September Issue

As you may know, the September issues of fashion magazines are always HUGE.  Literally and figuratively.  Fall is a major time for fashion.  I've been doing my research for those of you who haven't had a chance to flip through any September issues on what is trending this fall:

Clothes
- Cobalt blue with black
- Culottes
- Menswear for women, i.e. suspenders, vests, punk boots with short hems
- Camouflage
- Animal prints (do they ever go out?)
- Jumpsuits instead of gowns*

Beauty/Hair
- Deep berry lips
- Dark green nails
- Braids (been for a while now)

I decided to take two of the trends (blue with black and animal prints) and put together an outfit with pieces that were already in my closet...voila:

BLOUSE:  Fun & Flirty bought from Marshalls.  Find similar here

JEANS:  JBrand bought from Sorella of Woodstock

BOOTIES:  Merona from Target.  No longer available from what I could see.  Find similar and probably more comfortable, but more expensive here     

NECKLACE:  Avon bought used from ebay.  Find similar here

BAG:  Badgley Mischka a gift from my sister-in-law.  Find kind of similar here
