it's only July - but fall fashion has begun...

It's just starting to heat up, but the time has come to begin putting together your fall wardrobes!!
Here are some key trends to keep in mind when shopping for back-to-whatever it is you're going back to:

• Textured knits - 3/4 length cardigans look fabulous over dresses, with skinny jeans, etc.
  
• Feminine blouses - whether they be sheer, high-neck, with a tie or without, keep it classy
• Pair them with slouchy trousers, dark skinny denim or tuck them into high-waisted skirts with pockets
• Leather jackets - update the classic wardrobe staple with cropped styles or motorcycle inspired in a rich hue like cognac
  
• Boots - if you love them as much as I do (and you should), get adventurous and try new styles and colors
  
• Flats, high-heeled, slouchy, booties, spectator, with buckles, you get the idea...
  

This is only the beginning and should only serve as a starting point. There will be much more to come as the seasons change, so stay tuned and always stay stylish!
