fringe-tastic Fall

Leave a response ->

There is something so sexy about fringe and how it dances with every move you make. It goes to the heart of American style, along with denim and a classic white tee. The fringe of this season has graduated to the next level. High end designers like Gucci, Prada, and Thomas Wylde have used the best materials and design to create “über” fringe fashion. Retail shops like Asos, Topshop, and dELiA’s have fabulous fringe styles at more affordable prices. You don’t have to be completely country, or even a little cowboy to pull of the fringe of Fall 2008. Don’t go overboard; choose one item to showcase. A bag is a great way to pop in some fringe. Throw it over your shoulder and you immediately look current. Or pull on a pair of black boots over your jeans, and you’re look is a bit more modern and urban. To pull it off, you’ve got to love the piece you buy. That way, your love will inevitably enhance your creativity with the item. Enjoy!

      Fringe, fringe, fringe! I love fringe! This post allows me to come out of the closet about it!

      Since I live in Texas, I almost never wear fringe. I love that Topshop jacket and both the Nine West and Thomas Wylde bags. Is this big for fall?! Am stockpiling my September issues as they arrive for my upcoming travels...
    • Big for Fall! I loved the fringe thing in the early 90's .. but have been reluctant to go for it again. However, I'm going for it this season-probably a bag.
