Final Fall Trend: Ferocious Fur

Alright, here's the final Fall Trend! This trend also transitions into Winter, but you can't do as much with fur as you can with military. First of all, we want you guys to know that all the pieces featured are FAUX fur. We personally don't like real fur, but are by no means extremists. Wearing fur is very bold, so wear it cautiously yet confidently. Pair it with bold accessories. You can also make it more feminine and less edgy by choosing a white fur. Remember, wearing faux fur doesn't have to cost you a fortune. One of us just got a Steve Madden faux fur coat for $40.00 at TJ Maxx the other day. The first two fur vests are from Macy's and are both around $50.00. The next two coats are from http://www.fabulousfurs.com/ and are both under $200.00. The last two are from Express and are around $100.00. Most importantly, we want to remind you guys not to just shop the trends. You should incorporate them in your wardrobe, but you want to save some timeless pieces. It will give you some individuality. You want to have your own sense of style instead of just what's in today, because as Heidi Klum tells us on Project Runway, "In fashion, one day you're in, and the next day you're out."

Fall Trend #3: Heads Up for Military

This is the third fall trend, and our personal favorite- military. It's also the most popular. With this trend you can do pretty much anything you want because there are so many pieces that are involved. The problem, though, is this look can be overdone. Remember, people, you're not in the military. You're trying to pull off the look. So don't wear cargo pants, boots, a camo top, and the military jacket. You want to try and wear one piece at a time or else it will look overdone and like you're trying too hard. Also, PLEASE do not wear camo! "Oh, really? You're going for the military look? Who coulda guessed?" It's way too cliche and obvious. You want to be a little more original than that. All of the boots are from ModCloth.com, one of our favorite sites for finding trends, if you haven't noticed yet. The dress (item 3), shirt (item 8), vest (item 10), and final jacket (item 11) are all from dELiAs. The black jacket (item 6) is from Macy's and would be considered our splurge. We like to try and keep things on a budget for you guys, but when we saw this jacket, we couldn't resist. It is $199.99. The other two jackets pictured (items 7 and 9) are from ModCloth.com. This look is fairly easy to pull off if you do it right and can look very grunge-chic. However, it is very easy to overdo it, so be careful! If you guys have any questions about this trend or any of these pieces, just ask! In fact, if you guys ever have any questions on anything fashion, just comment on any post.

Fall Trend #2: Gotta love lace

Hey guys, sorry it's been a while since our last post. Things have been so busy with the two of us but we are so excited to share the rest of the hottest fall trends with everyone, as well as give you some examples of how to pull off these trends without breaking your budget. The next trend we are going to cover is lace. This is very in right now and is a really easy look to accomplish. A lace top can be worn casually with jeans or you could pair a pretty lace dress with heels. We love that lace is very soft and feminine without looking like you're trying too hard. Our weather here for fall can be very warm one day while cool the next. It is for this reason that it's important to have a wide variety of pieces in your closet for this season. Because of this we chose some sleeveless tops as well as short sleeve and long sleeve tops. All of these tops while plain and simple are versatile and stylish. This gives you a lot of room to add in a personal touch with accessories without it being chaotic. The first 6 pieces we chose are from dELiAs. This is one of our favorite stores for truly feminine pieces because they put an emphasis on that. The last piece is from ModCloth.com which is a site we have mentioned before but for our new readers it's an amazing online boutique specializing in anything retro or vintage. If you guys have any questions about how you can achieve an easy lace look or where you can find more pieces please ask!
