The summer season is flying by, and I am so ready for fall! I love the fall boots we are seeing for the cool weather season along with the timeless styles and return of color. Our neutral ensembles need a little pop for fall!

Summer nail polish is flying off the shelves, and fall nail polish will be here in a couple of weeks; so stay tuned!

This is the perfect time of year to take advantage of the Nordstrom Sale, which ends August 9. So if you like something, snap it up before it goes back up to full price! Here are my favorites from the sale:

Vintage handbags, and handbag styles from the early 2000’s are hot right now as well as classic bags. Also, the continuation of the anonymous handbag is holding tight. So, look for handbags which are high quality and don’t bear logos. There is no reason to pay for a name which lacks quality. Remember, quality is king!

The Nordstrom sale is in full swing, if you haven’t checked it out yet, you can see my favorites from the sale online here.

As we move through the summer season, and look towards the upcoming fall season, we are continuing to see plenty of neutral hues with pops of colors, and a few fun prints. It will still be a season of investment dressing, so continue to steer towards classic styles, high quality, and proper fit.

Suede is gaining popularity for fall, which it always does, but this year it just seems more inviting. Maybe it’s the soft, comfort factor we get from suede. Look for handbags, footwear and clothing items in soft suede.

Western boots are still hot as well as 1960s styles with lower heels. Another upcoming trend to watch is art deco. Think dropped waists and occasional touches of fringe. Although, that isn’t for boots. With a dropped waist, you will want a short heel and simple, smooth leather. Mary Janes will work too! More on that next month. . .

The Nordstrom sale is in full swing, and it’s a great time to pick up a few pre-fall items to refresh our wardrobes. You can check out my picks online here.

In nail polish news, summer nail polish has been flying off store shelves, and it seems “limited edition” will continue into the fall season. Dior and Chanel will introduce new collections in August; I will keep you posted! The common theme we are seeing for summer and early fall is pink! So, stay tuned!

Continue to invest in neutral hues. Pops of autumn color will emerge in the next month so you can round out your fall personal style.
