Thanks for this post, it's inspiring, especially silk scarves. I'm trying to track down a black peplum shirt from Zara that they have on their site, but didn't find it in the store :( and this year's must have for me are heeled boots, also from Zara. I've been craving about them for at least a year :)
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear that! and aww I hate when that happens. It's so frustrating haha. I think heeled boots are gonna be so cute for fall! Zara has so many, my wallet is in tears lol :)
DeleteGreat post! That fur trim parka is out of this world!! And I bet would keep you pretty toasty. :)

Bahah, thanks :) It means a lot to me to hear that :D
DeleteI don't know if I'm so into the trends, but more textures. I'm obsessing over houndstooth, wool, and chunky knits. I really want to have that chic fall look this year that's girly and boyish, so I'm finding cardigans, boots, long socks, coats, and blazers. The trends are definitely inspirational though. I do love me a good military jacket! <3
ReplyDeletetoni
I'm on the same boat! I think mixing textures will be a lot easier during the fall since there are more knits and leathers coming out. I can't wait to see your OOTDs once it gets colder :) I loveeeee long socks.
Deletelove your list!! and I really want that first coat now haha
ReplyDeleteHaha, so do I! I have an olive green jacket but I wish it came with a furry hood :(
DeleteI am in love with parkas for fall! And...everything else on the list...peplums, ruby reds, ladylike, crossbody bags...ahh! Love it!

Deletei love the 70's style of the first pic
ReplyDeleteNever even thought about that but cool observation!
DeleteGreat list! I am wanting a nice fall satchel, a new pair of oxfords, and I am loving the silk scarves. I am hoping I can get them all vintage or thrifted though, we will see! I usually cave in and buy it somewhere if I cannot find it fast enough! haha
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a great day !
