Cooler weather is finally here in the northeast this week and whether (no pun intended ) you are ready or not, it is fall- back to school, routines and lots of activities- Mums are everywhere, in warm rich tones replacing the summer impatiens and geraniums. Flowers and fashion -two of my favorite things... Just happens to also be one of my favorite trends this season - There are so many beautiful choices when it comes to fall florals and how to wear them. Here are a few different options you can try using the same (J Crew) floral pencil skirt...
As you can see it's really easy to take this one piece and make it dressy (top group)or very casual( bottom group) just by changing the other pieces in your outfit. You probably have that denim shirt, chunky sweater, ballet flats, white T, etc in your closet already. A quick tip before you shop this fall for a lot of new things: take a good look at what you have stashed away in your closet and don't keep buying the same thing in a slightly different version over and over again. Chances are you don't own a floral piece - go out and get one! Whether your style is classic or a little daring, the floral trend is one to try - maybe out on a Saturday night, to work, to lunch with your girlfriends, or on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in the city. Keep the rest of your outfit simple- let your floral piece be the main attraction. J Crew Pencil skirt $120.00 at J Crew stores or at J Crew.com.
