New Look for a New Season

Fall is just around the corner and I am already planning my fall wardrobe! Tis the season of pumpkin spice lattes, strolls in Central Park and the smell of roasted peanuts in the air.. However, my FAVORITE thing about fall is,,,,, this is my favorite time of the year to play dress up! I love layering... I live for an eye catching scarf and beautiful hats...Girls and Guys this is the best time of the year to showcase your personal style....Although I cringe at the thought of having cold weather upon us so quickly.. I think it's IMPERATIVE as we transition  from Summer to Fall to do your reseach!!!! Pick up a magazine....especially if its a Foreign Magazine. British Vogue, British Elle, French Vogue, Italian Vogue, Nylon, BlackBook and BLOGS! There is information out there right at your fingertips.... Here are my 5  "MUST HAVES" in your wardrobe...I call them your INVESTMENT PIECE

First.....a great pair of jeans...Wide or Skinny...it's all about the fit! Second Everyone should have a great pair of brown leather boots and also if you can pull it off a great pair of combat boots. Third, a fitted blazer can add that extra polish to an outfit and structure. Fourth, a great hat + plus circular framed glasses. Fifth, every woman needs a retro dress and every guy needs a tailored suit! Think Mad Men.... 1960's-70's.

Although there are several trends out there right now I think it's important to find what works for you. I always tell me clients to step out of the box. Pick something that you would never try on because sometimes you get lucky! For me the MAJOR part of anyones wardrobe is to make sure that The FIt is Perfect! I see these girls all the time that are almost put together but the fit is off......One last thing.....Get out there pick up a magazine and start mentally making a checklist of things that catch your eye. Just because the labels are super expensive in the magazines doesn't mean you can't find similar pieces at affordable places....For jewelry and other accessories for the fall....I love anything that involves animals.....feathers,animal inspired rings bracelets.I will be featuring my favorites very soon.  For me my style for this Fall/Winter is vintage YSL. Structured, 70's, Effortless. To get in the mood for my new Fall Wardrobe I decided to start it with a BANG....Thus my new hair do!!!!
