STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

Fall is my favorite season for fashion, i love buying new boots, coats, and authentic designer handbags. Before i go out and spend my money i always think about whats "in" this season. Sometimes i find it hard to find a list of the latest trends so i did some research and decided to post what i found.

* ANIMAL PRINTS: zebra, leopard, tiger you name it, its hot this season! Having a handbag with animal print is a great way to stand out. Alot of people hold back from animal prints because they see them as "trashy" but if worn right they can make an outfiit look sophisticated and sexy.

* METALLICS: Metallic dresses, handbags, and even makeup are all over the runway this fall season. Adding a metallic accessory to your outfit can make it look edgy yet sophisticated. A metallic handbag is perfect for completing any outfit.



Dolce & Gabbana metallic calfskin satchel

* EXOTIC SKINS: Reptile skins are another trend alot of people are afraid to try. But times have changed and you can find beautiful snake, lizzard, and crocodile skin handbags that look very elegant. Just make sure you dont go over the top, just one reptile skin accessory is enough.




Yves Saint Laurent crocodile uptown bag

* PATENT LEATHER: My personal favorite. We saw the patend leather trend alot last year with shoes, but now its back with a bang! Just one patent leather handbag or pair of shoes will make any outfit look super hot. Just remember not to over accessorize.


Marc by Marc Jacobs patent utility tote


These are some of the top trends for fall 2011 fashion. All of these trends make bold statements if worn properly (dont over accessorize). So this season while your doing your fall shopping dont be afraid to try something different. Pick up a new animal print, metallic, reptile skin, or patent leather designer handbag.
