Purple Passion 2007-08-18 20:26:00 The Cheap Chica made an excellent point about purple. Purple
(and jewel tones in general) are a great way to spice things up, not to mention a welcome deviance from the usual "autumn leaves" colors of fall - and you can't get much more purple than this cute pop-over hoodie from Aeropostale!

Nice knockers! Door knocker earrings are back! 2007-08-24 22:28:00 My fave accessory of the moment, door knocker earrings are going to be huge this fall and in more ways than one.

Monochromatic Fashion Gone Wild 2007-08-29 09:56:00 If you don't wanna stress over mixing and matching the perfect outfit, monochromatic is the way to go, but avoid that overly solid look by throwing in a few different textures and accessories to jazz things up. This mustang brown sweater dress from the Gap gets a boost from some très chic snakeskin with the clutch and pumps plus some goldtone accessories for added pizzazz. I just love the oversized Zuri earrings from AllTheRage! Ethnic jewelry creates a sophisticated, worldly air and is the perfect way to round off this look.
