First of Fall

” I wear my sort of clothes to save me the trouble of deciding which clothes to wear.” –Katherine Hepbum

For some reason people associate fall with dark and drabby  colors. Maybe its because people associate cold weather with darkness, hmmm I don’t know, its just an assumption. Spring and Fall are my two favorite seasons. I like to think of it as the perfect mix of hot and cold, so my wardrobe choices  reflect that “perfect mix.” I am really into blazers this fall. They are the perfect transitional piece. The right blazer could be the difference between making a look dressy or casual. During fall you never know when its going to be too warm of too cool, so a blazer is the perfect way to layer up or “un-layer.”  I like to think of it as an accessory. Blazers are quick simple and stylish.  Orange and Midnight Blue were my pops of color for this look. I paired this blazer with orange pants to make the orange in the blazer stand out more.  The orange pants actually have a natural relaxed fit with a flared leg. I wanted more of a straight leg effect, so I created the illusion that they were scrunch leg pants. I simply took a rubber band a placed at the end of the pant leg. I then folded the bottom neatly until it looked more fitted. I went with a neutral colored tan cami to make it all come together. At the foot I went with a blue heel with a black platform, which was perfect compliment for the different shades of blue in the blazer.  What cool colors are you looking forward to incorporating in your fall wardrobe?
