I love all things fringe this season. From bathing suits, skirts, dresses and shoes. I am having a field day luxing up on fringe. I styled my look around my fringe wedges. I wanted a cool chic/bohemian rocker look. I took this awesome moto jacket (a must in your wardrobe) the thing you'll wear over and over forever, paired it with light blue skinnies and a grey turtle neck tee. Threw my hair up in a messy bun for an edgy look and rocked my hubby's shades. This look screams FUN! So walk around and try some of the fringe styles on. Get comfortable with it and then embrace it and invest.

Bigger is better!!! As the maxi skirt was the "it" wardrobe piece last year and while they are still very trendy, palazzo pants are a new fun and BIG twist to this comfortable style. They can be classified as a throw back from the 70's or a revival of the 90's, however they are, we can be sure they are here to stay. This style is simple. The palazzo pants come in so many colors, styles and textures. Pair them with tees, collard blouses, lace, or sweaters. Stick to heels, wedges or chunky platforms to give it that 70's flare. This style can be casual or dressy. I have recently styled my palazzos with a very feminine long sleeve lace top for a holiday party. My second look was a more comfy inspired look. I went with a button down blouse. Perfect for any occasion. Call me crazy but I kinda love them :)

Leather leggings?? YES please. This is very easy to incorporate into your look. Go with coated denim, a pair that's cotton and leather or the faux liquid legging. So many options. These can be worn with so many different shoes. From pumps or thigh high boots for a sexy look to flats for a more casual look. Running around all day with tons of errands pair these with sneakers. I went with a collared button down and kept it all black and adding the leopard gave it a punch of color. For certain this season make sure your at the top of your game with leather leggings!

The fall/winter season just wouldn't be complete without some checkered plaid. The 'it' pattern for the season. Preppy yet chic, plaid is for sure a classic that's constantly reinvented. Plaids aren't just stopping at shirts. They can be seen on accessories, scarves, jeans, trousers and coats so go bold and experiment. I took this baby doll plaid shirt paired it with ripped rolled jeans added a suede bootie and spiked accessories for a casual chic look. My "cat eye" glasses are leopard. I love mixing patterns together and leopard complimented this look. Make sure to incorporate this pattern in your wardrobe this season. Go mad for plaid :)

Puffing up this season and with that I mean shoulders and sleeves. Such a romantic trend. My hubby especially loves this look :) When the look is a bigger shoulder make sure to avoid volume anywhere else. This top would also look amazing with a high waste skirt/pant giving it a defined waist to create and hour glass shape. Proportion and balance are always such an important element when dressing. I kept this outfit very simple in shape. So update your wardrobe by adding a puffy sleeve blouse, jacket or shrug. The more exaggerated the more fun. Shop Sugar and Sequins for my look.

A personal favorite is the Skater skirt. This skirt was inspired by the silhouettes of figure skater costumes. This has been seen on the summer/spring runways and perfect for this time of the year. This is such a transition piece. I love it in all textures, from velvet, leather and silk. Pair it with anything from tanks, peplums, button downs and short sleeve button downs. I added tights just for fun. Add a statement necklace or go for a more dainty piece. Styling the skater skit can be whatever you prefer.

Be comfy and extremely stylish all at the same time. Wide leg trousers have been one of the overwhelming pieces on the runway this season. So flattering for female figures. I have invested in quite a few pairs this season. I am currently obsessing over these printed BCBG trousers. I have styled these so many ways from tanks, crop tops, blouses, and turtlenecks. Don't be afraid to LAYER up with cropped blazers, cardigans, collard shirts, vests or fur. I can go from day to night. The styles are endless. The wide leg trouser will give you an array of looks just depending on what your feeling at the moment. ROCK your wide leg favs ladies!!

Hair obsessed. If your looking for some hair inspiration I've got some great ideas. Sweep your strands to the side, braid your mane, break up your curls with color . I often pull it all back for a more polished look. Big buns are picture perfect. Simple and elegant. Jewelry has found an exciting new home in hair, and hair jewels are very happy to find a place anywhere from wispy updos to long blowouts. Dressing your hair up with something shimmery draws just the right attention. Hair chains or flowers are also great accessories for a fun look. There's no excuse for a bad hair day!

Old hollywood glam. Here's a simple way to get a vintage inspired look. Think Marilyn Monroe the ultimate glamour girl. She was famous for her curvy beauty and this body con dress hugs your curves just right. Be confident! Don't write this one off for only the skinny girls. The trick to making this trend work for your shape is to pick the style (prints, cut-outs) to suit it. Wear this for brunch, work or cocktails. Glamour is about feeling good in your own skin. For my hair I went with a wave and added a dark lip for a more vintage look.

Trendsetter: One that initiates or popularizes a trend. I am making trends today with this amaze Mink Pink kimono robe. I love everything about this look from the sheer elegance to the floral print with the dark vibrant colors. This is perfect for fall. Keeping the tank simple underneath and pairing it with bellbottoms gives this a very bohemian vibe. So easy! The wedges give it just a little more of a playful look. Be boho this season.

So we all want to look and feel as good as we dress right? Well that's not so impossible. I want to share some of my favorite goodies with you. Taking care of my skin is really important to me and I know it can be quite a challenge trying to figure out what products are the best, recommended, healthiest etc. So let me do the thinking for you. Arbonne has the best line of RE 9 Advanced (my personal fav) with proven results within 24 hours!! Your skin will thank you trust me. Do some research and you will cringe when you find out that your rubbing road kill on your face with most skin products that are out there. EW!! Enough said right?!? I also believe that what we put in our bodies is significant to the way our skin looks. In such a health conscious world there is so much out there to choose from with things reading organic this natural that, and that's not always the case. This to gets overwhelming. So again here's some of my recommendations. Arbonnes' wellness shakes, bars and vitamins are AMAZING!! Do your body right and fuel it with whats good for you. When you can actually pronounce your ingredients you know your on the right path. lol! Hope my suggestions can be of some help :)
