Back to School with Flare

Are you ready for Fall? Step into the season in ballet flats. Pointy-toe heels compliment a fitted sheath or a pencil skirt. Bright suede shoes in bright colors like greens, reds, purples and blues will brighten up the seasons colors of tan, black and gray.
Denim jackets in black and blue are all the rage. Matched up with khakis, dress pants or feminine skirts. Denim is big and colored denim is bigger this season. Still a medium or dark wash makes you look leaner than a light one.
 Dress your jeans up with a white shirt and a jacket and you have a professional look going on. Glitz it up with a dazzling sequin jacket and your ready to party. Skinny jeans, flared jeans and boyfriend jeans, (remember baggy not saggy) you can make them your own.  
Here are some tips for fitting jeans. When trying on jeans keep them on for  five minutes to see if they fit snugly or too too tight. Jeans stretch on you.Touch your toes and sit down. Bring two sizes of each pair you want to try on.  Sizing varies according to different brands. If you are petite chose close fit ankle-length cuts. It will exend the line of your legs.
Jeans are so popular that they have become part of the legging family, beyond  skinny jeans.  Leggings or jeggings(a jean legging) which is the must have item this season can be layered with a vest, a print blouse or a long sweater.Top it with pearls and you have made your own fashion statement this season.
Plaid woven shirts are in too. Plaids are all the rage. Wear a tank top underneath over shorts and you are ready to stay cool during Indian Summer. It's been a really hot summer so there are still some ice cream days left. You can still wear your shorts and be Styling in Delco even in the Fall.
