Fall Trend Alert – Burgundy/Wine red

Joli_J

Fall is in full swing and there is the cold weather and majestic colors in the changing leaves on the trees to prove it. The great thing about fashion, especially  for this season is that all the beautiful Fall colors are trending on runways, which makes for more colorful, warm fashion pieces. One trending color of the season is burgundy/wine red. This color embodies sophistication, and lots of class. It’s everywhere! Add a burgundy accessory or two to your outfit to spurce it up. 🙂

Fall Trend Alert – The Colored Skinny Jeans

Joli_J

It is the season for textured fabrics such as velvet, suede, leather etc, sparkles, shine, glamour and the colored skinny jeans. I must confess it took me a while to be a fan and now I am hooked. I first fell in love when I saw the colored skinny jeans in one of my favorite colors. From then on I knew it would be one of my fashion staples for Fall. You can find them in a variety of vibrant colors and cuts from your favorite stores. My personal favorites are from Ann Taylor. For the girl on a budget you can find the colored skinny jeans at Old Navy for $19. These jeans are so versatile you can rock them with just about anything pumps, boots, peplum tops, button down shirts, sweaters and more.  Have fun with the latest trends even if it is only for the season.
