Fall Fashion


Ok so I'm going to give you my take on about 5 key peices for Fall 2009 in my mind which will work for upcoming saesons if you're ok with that.




1) The Leather Jacket.



Everyone needs a good leather jacket and this season they are a big deal. The style of the 80's is coming back, so with that there is the biker jacket. This loook can be masculine, but designers have added a little bit of feminity. I have one exactly like this and love to wear it with leggings and dresses. There are so many variations of this style out there with studded lapels, patent leather and even rhinestones. I would leave the rhinestones out, but that's just me. If you don't enjoy this style even a good leather bomber jacket is a must. I would personally search thrift stores and vintage shops before you shell out an obscene amount of money.







2) Leggings

Leggings of different material and designs are a hot comodity in Hollywood and on the Runway. Sticking with that eighties theme the carzy leggings are making a comeback. From sequined leggings, PVC, pleather and cut out leggings are everywhere. These can be worn with t-shirts, occasionally, and look great with Grnadpa sweaters and dresses. if you're a bit on the insecure side like myself just stick with your plain balck cottone leggings and you'll be good to go. For patterened and plain i would grab them at American Apparel.





3) Ankle Boots


I love ankle boots beacuse they're so versatile. Throw them on with a pair of skinny jeans, a romper or leggings and then your outfit is complete. You can also get flat boots that are amazing with studded detail if you're not a fan of heels. They are kind of a play off of combat boots but more fashion forward and feminine. You could just go to your favorite shoe store and pick some up for a resonable price.





4) Boyfriend Blazer



This is a great look for every body type because you can get a blzer that is a bit more tailored to make the loom les boxy. Throw it over a an oversize graphic tee and leggins or a fitted shirt and skinny jeans to complete your look. If you're a candaian like myself i would go to Aritzia, H&M is always a great place to look for trendy styles that are inexpensive.



5) The Bag


I am a huge fan of the army canvas messenger bags. I own one and to put your own spin on it you can sew patches and and buttons. This sounds childish but it just adds a unique look to any outfit, day or night. Gap sells plain messenger bags that are fine (where i got mine) but if you want the real thing I would try a thrift store or an army surplus store.







Hey

Hey, i know my blog's name is kinda wierd and all, but don't be judgemental. I have a love of music and all things different. If you just sometimes turn on the radio and have to ask yourself "What is this?" then you're like me. My blog is going to be about different fashion for girls, and maybe guys, and of course new music. I hope that you guys would give me some feedback and suggestions.

My friend just started a make up blog, which gave me the idea to start a music and fashion blog. Ok, so I'm a student who just gets frustrated with the lack of originality with people from music to fashion. In my blog i hope to maybe open up a few people to different things they would have maybe never thought of before. I love music so much and the way that different bands can make you feeel. I hope that you guys can maybe take some of that away from my blog.
