Fall Fashion Tips!

Hey There Nebo Divas!

I haven't written in a while and I was trying to think of something that I've been inspired by lately to share with you.  I'm embarrased to say that the first thing that came to mind was not deep or profound... it was fashion! (Don't judge me... I spend all day online shopping for you!)

Sooo... I thought I would share a few FALL FASHION TIPS that are easy, quick, and cheap for all of you hard working Nebo girls (and moms) on the go!

Colors:
Mixing grey and brown is a big hit this year!  Throw in navy or even a pop of a fall color like mustard yellow or teal if you want!

Shoes:
Boots are where it's at... and I highly reccomend a tall boot in a camel/tan color.  This color literally goes with anything now.  The "black doesn't go with brown" rule is out the window.  Camel goes with ANY color!  I got mine at JC Penney for $40 last year and they are still going strong! 

Skinny Jeans:
I cannot live without my skinny jeans!  Mainly because I can wear my boots over them! ;)  I got my favorite pair at Wal-Mart over three years ago for $20.  They are the brand Lei.  They are stretchy (they never fail me no matter how my weight fluctuates) so they are also comfortable.  No matter what your body type is, the right pair of skinny jeans are imperative for your fall wardrobe!  Also, the colored skinny jean is a fun way to incorporate color and still wear your boots!  I have a deep plum purple that I got at Express and look great with my tan boots!

Accessories:
Scarves are for sure a Fall staple!  Anything goes with a fabric scarf... it will take any outfit to the next level of cuteness and quick when you're in a hurry! 
Also, I wanted to mention that throwing on a bunch of different bracelets all at the same time, or even a couple with your watch is definitely a trend.  The chunky layered look is what you are shooting for!

Metals:
Gold is the big metal for the season but also mixing metals is in style too!  Don't be scared to put gold and silver together... the more the better!

Jackets & Blazers:
You can throw on a leather jacket or a lightweight blazer with a t-shirt and scarf and look very chic and pulled together.  I have found myelf lately grabbing one of Kory's white v-necks (obviously it is oversized on me which I love) and I just throw on a scarf and a blazer or jacket with my skinny jeans and voi-la! 

Handbags:
Satchels, toteskk, and crossbody purses are definitely the hot ticket on handbags this season. But, any cute purse is ALWAYS better than NO purse! (Anna- that comment was for you. eh-hem.)

Other Ideas:
If you have a cute flouncy type dress in your closet... stick a cardigan and leggings on with it and your boots.  It looks so pulled together and it's comfy too!

I hope this is helpful as you try to make yourself presentable this Fall!  :)
Happy Dressing!
