FALLING FOR...

Detailed sleeves, plaid prints, bold red shades... these are a few of my favorite fall things. And today's outfit has a bit of all three!

It's fashion's favorite season and that means it's time to switch up your everyday style and go a little bolder than before.

Here are some current trends to try on right now:

PILE ON THE PLAID

From classic tartan to gingham, it's the print that was simply made for fall.

ROCK RUFFLES

The sweetest detail of the season? Ruffles. I just can't get enough.

RULE IN RED

Equal parts flirty and fiery, red is the standout color of the season. I've been finding fun ways to incorporate it into my everyday look. A bright handbag or a statement shoe is just enough to give your tee and jeans a serious kick of style.

What are some trends you guys can't get enough of this season?

That's A Wrap!

The ruana wrap.

It’s the piece you simply can’t go without this season. With so many styling options, it's a great addition to your fall lineup. Cozy and oversized, it’s great for casual outdoor adventures. Simply drape it around your shoulders for that warm blanket feel. Or, if you’re going for a more fitted, poncho style, wrap it and add a belt. I also love wearing it as a big scarf. It looks great! (As long as it’s not THIS big). Soft and endlessly warm, it also adds a layer of dimension to your look.) I went with for the plaid because why not—it’s fall— but there are tons of other prints and styles to choose from. Check out some more of my favorites at the bottom of this post. You really can’t go wrong!

The Smartest Accessory.

Have glasses really become a fashion essential? I’d say, judging from the overabundance of eye-catching eyewear that's been getting face time over the last few years — be it on the runways or on the red carpet — it's clear that glasses have transformed from geek necessity to chic accessory. So, while it’s a victory for all you longstanding four-eyed ladies out there, it’s also a win for the rest of us prescription-less folk, because it makes for yet another accessory to polish off everyday ensembles.

Admittedly, I’ve held off on this trend, for fear that I’d be selling out as a “hipster” or a “poser” of sorts. In fact, when I finally broke down and wore these to work last week, I felt the need to expose myself telling anyone who commented on them that they were in fact fake- “They’re not prescription!” I’d confess. However, I quickly realized that I was being silly because no one, in an office full of fashionistas, even batted an eye. The truth is, this trend has been going on for quite some time so most people are already doing it- they’re probably just a little more discrete than yours truly.

That being said, I love being able to reach for these tortoise-framed glasses from Firmoo whenever my look needs a perk. Today I’ve paired them with this three-quarter sleeve Houndstooth plaid dress from Forever21 and my go-to pair of riding boots. The bold retro-inspired frames and tall boots help to give this otherwise classic printed shift dress a charming 60’s mod feel.

I hope I’ve inspired you to take the plunge and add a touch of mainstream grownup style to your collection of accessories! If not- perhaps this little offer from Firmoo.com will help?
