Summer is well underway, and so are the 40 degree temperatures. But believe it or not, this is the week when the PR companies host their Holiday previews! So even though I flounced in wearing a summer frock, I was forced to eat gingerbread and look at fur coats. (yeah, *forced).

Who am I kidding...seeing what's coming is one of the greatest rushes in fashion. Months before the items are available I get to see how each would benefit my Fall wardrobe. And in my opinion, Fall is the sexiest of fashion seasons...

I think we're all a bit guilty of thinking we live more luxurious lives than we really do. Many of us keep over the top dresses for that one special occasion that could take years to come along, instead of focusing on versatile accessories that can punch up any ensemble for years to come.

So for Fall, that's my plan...accessories galore!!

Two hot brands that really brought their game for fall were Brave Beltworks, and Head Mistress.

I've mentioned Brave before, but only because their belts are so bloody kickass. This fall, more than ever. 

Do you see that fringed belt? Tell me that isn't utterly gorgeous. And cuffs...though I was hard to convince at first, I've decided that cuffs are here to stay now that they've taken it up a notch and give a more high fashion feel.

Then come the fur and feathers...

Head Mistress is a clever little company who works with vintage fur as well as synthetic, so you can feel a lot better about popping some texture. 

This 'tit chapeau adds a vintage vibe to any photoshoot:

While these two-finger rings make you look like a cross between your crazy aunt and Boy George. In a good way...

 
 
Happy Hunting...
