As you probably know by now the “athleisure” trend has kept growing and it is NOT going anywhere. In fact it’s evolving. Now by athleisure we don’t mean running around town in your Lululemons (which we do sometimes ourselves) but actually constructing an outfit that’s casual, yet pulled together.
Need a break from it all? Just wanna get away from the hustle of the city? Well, you’re in luck! Now is definitely the best time for travel. That little break in October, right before the holidays arrive is just the relaxation and recharge your body needs to make it through to 2017.

Forget orange! Brown is the new black. Brown isn’t exactly my favorite color either. I get it. However, I hate to break it to you, brown is the new “It” color for fall ’16. Instead of reaching for your go-to black this season, why not try to add some brown to your rotation of boots, bags, coats or even tops? Now don’t just think chocolate brown will cut it.

It’s no secret I am a huge fan of pajama-inspired fashion (not lingerie as clothing, Kim Kardashian). Give me a pair of silk pajama style pants and I’m in heaven. Same goes with a bathrobe. Therefore I am particularly into duster coats for Fall ’16. The silkier, the better. However, I am not opposed to wool either. The lighter fabric of a silky coat makes an ideal transition piece for fall and its loose fit is universally flattering. In fact I think every women should own one. Or two
