Style: End Of Summer?

Last week was my students' first week of school - definitely a sign that summer is coming to a close here in the U.S.  I also kept seeing references to the approach of fall on blogs and in magazines, not to mention pumpkin-shaped planters full of chrysanthemums and bags of candy corn on display at the grocery store and bottles of Oktoberfest in the cooler at a weekend cookout.  It was all getting me a little verklempt - how can fall be coming when I haven't done everything on my summer bucket list? While it may feel like trick-or-treaters are coming, like, tomorrow, the first official day of fall isn't until September 23.  We still have more than a month of summer!  The best way to extend that relaxed, carefree summer feeling?  Pretty, light neutrals and metallics that will get you through Labor Day and into September.

Fall 2013: Taupe and Blush

One of my favorite trends toward this season is fashion that leans toward a pretty, muted color palette of taupe and blush.  These items are extremely flexible because they work like neutrals in your closet, combining effortlessly with the brown, cranberry, hot pink, gray, cognac, and black pieces that are this season's staples.  Here are a few ladylike pieces for fall:
