall Must Haves!

As the leaves start falling and the pumpkin spiced lattes are in everyones hands, it's all too obvious that fall as arrived. There are a lot of fabulous new fall trends, but there are a few must have items that are core pieces for every wardrobe. They can all be worn many different ways & are completely versatile staple pieces.

1. Chunky Knit Scarf: A big knit scarf (black or grey) is perfect for adding a cute touch to your outfit or coat. Not only is it warm, but it will match with just about anything. If your feeling sweats and a hoodie this scarf will dress it up, or if you're in skinny jeans,  boots, and a top it will match perfectly with that as well. Super versatile, super cute, and super warm


2) Flare leg Jeans: You can't avoid the 70's style that is just about taking over the fashion industry. Skinny jeans are amazing, but on the flip side flare legs are perfect for giving legs an elongated look. Put on some heels, tuck in your top, add a skinny belt and you are looking casual sexy just like that. A few brands I trust and love to get this look just right for any body type is J Brand, and for women with a bit more curve and high rise fit I like Not Your Daughters Jeans. 




3. Gold Statement watch: With the fall hues its easy to find outfits that are darker hues. Darker painted nails, darker shades of eye makeup, dark jeans... you get the point. With that in mind, it's extra important to add a pop of sparkle. A big gold boyfriend watch is a great statement to your wrist to break up the darkness throughout the rest of your body. 



4. Trench: When its cold enough to wear a coat, but not cold enough to go full on puffer jacket, what comes next? In my book, a trench coat. A Khaki or black trench is the perfect cute dress up coat that can be worn with jeans or worn with a dress. It adds feminine curves to any body type and is easy to wear and style. If you really want a splurge, Burberry has perfected the trench to an absolute masterpiece. However, for those of us looking for a more reasonable piece to the wardrobe, here are a few great trench coats.




happy fall shopping everyone!
