Tips to Fall for

  Fall?  Really?  Do we have to go there already?  It feels like summer has just begun!   If you have been to the stores in the last week or so you have already seen some of the new fall fashions.  It is exciting!  The August issue of fashion magazines will be filled with what is hot for fall.  As I look out my window it is sunny and 94 degrees, hardly fall, but I'm already thinking of what pieces I have that will transition well into the cooler months.  What I can use from last year and what I will need to add to punch things up a bit.  I know I'll need something purple or blue (which is so hot this fall!) and the perfect chunky sweater. Here are a few must haves this fall.  The trick is making it work for your style, figure and age. 

• Bows-really cute on a blouse worn under a vest or on it's own with a classic skirt.
• Statement necklace-long and bold.  Great over a chunky knit or sweater dress.
• Men's Wear-Classic tailored look, vests, tweed.  Just make sure you still look like a woman.
• Plaid-you will see this everywhere!  Find the best way to do this, in a scarf, skirt, shirt, whatever works with your figure and style.
• Sweater dressing-so comfortable and can be dressed up or down.  Add a belt or statement necklace.
• Color for fall-blue, from slate to electric blue.  Make sure you know what color blue looks best with your skin tone.  Purple will also be everywhere.  Shoes, sweaters, blouses, accessories.
• Boots-from shoeboots, to ankle to knee.  They are everywhere (more on shoes later)

Don't let fall sneak up on you.  You'll want to be fabulous for fall!
