'Birds of a Feather'

Fall Preview

I know...It just started heating up and we're gettin' into the groove of summer. But birds of a feather flock together. Translation, girls who love fashion always fly ahead of the curve. So eventhough we've just begun to dare bare our legs we must contemplate what's to come for fall 07/08.

Here's a few trends we picked up on.

Shake Your Tail Feathers: When it comes to colors for fall think of a Peacock and strut your stuff in grays, plums, cranberries and rich blues. Jewel tones are shown in rich satin fabrics some lustrous and shiny, some matte. Cobalt blue from S/S makes a repeat appearance joined by teal, and not an ugly 80's teal.

Knit-Pick: Knits are huge, taking on an 80's edge with batwing sleeves, far isle prints and bright shades of blue, purple and neutral gray. Last fall knits were widely popular as layering pieces and it'll be the same for this coming season. With mild falls we love chunky knits worn as an outer layer instead of a coat.

Touch of Gray: Shades of gray from pale smoke to deep charcoal are the newest neutral. Yes, gray is an easy color to wear and a great base for showing of fall's bright colors and prints.

Mod-velous: For those who couldn't dare re-live the 80's have no fear the 60's are here. Waistlines are rising and so are hemlines. Think mod baby.

Lady and the....: No tramp here. Fall's runway looks embodied ladylike chic. A women that oozes confidence and is provocative with a subverted sexuality.

More to come...
