Fall Staples: Prints

Every season has its staples and this fall, just like every other, plaid and leopard print are back! These oldies but goodies just scream "fall fashion" and they are definitely a must have in your fall wardrobe. There are countless ways to wear these prints from accessories to full outfits, the sky is the limit. There's a reason why these prints keep coming back. Invest in them and you'll be set for many fall's to come.

If you are afraid of prints, keep this in mind, leopard is usually done in neutral colors, therefore; its a neutral! Whether you wear it as a top, bottom, layer, or accessory, you can pair it with virtually anything. Wearing a print rather than all solid colors will give your outfit more dimension.

Plaid is less of a neutral print depending on the color but there are so many possibilities because of the amount of color combinations. Not only will adding plaid to your outfit give you dimension from the print but also a pop of color, or two! Also, the grunge look is back, so grab an oversized plaid shirt and tie it around your waist or wear it unbuttoned with a some combat boots you'll be the 2014 version of this flashback 90's trend.

Here are some leopard and fall pieces to add for your wardrobe pair these with leggings or jeans for a casual/daytime/weekend look OR dress them up with ponte pants, blazers, skirts etc. for the office.

Statement Bags

Bags have always been a statement piece, and now you can make an even bolder statement with this fall's statement bag trend. From prints and embellishments, to words, fringe, and unique shapes, there is a bag out there for each and every style no matter how subtle or loud you want it to be.
These bags will be an instant conversation starter at your fingertips. You'll definitely be turning heads wherever you go and getting compliment after compliment on your chic, bold style. I one hundred percent recommend trying this trend out this fall. Have a little fun, and take a break from the seriousness of everyday life, and bring a fun new accessory to work, school, or anywhere you need a reminder to stress less.
Here are three different style statement bags and the best places to rock them:

Going out: When you don't need to carry a whole lot, why not throw the essentials into a cute and fun little clutch or crossbody? You never know you might notice you at the bar!

Everyday: Try anything furry, embellished, bold colored, printed or any combination of these in a classic tote or satchel silhouette to give you an edgy look at work or school.

 Weekend: Rather than putting a slogan on a t-shirt, you can show off your sassy personality by dressing up a pair of jeans and basic top with one of these fun bags.


Wherever your days take you this fall, I recommend trying this trend out. Find the right bag for your lifestyle and make a statement everywhere you go!
