Fall Accessories

Fall Accessories

The change of seasons is always a revitalizing time period. It could be due to the heightened anticipation of what's to come (holidays and a new year), an enlivening sense of newness (as we watch the leaves turn color and feel the air get brisker), and an evolutionary process that always leaves one part of life behind, allowing for new things to develop. Whatever the reason, it's always exciting. 
When the weather changes, so do our outfit selections. A few fall accessory trends this season that

Lady in Red

Lady in Red

Evening attire runs the gamut from all out glitz and glamour to simple and classic. While every woman can rely on the practical little black dress, it's fun to vary up your routine once in a while with a bold pop of color. That being said, a popular fall fashion trend is the color red. 
This stunning color can either be adorned with jewels (to add some extra pizazz), or toned down with neutral colored accessories (for a clean, modern look). Everyone loves a lady in red, so why not spice up your w

As the warm summer weather starts to cool and the leaves begin to change color, we know that a new season is upon us.

Autumn is known for rich, vibrant colors, both in nature and reflected in fashion as well. This year is no different. Deep burgundy hues and warm earth tones play a big part in b

Top 5 Jewelry Trends For Fall

se976_w_b.jpg
Mixing metals like gold and silver and layering of necklaces and bracelets were all the rage in 2011. Big, bold and chunky pieces also made it big that year and are continuing to throw their weight around this year. The spring of 2012 ushered in classic pieces, which include timeless diamonds. Although the green leaves of summer starts to turn gold, green remains to be in as the forthcoming fashion season celebrates nature by featuring natural pieces. We’re talking about sustainability and crude

The Debonair 30 Day Wardrobe Challenge

In December 2009 Blogger Kendi Lea started a style blog to document her daily style journey. By April 2010, she ran out of funds and had lost the original intent of her blog: to remix the contents of her closet. Kendi introduced the idea of remixing what was in her closet by the idea of the 30 for 30 Remix. "30 for 30" simply meant that the participaint would take 30 items and wear only those items into 30, (hopefully) stylish outfits.

Some of you may recall me mentioning Feel Handmade on more than one occasion prior to this post, yet I’m afraid that I simply couldn’t keep away. The main reason for my constant interest in Feel Handmade is primarily due to the fact that I regularly keep in touch with the husband and wife team behind the label, Joshua Karl and Erin Kaleel. I think that when you have a design team who focus heavily on precision, quality and exemplary

That's so New York - Topman have recently released the fourth and final installment of their Autumn/Winter 2011 collection and if I'm totally honest, although I'm somewhat delighted to see a selection of velvet blazers making their way into the collection, I'm not exactly surprised. Velvet has been a fabric which has stormed the stores this Autumn/Winter and it seems that no matter where you go and what you're looking for, velvet will st

Designer / Anastasia Lomonova

That's so New York - That's right, the most recent addition to my archive of interviews is European yet now Canada-based designer, Anastasia Lomonova. The majority of you may recall my introductory post orientated around Anastasia earlier this week? Either way, she's possibly one of the nicest personalities I've spoken to in a while; not to mention her admirable efficiency in replying with the answers to my questions. Honestly, we have something special here; I just know it!
