Hello jubblies and lovelies! [Don't ask me why, I just suddenly thought of the word 'jubblies'] Hope everyone is having a great start to your week! So so so, is it me or did the year just pass us by so quickly that it is now ALREADY MID-SEPTEMBER??!! *gasp* Fast and Furious seems apt here and now rolls in my personal all-time favorite season: FALL/ AUTUMN *cheers* Fall is such a beautiful season. Sure, every season has its own beauty and wonders [and sometimes their 'wraths'; think sticky, sweaty, frostbite, blue fingers lol], but for me, it's all about falling for Fall. As per the title of this post, this shall be the start of my fall posts series:
Falling For Fall [FFF].
Fall, like I said, is my favorite season. Autumn leaves, warm pumpkin spice, and fuzzy sweaters while waiting for the winter cold to sweep Fall off its feet and into the another new season. Ironically [and Sadly], I don't enjoy the embrace of Fall where I live. *tear* lol but hey, all year round Summer-lovin' Singapore isn't all that bad either lol. ;) When I think Fall, I think of three simple words: Elegance, Style, Chic. And also tons of other words that come along with those that just make me all tingly inside. [think leather, boots, jackets, scarves, vampy makeup, burgundy, jewel tones and many many more *woohoo*] So to kick-off some FFF series fun, let's hit the fashion realms first. I'm gonna be talking about some Fall fashion trends of 2013 that would spice up your wardrobe and bring out the inner Fashionista in you. What better way to ease into the series than with things you have to wear as you walk out the door everyday? ;)
1) It's time to put on your [thinking] cap.
Hats are getting their fair share of attention this Fall and are appearing on the runways, with the likes of Kate Spade and Chanel. These trendy gems not only keep your head and ears warm and snug, but also gets the attention that you want. From the classic cozy beanies to the sleek and stylish Fedoras, the choices are far and wide should you wish to sport this trending fashion accessory to spruce up any Fall look.

2) Print Me Chic
Don't be afraid to rock some prints this Fall. Classic prints such as Houndstooth and Checks never go out of style for Fall. And who ever said that you can't embrace your animalistic side for Fall as well? Any one can stop traffic while adorning some fun animal prints during Fall and still be fit for the season. Be bold and stylish in Leopard, Zebra, Giraffe prints while maintaining some balance with darker backgrounds on your clothing and accessories. Not only for a girls' night out or a casual weekend date, these prints can be easily incorporated into your office wear without coming off as though are ready to party and go wild by the water cooler. Think along the routes of neutrals [be it background, or as a whole canvas with a small pop of print in your array of accessories of shoes, bags, watches etc].

3) Make the world jealous and Green with Envy
Emerald. Ethereal, Elegant and Ever-enchanting. Dubbed as colour of the year by Pantone for 2013, emerald-coloured fashion is here to stay. Be it your clothes, jewelry or bags, emerald is definitely a nice pop of stylish colour that you can add to your look. On the sidenote, if green isn't exactly your cup of tea, try other jewel tones such as amethyst and ruby [ooh lala]. They might just be right up your alley.

4) It's all about the layers
Fall is such a fun time to layer your pieces without having the possibility of being seen as overdone. However, the theme of the layering is important. Avoid piling on too many colours and patterns that would make you look like you are still stuck in the times of Spring and Summer. Keep it simple with a tiny pop of colour if you need it and patterns [as mentioned earlier, classics like Houndtooth and Checks or animal prints, even dark florals] should be also kept to a minmal. As for texture, keep it as streamlined and non-bulky as possible. Rule of thumb for this one here: thin and thin, sheer and sheer, thin and thick but never thick and thick.

5) Leather is STILL the new black.
Oh yea. Leather. On of my favourite textures and it never goes out off style. Leather doesn't mecessarily mean only jackets. Try incorporating it into your look with a cute pair of leather leggings or a bad-ass leather peplum. This beautiful material is just enough to add that edge, sexiness and danger to any outfit this fall. Not only should you take leather to new forms in clothing and accessories, colour is another aspect that you should not neglect. Classic black and brown leather can never be wrong but coloured leather such as burgundy, emerald and the all so sexy red might just be the thing you need to take your fall wardrobe to a whole new level.
