Top 10 Fall Fashion Must Haves for 2008
Ok.. we have developed the list .. our Top 10 must haves for Fall!
1. Total Slouch
Pants are being worn slouchy. Let them rest on the hips, find ones that fit through the hips and flares out to a full-leg. Watch your legs grow an inch!
2. Dark Angels
In the fashion world you’re hearing alot of talk with the word “Gothic” included. We like to take a softer approach for the fashionista’s who are afraid to take a walk on the “wild side”. Think: Lace. Dark Colors. Makeup. Fabrications. Take inspiration from this look by Alexander McQueen
or pull out your old leather jacket and make it look new again. If you need a updated leather jacket, look at Hanii Y for inspiration:
3. Flower Child
The newness that we are seeing so much of is Winter Florals! Transition a patterned dress into next season, by adding a long cardigan, tights and Mary Janes!
4. Jewel Box
We saw the colors that were displayed at the Fall Fashion shows in Februrary.. It’s finally here! The rich Majestic Purples, Royal Blues, Emerald Greens… C’est Chic! Add a pop of color and instantly update your wardrobe.

5. Bow Blouses
Bow blouses have replaced the necklace, as the accessory of choice!
We love the feel of this blouse from Marni.
6. On the Move -Skirts!
Bell Skirts are so sophisticated! Tuck in your blouses, add a jacket and you’re ready for whatever the day brings you!
Gap has one that won’t break the bank:
We love the print on this Tibi skirt. Available at www.net-a-porter.com
7. Jeanswear
Need we say or show more? We know that many things are going on in the denim world, high-waisted, skinny, pintuck, trouser… however we wanted to show one more! The boyfriend jeans. The live-in-your husband jeans. We don’t recommend these for work, but they are great for weekend wear!

8. Mad about Plaid.
Plaid, as we all know can be very “school-girl” like… you thought the uniform days were over? We don’t recommend head-to-toe plaid.. because it can quickly be overdone! Add just a single piece to your wardrobe. Like a skirt, scarf, trench. Think sophistication when purchasing. You don’t want to look like you’re headed back to grade school!
9. OMBRE! OMBRE!
Casual Chic: From Vince
10. Oxfords!
We are crazy about flat oxfords! This allows the woman who is on the go, a break from heels… with true fashion of her own! Try a few from Dolce Vita
This has a small heel.. for the flat frenemies!
Don’t try to go shopping in just 1 trip! Too many mistakes could be made! Make your own Style File and go on the search!
Keep Making Everyday a Runway!
