*Fall 2011 Trend Report*
Bright-Colored Leather (With nude accessories!)
Bright-Colored Leather (With nude accessories!)
These pictures from red-carpet events feature three actresses sporting the new leather trend. They all manage to wear nude accessories to tone down their daring dresses. I love this trend, but sometimes it can be a little overwhelming! If these dresses are a little bit out of your comfort zone, opt for a leather jacket or accessories.

Mustard Hues
It is really hard to pull of a mustard color because it is not flattering for the majority of skin tones. If you happen to be blessed with the right skin tone (see Blake Lively above in a deep mustard-colored leather dress), there are a lot of fun ways to rock this color.
I love this blouse because it is such a perfect fall piece! Wear it with skinny jeans, texting gloves, a scarf, and some camel- colored boots to stay warm!
O.P.I in Need Sunglasses? from the Brights Collection
I am planning on ordering this off of J.Crew.com! It is currently on sale for $24.99 and I love it! It is a really safe way to follow the mustard trend because it isn't too obnoxious!
Polka Dots
This trend was send head-to-toe on the runways! Both Marc Jacobs and Diane von Furstenberg styled their models in similar prints (seen below). Because I'm not a huge fan of polka dots, I recommend to keep it simple with a polka dot blouse or scarf.

I love this shirt from Anthropologie. It is currently $98 dollars.
This is the exact same shirt as the one above, but it is in mustard yellow! If you are in the mood to follow two trends at once, I recommend getting this blouse.

This is another really cute option from Anthropologie. Polka dots are really overwhelming sometimes, but Anthropologie has such cute pieces!
