Love for Autumn.

Aloha,

I always look forward to the fall. It's not SUPER hot or SUPER cold, it's just right. People are always in a good mood. There are always a lot more band shows and random events going on around the city and school is starting soon... It's a happy time.I have a HUGE feeling that for the fall my style will be more of androgyny mixed with femininity. I have really been into OVERSIZED blazers with unique or OVERSIZED buttons, Men Oxfords in browns and dark greens,super frilly or ruffled dresses, and exaggerated rings.Let's throw in a few some handmade clothes(clothes with embroidery,beading, bright colorful stitching) in there too.

I've been into the Native American inspired clothes this entire summer. I have braided in feathers into my hair, wearing clothing that is all about the colorful stitching and meticulous handwork, neutral colors, and low key natural makeup. I'm sure my love for the Native American inspired clothes will carry on into the fall for me, but just with little bit more androgyny and femininity. I am all for mixing oversized blazers with shorts, boots, strapless shirts and strapless dresses this fall...I have even thinking about trading my red lipstick for a plum lipstick. I will probably bring back the red lipstick for the winter. Sadly summer is almost over and we must change up the wardrobe a bit for the upcoming season. I also plan on buying a bunch of bright, colorful, oversized buttons from Wal-mart and sewing them onto my blazers, purses,shirts and sweaters. Here are my Top 10 Obsessions(so far) for the Fall....

1. Oversized Blazers
2. Exaggerated or Oversized Jewelry
3. Men Shoes on men or women(Dark greens, Black and white Oxfords)
4. Sturdy Handmade Small Shoulder Purses
5. Anything Equestrian
6. Neutrals/Small hint of color
7. Hair Accessories(Feathers,Bows, painted bobby pins, headbands,etc)
8. Festive high waist full skirts
9. Bow Ties ,Side- Parted hair, structured vests for men
10. Leopard/Tiger/Giraffe Print.

Sweet Tea & Kisses!
