With so many trends out there to choose from I really wanted to do a fun post on Wear This Not That. There are certain trends that come out each season that are more of a fad than a trend. Trends are those things that are trending in popularity and stick around for awhile but fads are things that come and go pretty quickly. The trends that I am saying Not to Wear are trends that you might like and if so, that’s great. I am not saying that you should not purchase them if you really like them. Just don’t feel like you have to just because they are a trend.  There are some great comparable items that you could purchase that would last…

Are you wanting to try something different than your skinny jeans because everyone is talking about giving them up?  I don’t recommend giving up your skinny jeans but I do want to encourage you to try new things! This fall seems to be the season for the more loose fitting jeans. Some of them are called baggy jeans, tapered jeans and 90’s vintage jeans. They are not totally baggy but definitely looser than a skinny or regular straight leg. They are usually high waisted, loose in the top area and have a relaxed leg. The majority will also be ankle or cropped with a few options out there in a full length. I have provided some outfit examples for you below that come from my…

Fall 2021 is upon us and there are so many great trends this season in all categories of fashion! I am particularly excited about the handbag trends this season because there are so many new ones on the scene.  I also think there is a little bit of something for everyone. If you are in the market for a handbag this season or just want something fun to add to your fall outfits than you should check some of these out.  There are some really trendy styles like the oversized and mini options but there are also some classic styles like chain straps and quilted materials. Check out my video below if you have time! https://youtu.be/Kwy5eNj26TQ Quilted & Puffy Bags Quilted and Puffy…

How do you feel about the oversized looks we have going on this fall season?  Along with the oversized tops and jackets, we have the challenge of styling slouchy bottoms. To create the best looks, keep in mind the bottoms are the loosest around the hips and thighs so you will want to find tops to pair with them that do not cover or add any bulk to this area. Since we have been so use to skinny bottoms for the past several years, it takes a lot more thought in order to style these slouchy choices. But with just a few tweaks you will be the most stylish girl in town! https://youtu.be/g2-TT5ACdvE Slouchy Tapered Casual Pants I found myself really loving the loose…

Fall 2021 shoe trends are all about being chunky!  I know that doesn’t sound appealing but it is what it is, right?!  Chunky soles have been on the upward trend for a few seasons. But don’t loose hope if you don’t like the chunky soles because there are still some styles you can choose that don’t have a chunky sole. You can also decide how much “CHUNK” you actually want to have. I was surprised by two of the trends this fall and winter season.  Clogs and cowboy boots! I had heard these were going to be in this season and I didn’t believe it.  But lo and behold they are showing up everywhere! I would love to know in the comments below or on…

Fall selections will hit stores anytime now, so I wanted to show you what you should expect to see with the energizing pantone color trends for fall 2021/winter 2022.  Two colors were chosen for color of the year this year and they are Illuminating and Ultimate Gray which are included in this palette. The other chosen colors help to create a vibrant yet practical palette that is sure to bring some creativity to your outfit choices this season. The emphasis on neutrals is not as great this fall as it was for fall 2020 and spring/summer 2021. I still think you will see lots of neutrals especially in olive green (a classic color choice) since it’s already showing up everywhere for late summer. It was…
