Layering two cardigans, a trend spotted at Rachel Comey’s fall 2009 show, is both cute and practical for the upcoming cold winter months. There are double-layer cardigans in stores now, but you can get the look with two separate sweaters you already own.
Pair up cardigans that are different lengths, colors, and textures and let both hang open. Wear an embellished one over a more basic version.

Animal prints are something you have to be very careful about. If you overdo it, or do too much tan-leopard-with-black, you can end up looking a little dated, and can age yourself quite a bit in the process. Nonetheless, animal prints are really hot this winter, so how do you get the look without making yourself look ridiculous?
One way to go about it is to stay away from the more blatant animal prints, and stick to things that are simply reminiscent of animal patterns instead. You can do this by going for an unusual color (i.e. not a natural animal color), or sticking with something that has a mixture of patterns that can’t be nailed down to a particular animal.
Edgy hairstyles is the trend this fall. From bowl cuts, mohawks, messy soft waves, to sleek straight hair these hairstyles are the must-have look for fall. I’ve always loved the sleek, bone-straight look. I don’t see this trend going away anytime soon. The hairstyle this season are inspired by popular 80’s trends. We all can’t forget the big hair, rocker-looking hairstyles, Right?
Which one is your favorite fall hairstyle? Let us know in comments!

As I perused my stack of fashion magazines on a recent trip to the beach I noticed that one color in particular was being displayed quite often no matter which style tome I thumbed through- green, particularly the dark emerald green variety.
That deep, luscious green which always has a satin-like quality to it appears everywhere this fall. From crocodile handbags, over the knee boots, blouses, skirts and jewelry – green is the way to go this fall. It goes great with grey, black, strong blues and even a vibrant yellow.
If Emerald green is not your for you, bright green is also hot this year. Think the garden grass variety. It’s being stocked in almost every store from the big box discount shops to your high end department stores and everywhere in between. So even if your wallet has less green in it, or you simply thought you could give up being in the know now that you have two point five kids in tow, fear not going green is the way to go.

To all the style aficionados out there: thank you, you make the world a beautiful, fashionable place! Fun to look at and even better to live in! Our time has come my dear well accessorized ladies and gents, New York Fashion Week is upon us in less than eight days. Cue the models, makeup artist’s and last minute crazed and dazed designers. No, I did not get any invite’s this year (I die, I’m dying), and will not be in New York for all the festivities (tears). One day I promise you this, I will be front row center (maybe if I became Lindsay Lohan’s new girlfriend) one day! But until then I will be continue to report fashion trends, down from earth.
This upcoming fall season is going to be a chilly one. Swaddle yourselves in cashmere, preventing frost bite, boot up in Hunters to prepare for the torrential Bay Area downpours, watch out kiddies there is a fashion blizzard ahead!
brrrrr………….
When it comes to fashion followers, devotees are becoming younger and younger, can you say Suri Cruise NYC Prep, those kids have it all, wrapped up in a Louis Vuitton bunny ear-ed bow. Whether you are, or shop for a hormonal adolescent keep these four ongoing trends in mind when you are shopping.
Boho Chic: This updated and modern bohemian look replaces the bell bottoms and earthy looks from years past with destroyed skinny denim, folk-inspired fringe vests, shaggy faux fur vests and hobo fringe bags and shoes. The current times have brought back this trend but its new age focus is funky, edgy and light hearted.
Destroyed Denim– Not just a whole in the knee; the entire jean is shredded for an updated look. These jeans are distressed with holes straight off the rack. They’ll look like they’ve been worn for years.
More fall fashion trends this way, after the jump…
