It's that time! Kids are going back to school, September issues of all the fashion magazines are coming out, and the weather (hopefully) is about to turn cooler. That means it's time for us to start talking about my favorite subject: FALL FASHION! It's a bit much to cover in one blog post, so I'm dividing up the major trends and writing a post over each one during the next couple of weeks. First up is animal print!
Animal print is a trend that has been around for a while now (check out my
summer trends post from earlier this year) and it isn't going away anytime soon. It's a fun way to add a bit of personality to neutral colors. It really does go with almost everything! I remember buying my first pair of leopard flats when I started teaching 11 years ago and wondering, now what exactly can I wear these with? At first, I thought they were only meant to go with black. But I soon learned that they looked amazing with a plethora of colors as well as simple patterns like stripes. If you think about it, it makes sense...leopard is just a combination of the neutrals brown and black, after all! So don't be afraid to wear your leopard print items with bold colors! Here are just a few of the ways you'll be seeing leopard print this fall:
Tip: If you're looking for a REALLY good deal on some leopard print gear,
Wal-Mart has a ton of cute, new items this fall! Don't forget to check out the shoe selection also!
Another animal print that has really grown in popularity lately is snakeskin. There is a bit of a new take on it this season though. Instead of the white/gray color we typically see, brown snakeskin is in for fall! I love it because it has a warmer feel and goes better with the greens, yellows, and burgundys of the season. Check out these booties and flats that were some of the biggest sellers from this year's Nsale:
Now that the Nsale is over and everything has gone back to their original prices, here are a couple of less expensive options, too:
Remember that if you're unsure about wearing the whole animal print trend, accessories are a great way to test it out! Instead of buying a leopard print coat, try a pair of shoes or a small crossbody first. Belts, scarves, and jewelry are also great ways to subtly incorporate the trend into your wardrobe. If you're looking for something specific, always feel free to message me! I'm more than happy to help you guys find great pieces at great prices! Fall Trend #2 will be coming soon, so stay tuned!
