More Fall 2009 Trends

Here are a few more trends I'm seeing.

 

Rough and Tough--leather, studs, zippers, grommets.  I'm seeing this in jackets (think, motorcycle jackets) and handbags.

 

Boots--of course, these are needed for winter weather.  But how about sexy over the knee boots?

 

Knits and Sweaters--a big comfy boyfriend cardigan.  A little longer than we've seen for a while.

 

Jewelry--lots of layers.  several necklaces or several bracelets.  Make a statement.

 

Leggings--just remember long over lean.

 

The 80's--ruffles, bare shoulders, strong shoulders.  Bring out the thick shoulder pads.
