All the Shoes you need for Fall

Fall is here. Whether I like it or not. No surprise I’m slow to get into fall but seeing that Halloween is around the corner and my front walkway if FULL of leaves, I have no choice but to jump on board. One of the hardest things for me is to transition into fall footwear. I love my sandals and flip flops immensely. So I need to have some fancy footwear in my closet to make my transition to my fall wardrobe a little more inviting.

This season’s trends in footwear are showcasing animal prints front and center. Prints and textures are on trend and available in a wide variety of styles from heels to flats, booties and mules. There is an array of options available for your evening out, day at work or errand run. The beauty of these animal prints is that they are all considered neutrals and therefore easily coordinated with any print/color combination.

If you’re looking for an easy way to update your fall wardrobe this season, start with a new pair of trendy and versatile footwear! Whether you’re most comfortable in wedge heels, flats or sneakers… there is absolutely something for you in the latest trends! Find a few inspirational options taken from Nordstrom below… Happy Shopping!!

A Great End of Summer Sale

Wasn't I just blogging about the beginning of summer? Somehow now it's already Labor Day weekend. Whether you're back to school or your kids are back to school or maybe you're seeing back to school signs everywhere... we're all feeling fall will be upon us soon in spite of the steamy temps. With any luck it will still be warm for awhile but I know you're starting to think about that fall wardrobe. And if you've been in any retail store, you've seen a preview of the fall trends. 

By now, most of the summer items are gone but if you're still in the market for a summer steal, you might be in luck. Labor Day Sales are about your last chance to snag a summer piece at a deep discount. Maybe you're looking to pick up something for an upcoming vacation or just for next summer. Either way, this is the weekend to shop. With that said, most stores will likely be low on inventory. You might find more versatile styles and sizing options available online. 

This deals to be had this weekend might make for a great opportunity to try something different. Step outside your element to try a different style. Add something unique to your wardrobe. Find an item that would make a great standout piece but also blend in with the rest of your wardrobe. 

If you're looking for a little inspiration check out the pieces that I found on sale at Anthropologie this weekend. These could make for great summer pieces but a few could also transition well into fall. Happy Labor Day!
