Deal or Deluxe: Fall Fashion Essentials

fashiontrendsheader

The weather may be about to get colder but that doesn’t mean your style still can’t sizzle. Start your fall clothes shopping with a few on-point trends in mind so you don’t miss out on the hottest styles of the season. These six fall essentials for any closet incorporate trends you’ve got to try on for size.

turtlenecks

Buttoned Shoulder Turtleneck Sweater (The Limited $34.96) | Relaxed Turtleneck Sweater (LOFT $69.50) | Vince Colorblock Turtleneck Sweater (Nordstrom $365)

It’s all the the small details. Colorblocking and embellishments (like shoulder buttons) really elevate everyday fall staples like the all-mighty turtleneck–an absolute must for those blustery days out on the town.

miniskirts

Genuine Suede Origami Skirt (Forever 21 $37.90) | High Waisted A-Line Sailor Mini Skirt (EXPRESS $59.90) | Theory Skirt – Shanrial Leather Color Block (Bloomingdale’s $495)

Who says mini skirts are just for summer? These barely-there minis have just the right colors and textures to be totally fall-centric and can easily be warmed up with a good pair of tights.

Diamond Pattern Tights (Forever 21 $3.99) | Chelsea28 ‘Hex Floral’ Lace Tights (Nordstrom $18) | Wolford ‘Laisa’ Chevron Tights (Nordstrom $58)

Did someone say tights? Go from practically to posh by adding a little print to your tights. This look is especially chic when the print is woven as a pattern, as opposed to dyed.

pufferjackets

Ultra Light Down Jacket (UNIQLO $69.90) | Packable Primaloft Jacket (Lands’ End $99) | Laundry by Shelli Segal Hooded Short Packable Puffer Jacket (Bloomingdale’s $248)

Puffer jackets give your everyday looks a sporty vibe and the best part is that they come in a variety of styles. A shinning finish is totally statement-making while a print adds a little playfulness.

flares

Boho Artist Flare Jean (American Eagle Outfitters $49.95) | Articles of Society Red Label ‘Kick’ Flare Jeans (Nordstrom $88) | rag & bone/JEAN Mid-Rise Stretch Corduroy Flared Jeans (Saks Fifth Avenue $198)

Get your vintage fix by throwing a pair (or three) of colored flared-leg pants into the mix. Flared corduroys are so 70s chic and look amazing with a simple and crisp white tee.

boots

Aerosoles Sweet Ride (Shoes.com $88.95) | Jayyden (Steve Madden $169.95) | Loeffler Randall Hattie Leather & Neoprene Platform Wedge Boots (Saks Fifth Avenue $450)

Get bold and maybe even a little gothic with some serious black boots. Stomp the sidewalk like a catwalk this fall in sturdy yet fashion-forward boots in sleek, modern styles.

Nailing Nautical Style

anchorsaway

With temperatures rising and long days in the sun starting, it’s time to hit the water. Whether you’re actually planning on heading out on a sailboat anytime soon, or if you just want to borrow the style elements that go along with it, we can help you dress the part. While classic nautical style might be available far and wide, finding the items that put a modern twist on those classics is a fun way to update the look.

sperryshoe

anchornecklace

Anchors Up
Nothing really drives the nautical theme home like an anchor motif. Whether it’s a print on a pair of shorts or a charm on your bracelet, an anchor is a classic symbol of everything preppy, seafaring, and nautically inclined. Try this Dogeared Anchor Yourself Necklace for a subtle anchor appearance. This necklace will remind you that while things change, you are strong and can stay steady.Factor in the savings from Bloomingdale’s coupons from Ebates and it’s pretty hard to resist.

stripedsweater

Spring Trends: All White

allwhite

Spring is the season for new beginnings. The flowers are blooming, the birds are chirping and fashionistas everywhere are shedding their winter coats to show off new trends. We decided to split up our Spring Trends blog post into four parts, highlighting on four popular spring trends we are loving. 

Today we are focusing on what is a seemingly simple trend, but is bold in a brand new way. And it’s probably something you can do with pieces you already own! Head-to-toe white makes quite a statement in a modern and monochromatic way. We’ve created three outfits to get you all fired up about white-hot looks for spring.

outfit1

All white outfits may seem daunting at first, but by using multiple separates, you can easily create a modern and sleek look. This textured scuba blazer dresses up a cami and white skinny jeans. Pair this outfit with metallic silver pumps and a floral wallet and you have a great outfit for a fun night out.

Textured Scuba Blazer (Topshop $115) | Ivory Pleat Front Cami (Dorothy Perkins $15) | J Brand 811 Mid-Rise Skinny Jeans (Net-A-Porter $175) | Jowzer D’Orsay Pumps (Nine West $79) | Ted Baker London Floral Bow Matinee Wallet (Bloomingdale’s $150)

outfit2

We all love a comfortable sneaker. Pair with a girly eyelet dress and the incredibly popular bucket bag, you have a fun spring outfit that is not only chic, but sensible.

All Eyelets On You Dress (ModCloth $69.99) | Converse Chuck Taylor Low Top Sneakers (Macy’s $49.99) | Marc by Marc Jacobs ‘Metropoli’ Leather Bucket Bag (Nordstrom $278)

outfit3

For a more relaxed look, pair a white rollsleeve top with bermuda shorts and white sandals. Add a pop of color with a crossbody bag and you’re set for the weekend.

White Collarless Rollsleeve Top (Dorothy Perkins $27) | AEO Factory Twill Bermuda Short (American Eagle Outfitters $39.95) | Circus by Sam Edelman ‘Selma’ Gladiator Sandal (Nordstrom $44.95) | MICHAEL Michael Kors ‘Bedford’ Saffiano Leather Flat Crossbody Bag (Nordstrom $178)

What is Raw Denim?

raw denim
If you haven’t heard of raw denim, you are missing out on perhaps the biggest trend in menswear in the last decade. Raw denim is more of a movement than a fashion trend. Born of DIY culture and eco-friendliness, raw denim jeans and other goods are all about customization and quality.

Kenneth Cole, $89.50
Kenneth Cole, $89.50

Basically, raw denim is untreated and unwashed after the dying process. While a lot of modern denim products are distressed with chemicals and sandblasting, which may be hazardous to both the environment and factory workers, raw denim is virtually untouched. The end result is super sturdy, long-lasting denim that you can break in and shrink to your own personal preferences. Plus, you can create your own natural fading and distressing over time for a one-of-a-kind look.

Bloomingdales, $345
Bloomingdales, $345

Raw denim doesn’t only come in the form of jeans. This jacket with leather accents is an investment in quality that will last for years to come, which is perhaps the most important aspect of this fabric. You get your money’s worth.

Gap, $84.99
Gap, $84.99

Most raw denim products are selvedge denim. This means the ends are bound and not cut, making them less likely to fray, which also increases the garment’s quality. This selvedge denim jacket is a basic staple piece that can take you into any season.

Shoe Buy, $34.95
Shoe Buy, $34.95

And of course, raw denim accessories are definitely a thing. Wallets, key chains, even bracelets have been made from raw denim as a way for diehards to wave a flag of pride. This trucker hat is one stylish way to say you rock the raw.
