I've found myself in a love hate relationship with the trends this fall.
I haven't warmed up to the feathers, ruffles, or studs. I can take them in small doses but I look at some of the runway designs and think " how could you possible translate that to real life fashion?" Particularly for back to school outfits.
Are any of you incorporating lots of feathers or huge ruffles into your first day ensemble? (with the exception of maybe a headband)
On a happier note, I love love loveee the plaid and lace trends. I picked up my plaid shirt from American Eagle last spring and have been making a lot of use out of it and I also use it in menswear too.
And lace is so elegant I would love to get a lace dress for the semi formal our school has in late fall and for some reason I've really started craving a pair of antique lace gloves (for what I haven't decided yet)
This is a dress I just bought on Ebay

and the plaid shirt I was going for kinda a lumberjack thing..
Shirt - American Eagle
Shorts - Urban Behavior
Sneakers - Nike
Sunglasses - Canal St
Belt - Banana Republic
Also, to be fair since I know that there are a lot of stud, ruffle, and feather fans here are some things that caught my eye (for good reasons)
Studded belt, asos.com
Lacoste Gingham Check Ruffle Shirt
Hope by Kristian Alfonso Short Sleeve
Peacock Headband, etsy.com
Have an amazing weekend! I've promised myself I'm going to finish the first dress (out of hopefully many) I'll be making for the school year and the even bigger task of cleaning my closet. Hopefully I'll have amazingly organized pictures to present by monday

I LOVE that dress! it is totally something I would wear.
cute headband! I've been wanting to make one for myself .. I'm just too lazy I guess
ooo! That ebay dress is a great find :)
i've been wanting that headband for quite some time.
Oh I love the dress you bought! This is a great selection of items...I'm definitely a fan of all three :D
El vestido es genial! (tha's me trying to help you with your Spanish, jeehheh)
Your lace dress is gorgeous and I love your plaid top and shorts combo too!
That dress is just lovely! & I agree on the feathers, ruffles & studs. They can look wonderful on a runway, but it pretty much ends there.
Cute dress!
And as for first day back at school, I'd go easy on feathers and studs and ease them into your wardrobe as the season progresses.
But ruffles? Definitely!!
That dress is gorgeous, and the peacock headband it lovely. You should get it!
I really need a belt like this!!!
a kiss!!!
The white dress is super cute.I like the peacock headband too.
I love the plaid shirt and the dress ...studs and feathers are good in small doses.
feathers? why yes, I want people at school to mistake me for an escaped ostrich. Not. I don't pay a ton of attention to trends; I just buy what I like and what looks good on me. Sometimes this correlates with what's popular, and sometimes it doesn't.
Beautiful dress! I like a studded belt, a fringe bag and studs on shoes.
The only trends I am really buying in to this season are the ones for plaid and lace.
Possibly a few feather accessories, like the etsy headband.
I love your blog for it's questions, really gets one thinking.
Oh the dress is so adorable!
xx

It makes little difference what year a designer watches was manufactured or what the current fashion style is. A luxury watch from Bell & Ross watches becomes a continuous symbol that leaves a memorable impression. Breitling watches are considered to be among the best in fashion because they cater to number of different tastes.
