Fall 2009 Do's and PLEASE DONT'S!


Unfortunately fall has arrived. I know, I know most people love this. I am more down with the heatwave, swimming, sweat your butt off at the beach type o' gal. Although I must admit I do love the smells and eats of fall. That fabulous smell of home baked pumpkin pie (and might I add that is my favorite desert besides ice creams of course, so if any of you are in the mood to make me a pumpkin pie that's totally ok with me), Candy Corn, and of course you cant have Fall with out Apple Cider(YUM!). Now that the brisk breeze is back.. there are a few things you should know.. UGG BOOTS.. GOTTA GO! I know I am a culprit too.. I own a pair and I wore them to the soles for the past 2 years. They are so comfy and warm but people WE MUST GET OVER IT! G-Ross! There are plenty of other options out there such as.. get warmer socks! hah No really there are def more stylish alternatives. If you go for a nice synthetic leather, fleece lined insole, faux sheep wool lined boot your good. The Ugg's are just absolutely hideous and soooo 2000 and late. Also, the higher the boot the more warmth it will keep in. Keep Riding Boot with thick tights (preferably ones with a pattern or fish net.. they make the leg look slimmer) in mind and you'll be set. Just when you go into the store see those Ugg's (short for UGLY) boots put your hands up in the air and walk awayyyyy!

Some other must have's of the season are :
1. Motorcycle Jackets.. I actually just got a knit motorcycle jacket from Urban and I love it and pretty much wear it everyday. It feels just as comfortable as a hoodie but I look like my fashionista self! Gotta stay true to yourself.. am I right people or am I right?

2. Poncho's are so awes. I cant even begin to explain the amazing-ness of them.

3. Mid-Rise to High - Rise jeans (Also, a dark wash always gives the leg a slimming look). Get rid of those LowRiser's.. Crack is WACK, I don't want to see what u got going on beneath those jeans and nor does the rest of the world!

4. Oxford Shoes. Bringin' it back Old Skool' here folks! I love my Melissa Joy Flocado's in Mustard (also available in black and plum)from Kaightnyc.com. They are absolutely gorgeous and fun to wear. I get compliments every time I wear them (and that's always a good boost, even better than the ones from Jamba Juice hah)


5. Always remember ACCESOR-IESSS! Scarfs are an amazing way to bring a casual look to a chic look. And.. They keep u supah supah warm on those chilly October nights!

Well, I will give the anniver-SURI update soon..

TaTa for now my friends TaTA!
