Plaid is a huge trend this fall, so when it came time to choose my outfits for New York Fashion Week, plaid seemed like a no-brainer! When I spotted this plaid skirt by ALC, I knew it was not only perfect for fashion week, it would be ideal for my fall wardrobe.

Since the plaid has black, putty, and grey in it, I decided to pick up the black for my top. It felt “New York-ish” to me. Here at home in the suburbs, I would prefer to add a pop of red to the plaid in the skirt for a top. Now, to find the perfect red top for this skirt. . .

The sleeveless top is perfect for early fall weather. When the weather starts to cool down, the addition of a leather jacket is all this ensemble will need to transition to cooler weather. This top will also look cute with flare jeans and boots for casual fall days.

I wore this outfit on day four of New York Fashion Week in September. This was a busy yet fun day. I started the day off with Fashion Shenzhen, then attended RewardStyle’s Rooftop Party, then I had FTL Moda, Georgine, Vivienne Hu, and Art Hearts Fashion. Stay tuned for my coverage of these shows!

This outfit was easy to move in; making it ideal for a busy day of running around mid-town and lower Manhattan. The skirt was comfortable and cozy. I can imagine it in cooler weather with boots and a cozy, ivory sweater. Now, we just need some cooler weather here in the Bay Area!

Day three of New York Fashion Week was a busy day! I chose this flowing dress to combat the unsettled weather, and remain comfortable while running around the city attending shows and appointments.

I started the day at Kendra Scott’s showroom where I was able to view the fall 2015 collection, and preview the new winter 2016 collection. I cannot wait to share the winter collection with you in October!

After Kendra Scott’s showroom, Laura (from Have Need Want) and I popped into the Tresemme salon and tamed our humidity laden heads. They gave me a fabulous blow-out which tamed my hair for the rest of the day, and Laura came out with an amazing braid! Now if I could only replicate this process at home. . . hmmm.

Some of my favorite shows were on Saturday. I attended Jay Godfrey, Francesca Liberatore, Monique Lhuilier, and Son Jung Wan. Each show was so unique, and presented a fabulous collection for the spring 2016 season. Watch for my coverage of these shows!

This dress by BCBG was perfect for the day. It was lightweight and easy to move in. I was able to run around town fuss-free. It did not wrinkle, and allowed for a range of movements throughout the day. Squatting to photograph Laura’s outfit? No problem! Climbing in and out of a giant SUV Uber? No problem! Sitting on a cramped bench at a show? No problem! Love that 😉

I am excited to have this dress as part of my fall wardrobe. It is lightweight enough for our Bay Area fall weather; which can be warmer than summer temperatures. It will also look cute in late fall, when the temperatures dip into the 70’s and 60’s, with a leather jacket thrown over it.

Stay tuned for my coverage of the shows I attended at New York Fashion Week!

During New York Fashion Week, Kendra Scott opened her showroom up to appointments; allowing me to view the current fall 2015 collection. Kendra Scott also displayed the upcoming winter collection which will debut mid-October. (Watch for my coverage of this collection in October!)

Kendra Scott’s fall 2015 collection features variations on her classic collection; as well as new pieces which are sure to become instant classics. Many of the fall pieces are made with white howlite, or black banded agate; which puts an edgy spin on classic black or white. These pieces work well with any color combination; making them versatile and easy to wear this fall season. Love that!

I am in love with the white howlite pieces. I have a pair of earrings, a bracelet, and a necklace from Kendra Scott’s fall 2015 collection which are made from white howlite and set in silver. They work well with my summer into fall wardrobe, and also work perfectly with my fall wardrobe. Since they are white, these pieces will work well in any season.

Many of the pieces from Kendra Scott’s fall 2015 collection work well with pieces from previous seasons. This allows for easy layering.

Kendra Scott fall 2015 also shows mixed metals for the autumn season. Kendra Scott has mixed together silver, rose, gold, yellow gold, and black metals for the fall season. This adds to the versatility of her collection as it can be mixed and matched with almost anything. It also makes her collection easy to travel with. I wore this bracelet set everyday in New York since it matched all my earrings. Loved it!

Here are my favorite pieces from the Kendra Scott’s fall 2015 collection. Stay tuned for her winter collection which I will feature in October!
