Gone are the heated days of spring shades of blue and yellow and summer pinks. It's fall, baby. That means rich shades accented by cozy cardigans and chic scarfs. It also means it's time for wine...colors...and the adult beverage, of course!
That being said, I've been falling in love with the rich bordeaux tones making their way into everything from jackets to jeggings. Below is a set of a just a few rich wine items I'm crazy about. I'm especially loving the wine colored skinny jean and Tolani scarf!
Which rich shades are you pulling out for fall?

Fall Fashion Preview #2: Polka Dots
I have a few friends who hate polka dots. HATE polka dots. While they are most certainly entitled to their opinion, I adore a lady like polka dot blouse with some tailored paints or skinny jeans.
That being said, layering over polka dots would definitely minimize any Minnie Mouse issue you may have with the print. Or you could even toughen up the dots with chain jewelry, a leather jacket, vest, etc. Styling is pretty damn critical with a polka dot print.
So, how do you feel about polka dots?

Fall Fashion Preview: Trend #1: Mod
Even though I know many of you across the country are positively melting, fall is on the horizon. Yes, fall fashion trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrends are comin'...whether mother nature is listening or not.
Trend #1 is a throwback to '70s mod. Shift dresses, wide trousers and brights! While shift dresses can hide a myriad of insecurities, I also dig the cool fabrics, patterns and overall gusto that comes along with these little dresses. On the runways, shift were paired with everything from bare legs to bright tights to skinny jeans, boots and turtlenecks. Yes, turtlenecks.
I'm a fan of shift dresses but always make sure that it's short enough on me. Sounds obvious, but a long shift on a vertically challenged lady looks all sorts of wrong. I'd even be game pairing said shift with opaque tights, a long sleeve tee and heels come fall.
What say you - are you shifting your mindset to fall fashion?
