7 FALL TRENDS TO SHOP NOW

Or Autumn, if you want to be real picky...

Fashion week in NYC is starting to come close to its end, and whilst I've been more than happy drooling over the new trends that will emerge next Spring over Instagram and online, the fact of the matter is we haven't even hit Winter head on yet. With inspiration from the new collections that are looking forward to the new season it can feel a little same-old-same-old walking around high street shops recently. Whilst the catwalks are displaying fresh and innovative designs, shops seem stuck. And by stuck, I mean stuck forty years in the past. Are we ever going to emerge from this 70s trend alive, or must all our wardrobes be covered in tan furs and an assortment of orange and peach colours till the end of time? Whilst I am partial to a bit of fur, enough is enough! 70s seems to be a trend that has taken stores by storm. Instead of being a section of a shop, this trend covers the entirety of the whole shop and there doesn't seem to be one store out there at the moment (at least that offer affordable prices) that are willing to separate themselves from this mould quite yet.

With that said, I've rounded up a few trends you may be willing to embrace, that step away from the 70s but are just as chic and desirable.

TIE DRESS + LACE UP HEELS



This is probably one of my favourite outfits recently that i've posted. Put your hands up if you're also a fan of lace up heels?

My hands are firmly up- but with one condition. I think lace up heels are totally amazing, like totally. But they can look a little less than amazing depending on what outfit you pair them with. Short short skirts and tight tight tops paired with these kind of shoes are less fashion forward and more try-hard. Paired with something simple and elegant however I think they add an edge that most heels don't offer. They also make it seem like you've made a huge effort when really you've stuck a pair of shoes on and left it at that. I mean its not even as if you actually tie them up yourself, theres a zip for a reason... so lazy people like me don't have to spend hours panting and puffing trying to get some shoes on.
