I can hardly believe it is August. While I love the warm weather and want it to stay around for a while, I thought it would be fun to look ahead to some fall fashion trends.
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is going on until August 6th, and I thought I would share with you some early fall trends if you like to shop ahead for the season.
Ruffles And Bell Sleeves
Ruffles and bell sleeves seem to be popular for fall. You can find them on dressier tops, sweatshirts and dresses. Here are a few pieces showcasing this trend.
Knots And Ties
I really like how casual tee shirts and sweatshirts are being given a fun dressier feel this year with bottom ties and knots.
Bare Shoulders
The bare shoulder trend is still going strong into early fall. As you can see here, it is on everything from blouses and sweaters to sweatshirts and dresses.
Cardigans
This is more of a fall closet staple rather than trend. Cardigans are my best friends during cooler weather, because I don’t like having to wear or lug around a heavy coat or jacket. I like that they are softer and cozier. They are just so easy to layer with a short sleeve shirt underneath. Then, I can slip them on and off when I get chilled or have a hot flash! LOL
Skinny Ankle Jeans And Raw Hems
Skinny jeans are still the mainstream. Many are ankle length with raw edge hems. Nordstrom also has many good deals on designer jeans.
Booties
Booties with open heels, open toes, cutouts are trending for early fall. There are also many perforated styles. I really like that they provide warmth when it gets chilly, yet keep your feet cool during the warmer days of early fall.
Here are a few more items on sale that I thought would were cute. There are also some handbags on sale at great prices, especially if you are looking to invest in a nice one for the upcoming season.
I have had an unusual summer this year! My youngest son had to have surgery on his arm. He injured it the very first day of his wrestling camp back in late June! He will make a full recovery and is doing very well. Needless to say, this event has greatly impacted his summer activities!
