What to Wear Fall '09
by shopamelie on March 08, 2010
I've held off making our Best of Fall'09 list because I wanted to see the spring shows before I decided on what was trend and what was "going forward", as we say in the biz. If I'm going to ask you to invest in jeans, jackets, sweaters, tees, dresses and shoes then I wanted to make sure that it 's a wise investment with "legs". So here's the best of Fall "09 that will take you through til Spring 2010.
1. The Jegging
No, not a typo , this is truly the coolest innovation in denim since the low rise. Soft as butter denim that is so stretchy it molds to your body like a pair of tights. Why you ask? Because it makes wearing slinky tunics and long fitted tee shirts so sexy and rocker chic. Easy to tuck into boots but, oh so much sexier with killer heels. Jeggings we love- Jbrand's Olympia and Goldsign's Zoe.
2.Heels, heels, heels and Boots
Sorry cute flats but, you wanna rock your style find yourself some heels with sass. Statement shoes strong in style are what every fashion girl is talking about. Booties, pumps and sexy slingbacks are front and center. If your wardrobe is lack luster then this is where you need to spend some serious shopping time. Amelie, long known for our small but stellar shoe selection, is getting the sexiest,chicest and hippest shoes in store this fall. Booties with heels in black and taupe, geometric gray platform pumps, motorcycle boots and more. Shoe's to watch out for JShoes, Industry and Pink Studio all affordable versions of ankle boots, platform pumps and platform sandals.
3.Motorcycle Jackets
Think Francoise Hardy or Amelia Earhart. Smart, fearless women who made history and did it with flair. Choose from faux leathers, real leather and fleece versions. Our pick faux leather with faux shearling trim in rich camels and dark browns. Not only are these styles more wallet friendly, they're PETA friendly too! In store September 10th. Check out Ryu's Motorcycle in Faux and Prodigal Daughter's wool blend.
4.Straight/Skinny Legged Denim
Skinny legged denim has been the cut du jour for a few seasons now and it's not going anywhere. I know there are many that would rather go commando than skinny but, you need to get over your fear! A well cut pair of skinny or straight legged jeans worn with the right shoe makes your legs look long, lean and sexy. Paired with boots , platform pumps and a jacket and you just transformed into Heidi Klum. Still thinking twice then try a straight leg ala Jbrand's 912 jean. Pencil legs, perfect rise, hot washes and proven track record make this the best selling jean ever. Anne Hathaway,Cameron Diaz,Rhianna, Reese Witherspoon and Courtney Cox all rock Jbrand denim. We also love Goldsign's Misfit in dark, sleek, over dyed denim.
5. Boyfriend Blazer
We all have been wearing boyfriend tees and jeans. Just in time to dress up our look is the boyfriend blazer. The boyfriend blazer isn't so much about oversize as it's about a little shoulder padding. I heard you! You won't be channeling Crystal Carrington. This is the tiniest, most imperceptible amount of padding that gives you just a touch of height. Perfect to pair with the skinny jeans and heels above.
Fall Fashion 2009 is about sophisticated and sultry wearable items that have versatility and impact. Cant' wait till you see!
