Fall Trends: 5 Must Have Items Straight From The Runway

Right now runways across the world are speaking spring/summer trends but right now its about focusing on fall.

Here are five top trends for fall straight from the F/W 2012 shows.  

1. Studs

Studded gloves at Burberry Prorsum

Studs can be found on accessories, jackets, jewelry, tops, denim, etc.  The best part is.. you can save some money and DIY!

2. White

Alexander Wang dress

This is another trend that can be found in many different items such as dresses and jackets.  This trend will also be played into fall so invest in pieces for the next season. 

3. Dark Red Lips

Yves Saint Laurent oxblood lips

Last fall and through spring we saw the bright red lip in action.  This season the red lip gets darker along with the weather. Invest in a good color that you can wear every day and with every outfit. 

4. Printed Sweater

I've posted about printed sweaters before and these can be found all over from Nordstrom to Target.  This is a fun trend to pop a plain sweater.  Try layering a chambray shirt underneath with a studded collar. 

5. Oversize Jacket

The oversize jacket takes inspiration from the 80s but this time around, forget the shoulder pads! This look is a bit slouchy but definitely comfy! Plus you will be able to deal with a lot of layering underneath. 

How many trends will you wear this season?

Models @ Work

Fashion Week is going on all over the world for spring/summer 2013 and I just love the social media coverage with instagram and twitter! It is the best way to connect with people working all around the clock to make these shows happen. 

 If you have ever read my blog you have probably seen me post a few times about Cara Delevingne.  She is definitely my "It" girl of the moment along with everybody else.  She had rocked shows all over the world this season.  This lovely article was written in March but still stays relevant. 

Anyways, there are so many lovely photos of models and shows that I really have to highlight from the past fashion weeks (Milan is going on right now, and Paris next!).

Fall style: Oxblood

Right now... 

the real show is happening and I'm talking about the runway show that is street fashion.  It's fashion week in all parts of the world through September and while the trends on the $1,000,000 runways are the main attraction, I love looking at what is happening on the streets.  The people who attend fashion week are the fashion innovators and leaders of style.  Whether its in New York, London, Paris, Milan, etc, the streets are lined with the most amazing of fashions for fall 2012 and future seasons. 

Whats hot right now? 

Oxblood!

It has been spotted all over the streets this fashion week.  And I'm talking purses, pants, dresses, tops, shoes... its endless!
