Fall is in the air! At least in the world of retail! Not only is fall shopping in full swing, there are some fabulous summer sales going on!

My favorite sale item of the week is this pair of fabulous linen joggers! I first purchased these joggers last year. I found I lived in them due to their comfort and coolness on warm summer days. Now that I have lost weight, I purchased a new pair earlier this summer in a smaller size. I am living in that pair now! They are really the perfect go-to pants for summer; and I plan to wear them a lot next year too! Love! If you don’t have a pair yet, you can snap one up on sale right now.

Sneakers are the new IT shoe. While 1990s shoe styles are really hot right now, sneakers are turning into the must-have in everyone’s shoe closet. Whether you love sporty, limited edition release sneakers, or sparkling designer sneakers, you will want at least one pair in your fall shoe closet. I’m a bit of a designer sneaker girl, so this platform pair gets a lot of wear. If course, I have my eyes on additional pairs! I recommend investing in a pair of street sneakers this fall. You will love the comfort, and instant street cred.

In addition to sale joggers and street sneakers, the easiest way to add a little fall style into your life right now is through nail polish and handbags. Chain details, as well as 1990s style bags, are hotter than hot right now. I love this convertible bag which can be worn ’90’s style or cross body. Handbags are such a fun, and easy way, to update one’s personal style.

Can you believe we are halfway through August? Where did the summer vacation go? My kids are back in school, and we are all wearing summer clothing, while looking at fall clothing. The summer just flew by!

Despite it being the end of summer vacation, we are all still looking at lightweight clothing which can be worn in the late summer season, as well as the early fall season. After all, the first half of fall is just as hot as the middle of summer! These black linen joggers are a great, everyday pant, for warm weather. They are comfortable, and extremely lightweight. I live in my pair!

Also great on hot days, is this on trend tee with puff sleeves. It fits into both the summer and fall trends while offering lightweight comfort, and a fabulous price under $50. I live in mine!

Now that life is back to normal, convertible handbags are a huge must-have! Shoppers are seeking bags that can be worn multiple ways. This convertible black bag comes with two straps; one that be worn short, under the shoulder, and one that is cross body. Plus, it’s an IT bag under $300. Love that!

If you like a little bit of urban edge, this stripe convertible bag comes with a belt bag strap and a cross body strap. I wear mine cross body all the time, but it’s nice to have the belt bag option just in case. It’s very roomy, and adds spice to everyday outfits. Love!

If course, hot fall items such as nail polish, and chain bags, are easy to wear right now; despite the heat outside. They are a great way to update a summer wardrobe, without sacrificing comfort. Also hot right now, are staple IT items such as a fabulous belt, or these wildly popular sneakers. Love these too!

BAF Weekly IT List

fall 2021 street style trends

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: black puff sleeve top (on major sale) / fall nail polish: Dior, light grey, brown / chain pouch (hot IT bag) / light blue sweater (on major sale!) / ’90’s style hobo (hot IT bag) / chain detail booties (on sale under $100) / grey satchel /

It’s starting to look a like like fall! At least, inside the stores, and on retail websites, it looks like fall! Outside, well, that’s a different story. Despite all these new mask mandates, I am hopeful that the fall season will be business as usual around here!

That being said, I think you are excited about fall too! Not just for the cooler temperatures, but for the prospect of attending a football game, watching kids trick or treat, and everything else we love about the fall season. I know I am looking forward to these fall activities we missed out on last year!

Since fall is highly anticipated, it’s no wonder fall merchandise is flying off store shelves! Fall nail polish is hotter than hot, and these dark neutrals are highly on trend. Puff sleeves and chain details are huge for the autumn season, as well as slouchy handbags and structured ‘90’s hobos. Since it’s too warm to wear coats and heavy clothing, we can all add a little fall to our wardrobes right now through handbags, nail polish, and puff sleeves! Love that!

Looking for some deals on basics for fall? The Nordstrom sale is going on until August 8, 2021. Then, prices go back to regular retail. If you have been eyeing something, snap it up now! You can check out my favorites from the sale here.
