Fall Fashion Trends 2014- Back To School Fashion

Hey guys! This is going to be the official end of my back to school series as I am off to college tomorrow. I know that this summer's back to school series has been a bit less fashion focused than this blog usually is but its all good. And! Today, I am going to run through a bunch of different trends for this fall that you can deff use when planning your first day outfit. Not goina lie, I was planning on this post being a first day outfit ideas post but all of my fall cloths are in my trunk so I couldn't really take the pictures. (Needless to say this disclaimer but I do not own or took any of the pictures used in this post). SO, I decided to just go with the trends of the season and hopefully, this post will inspire your fashion picks for the season.

Boyfriend Jeans and Wide Leg Jeans
Lets be honest, the skinny jean came into style about 10 years ago and it really hasn't gone away. However, it has finally started to be phased out. I don't know about you guys but personally I hated the spandex jeans and I am so happy that they aren't the only jeans in the stores anymore. While skinny jeans are still totally acceptable to wear in public, wide leg and boot cut jeans are no longer on the black list of fashion. They are deff in the stores and will deff be seen out and about. In addition to these two old come back styles is the more modern Boyfriend jean which is so comfortable and honestly, everyone should own a pair. I certainly predict that in the next year or two we will be seeing the wider leg, more baggy jean come back into vogue and the skinny jeans go into the storage bin. So 2000's.



High Waisted Everything
Lets be real, the low waist Brittney Spears jeans of the late 90's early 2000's has gone goodbye for now. Skirts, jeans, pants and even dress waists have come up significantly. This fall, I challenge everyone to try something high waisted. I know some people do not think that they can rock the high waist line because of their height, but that is a lie. I am pretty short, so I feel your pain, but there is something high wasted that is flattering on everyone and I think that you will only be more confident for successfully trying this intimidating trend.


Crop Tops Over Everything
Put away those long tunic's that were everything two years ago. The crop top is here. The crop top goes in phases. It is either considered slutty because low waisted pants are in style, or it is considered high fashion because high waisted pants are in style. The high waisted pant is back, so feel free to go out in a crop top! You will look fab! (Although, if you are under 14, you really should not wear a crop top if it shows skin. That is inappropriate for your age even if high waisted pants are in style.)


Big Hair (Its About Time!)
The 1980's is always associated with curly and big hair. But soon, the late twenty teens and the twenty twenties will be associated with it as well. Since the 80's, straight hair has been all the rage. With the inception of the flat iron, there was really no excuse for curly hair right? Us girls with naturally curly hair fried it every day in those heat contraptions trying to get it to look natural and not greasy. And god forbid if it kinked up...that was like every middle school brat's nightmare. Even the girls with naturally poker straight hair flat ironed it. Say goodbye to those good old days because big hair is back. The curled hair has been preferred to the straightened hair for occasions I would say for at least two years now. Following curled hair always comes the preference for naturally curly and permed. Just last weekend, my hair dresser told me that they all were taught a class in how to recreate the big hair styles of the 1980's that are coming back into vogue. Let us curly girls all say hallelujah together!


Combat Boots 
I really don't have much to say about this trend except that it came about last year and is certainly sticking. Uggs have had their moment in the sun.

That is about it for this post. I hope that you all find amazing back to school outfits and that you all have enjoyed this year's back to school series. 
xoxo

Project Runway 10-15-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers gave members of the Project Runway crew a makeover. Hey guys! Welcome to this week's Project Runway Recap Review! We are getting closer and closer to fashion week each episode and the competition is getting tight. At this point, any of the designers could go home. Last week was packed with drama...but...its a new week, and a fresh slate, so lets get started. Challenge: The five remaining designers will make an outfit inspired by the New York City bridges (Queensborough, Brooklyn, Manhattan). The designers were assigned a bridge from the black bag of doom. Each designer created a textile with a 3-D printer that they had to incorporate into their garment. This is an Avant Garde challenge. Thoughts In The Workroom:  I'm not so sure what I think about 3-D printers...comment down below and let me know what you think about them (in general, not just in fashion). Candice made a good choice not using black again this week. Designers wh...

Is The Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment Worth the Hype?

 Hey Fashionista's! Today we are going to talk all about Hailey Bieber's Rhode Skincare line. This is not sponsored, I just really wanted to talk about these products. This semester in my public speaking class, I taught a unit all about persuasive speaking. My goal was to make the topic of persuasive speaking more relatable by showing how prevalent it is in our modern world. What was the product I brought in to show the power of persuasive speaking in the "influencer era"? You bet it was the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment. If you are a longtime reader, you know I rarely talk about skin care. Actually, I have probably never talked about skin care. That's because I don't really know what to say. I don't ever buy the trendy products because I am allergic to so many of them and if not, they make me break out. BUT Hailey Bieber got me- talk about effective persuasive speaking. I watched a few videos on YouTube of her using the products and talking about their ing...

Best Sustainable Brands of 2023

 Hey Fashionistas! Recently, I have been trying to make better fashion/beauty choices for the environment so I thought I would share some of my favorites with you. None of this is sponsored (although, if you're one of the brands I mentioned- hi and please feel free to reach out). Garnier: I wanted to start out with Garnier because they are not only an environmentally friendly brand but they are also my favorite beauty brand of all time. Garnier is a holy grail for me. I discovered this brand when they were featured on Project Runway many years ago and they completely changed my confidence. I use so many of their products on my hair: Mouse, Curl Cream, Hair Spray, Hair Gel, Shampoo, Conditioner, Conditioning Masks, etc.  Recently, I have switched from the traditional shampoo bottle to the shampoo bar and I am so glad that I did. I still get that Garnier glow to my hair while using less unnecessary plastics. Other Garner Fructis shampoo and conditioner bottles are made partly fr...
