Farewell to Summer...Welcome back Fall

Hello Guys & Dolls! What a summer!? I'm the first to admit, I've been MIA for some months now and not because I wanted to, but this has been the busiest summer ever.  And now that it's almost over, I can breath a sigh of relief and get back to blogging :-)

What did you guys do this Summer?

Farewell to Summer...Welcome Fall by ubetterwork on polyvore.com

For this Fall, the must-have pieces are ones you probably already have in your closets. 
1. The sweater coat
2. Ostrich feather (how to wear)
3. Over-the-knee boots
4. Midi hemlines (skirt/dress)
5. Booties (suede or leather)
6. A wide leg pant
7. Vintage round lens sunnies
The color of the season is going to be any shade of gray (not to be mistaken with 50 shades of Grey ^_^)
What pieces are you looking forward to wearing this Fall?

Stripes are taking over! Do you love it? hate it? or just going to go with it? I wonder if the inspiration for this trend was the original candy-striper uniform (do you remember candy-stripers?). I think I'm indifferent for right now. However, the rocket dog selection above is really cute. The verdict is still out on this one.

Ladies, have you wanted to wear boots in the summer but it was too hot and the fear of your toes sweating unbearably was a deterrent  so you opted for sandals? Well, a few designers have answered your prayers, behold the boot/sandal combo. Tom Ford, Stuart Weitzman, Jimmy Choo, just to name a few have designed the perfect mixture of sexy high heel boots with ventilation to let in some air. Will you be wearing this trend this summer? 

Thanks for visiting!
