Drench your warmth in Trench Coats

"Fashion is what you adopt when you don't know who you are"




So far we have been receiving a lot of sun (not that I’m complaining, I’m loving this weather!), during this fall season. However it is best that we are prepared for a change in climate…(it’s extremely unpredictable). One of the best things to own during the fall and during the winter season is a trench coat. There are tons of trench coats that are stylish and can keep you warm during the upcoming months. Here are a couple of coats you can choose to
buy.

Light trench coats           
When people think of trench coats they usually think big heavy coats. But that is not always the case, in fact there are many trench coats that are not that warm and are very light. They are actually perfect for the kind of weather we have been having lately. These go really well with casual and semi-formal clothing.

Short Trench coats
 Alright, there are many cute short trench coats that are comfortable for day to day wear. They look great with just plain jeans and tee shirts. If you think this is your type of trench coat I would suggest buying one that’s dark or neutral in colour, that way it will match a variety of your wardrobe.

Long Trench Coats
 I love to think about long trench coats as elegant winter dresses. I find them to be super warm and cozy (can you tell they are my favorite type of trench coats?). You too can keep warm and style your outfit by putting on a long trench coat when going out to a fancy event or for a casual night out. You may be wondering what type of casual clothing can I wear? Well these types of coats can be worn with leggings/ jeans, heels, shirts, and cardigans.

                And that’s that. Just remember to always keep warm, cozy and stylish during the cold months. There are different trends during every season; we just got to learn how to play around with our wardrobe to keep in stylish.

Incorporate Summer Pieces Into Your Fall Wardrobe



With summer coming to an end and fall slowly creeping up on us, we find ourselves with piles of clothes that are no longer weather appropriate. I mean, it is not as if I can rock my daisy dukes and tank tops in the middle of October, right? Wrong! Incorporating your favorite summer pieces into your fall wardrobe is quite possible and not as challenging as one might think.

Tank Tops

Now, tank tops are easy. Throw a cardigan over them and your out the door. However, if you want to jazz it up a little more, try adding a chunky belt or scarf to completely transform a summer tank into a fall staple.
 







Shorts

While any sensible person would not be caught dead in shorts after August, fashionistas are not sensible so we figure out ways to make it work. Lucky for us, knit tights are quite popular this season and they pair beautifully with shorts. They will be sure to keep you warm while giving your shorts a high fashion, weather appropriate twist.
 

Dresses



I am a huge fan of dresses in the fall and winter. No, I am not talking about sweater dresses. Summer dresses are great for fall because they add a little character and uniqueness to an outfit. Personally, I love pairing bright dresses a dark cardigan, tights and flats or a leather jacket and boots for a little edge. There are so many different ways to style them!


Colored denim


We saw A LOT of colored denim this summer. It was everywhere! Fortunately, this trend will be following us into winter. While we will be seeing darker colored denim, it does not mean we have to get rid of our brighter denim. Contrary to popular belief, bright colors are perfect for the fall. Bright denim makes for the perfect pop of color to a otherwise drab outfit.

Do not be intimated by fall! Bring out your favorite summer pieces and have fun with them. The new fall trends are amazing but, it does not mean we have to bid our favorite summer trends adieu.

10 most fashionably inspirational films every fashionista should watch!





Stuck in a fashion rut? Need a little inspiration? Don’t fret! We have a list of movies that will be sure to get you out of that rut and out turning heads in no time!

1.) Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961):




This timeless classic starring Audrey Hepburn is
packed with glamour and elegance. From Hepburn’s
iconic black dress to her flawless white sleeveless
number, this movie is the epitome of all things
fashionable.

2.) The Notebook (2004):




Aside from being one of the greatest love stories of
our time, this Nicholas Sparks classic showcases fashion
from one of the most fascinating decades, the 40′s. A
lot of fashion in this movie can be worn today for that
vintage feel. For example; Rachel McAdam’s polka-dotted
red dress is definitley something that can be worn today
without looking too outdated.


3.) Marie Antoinette (2006):




Big hair, big dresses, big bows and big ruffles! What
more can you ask for? This movie is not only the telling
of France’s iconic but ill-fated queen, it is also a flashback
into a decade of the over the top glam and fashion we
have come to love today.

4.) The Devil Wears Prada (2006):








Are you really surprised? This movie is centered around
high end fashion and classic couture. Watching this movie
makes me want to go to the mall and purchase every piece
of high end couture I can find. Then i quickly slip back into
reality and realize that this is simply not possible. However,
living vicariously through this movie shall suffice, for now.

5.) Clueless (1995):




This movie is the embodiment of 90′s fashion. Now, I am

 a 90′s kid and from what i remember, the fashion was all
 over the place. You had midriff shirts, baggy shorts and
clashing colors everywhere. This movie did 90′s fashion in

 a classy way. Claire’s outfits were super cute and sweet and
showcased her preppy stereotype.

6.) Sex and the City (2008):




Sex and the City is hands down one of the most influential
shows ever created when it comes to fashion. The movie
was no different. 145 minutes of pure fashion lust. The
perfect movie to watch when you want to feel like a super

 glam socialite but can’t afford to actually dress like one.

 7.) 500 Days of Summer (2009):








Zooey Deschanel’s character stole not only her costar’s
attention, but also the attention of fashion lovers everywhere.

Her quirky, slightly 40s, slightly indie, feminine style is a
refreshing take on modern movie wardrobes.

 8.) Pocahontas (1995):




Believe it or not, a lot of modern day fashion trends are
inspired from this movie. Think about it; feather earrings,
feather extensions, moccasins and tribal prints. Thank
you Pocahontas for making it acceptable to wear feathers
on my ears. How can i ever thank you?

 9.) Wall street: Money never sleeps (2010):







This one is for you men out there. While this movie is really
heavy on suits, the way they were done in this film is truly
unique. Shia Labeouf’s character is always dressed sharp
in dark suits with slick backed hair while Michael Douglas’s
character wears his suits in a more laid back and casual fashion.
I suggest this movie for those “suit and tie” men that want to
add a little twist to their wardrobe.

 10.) Coco Avant Chanel (2009):





This movie will not only give you some insight into the
incredible life of the legendary Coco Chanel, but it will also

 inspire you to be a little daring with your wardrobe choices.
It will inspire you to experiment and be original. If you have 

not yet seen this film, i highly recommend you watch it
immediately.
