My three favourite falls trends:
1. A burgandy lip. I love the drama of dark lips.
2. Big, warm, cozy sweaters. I’m always cold and on a grey fall day, there is nothing better than a cuddly sweater.
3. Over-sized coats. They’re warm and cuddly like the sweaters but there’s also something glamourous about a big coat.
Summer has been lovely but fall is my favourite season.
I really enjoy those new dresses colors
cobalt blue very fashionable styles of the 70s and eighties also lots of dark reds on the lips and the boots are with a nice wedge

Wow, picking my top 3 fall fashion trends for 2012 was hard but I would have to go with
1) Red. Everything from dresses to pants to tops in a beautiful crimson red.
2) Dresses with high draped necklines, So flattering to the body and so so beautiful to look at.
3) Lastly, nothing says fall like cozy oversized sweaters. Stay fashionable while also being warm and comfortable, the best of both worlds!

2. Leather – in addition to my new jacket, I have a bunch of other leather apparel that I’m dying to break out once the temperature drops. My favs – j brand leather pants!!
3. Military trend – I love military inspired boots!
