Tall Clothing Mall Newsletter Aug 30, 2012 |
Well it's official- fall fashion is upon us! The days here in New Hampshire are beautiful but there is an undeniable crispness in the air in the mornings and evenings...it's called FALL. Football is on in the background, and I have apple pie on the brain. :) Don't get me wrong- I'm still enjoying the last days of summer (went to the beach and the zoo this weekend!), but I'm excited about the new season also...and of course, the fashion that comes with it. To that end...
One thing I wondered over the summer is what hot trend will take the place of colored denim? I'm sure you're not surprised since we've featured colored denim so often! I've come to realize that it won't be going anywhere during fall, but some other options have sprung up. Such as, printed denim and colorful cords. If you're wondering how to wear these, here are some tips (and yes, the tips are very similar to the guidelines for wearing colored denim):
- For printed denim, keep your top simple. Either wear solids, layer solids, or wear a fine print that reads as a solid from a distance.
- As with any pattern, you can pick a color from the pattern to wear on top or as accessories. If that pattern ahs a variety of colors all in the same family, you could choose a complimentary color to match.
- Color blocking or color clashing is a great way to inject color into your wardrobe and mix things up! If you want to learn more about color blocking, check out
this post over on Tall Snob.
- If you're nervous about wearing a pattern on bottom, go with a subtle pattern like the one on the Citizens of Humanity Wide Leg pants. Or go simple on top with a solid colored cardigan or blazer.
Hello - This is Krista! Our family just finished moving from Colorado to Utah. We made the decision to move, packed everything up and actually moved in 2 weeks total! It was extremely fast as we had a deadline with school starting. So, I'm a little frazzled with getting kids into the right classes and I'm exhausted. At this point, I'm hoping to have our Internet hooked up any day. While I'm waiting, I have a spotty Internet connection from my smartphone hotspot. So bear with my about another week as I have lots of emails to return and personal shopping requests. I'll be back into a routine soon. :)
Back to Tiffany - Despite Krista's big move, she still had time to write a few posts! Check out TallSnob.com to see Tall Tuesday posts featuring a
beautiful tall blazer and 9 different picks from Peruvian Connection. I had so much fun writing this post regarding
military inspired fashion (always a fave!). And this post
tested my "no shopping until fall' resolve. A pair of jeans that makes you look a while size thinner? Yes please!
This week's partner spotlight is on Zappos
. We love Zappos! I include something from the site in nearly every newsletter and blog post. Why? The selection is amazing, the prices, the best on the web, the service incredible, and the shipping fast (and almost always) free. You just can't beat that. It's a tall person's dream since there are many tall Jean styles, tons of accessories (for when we just can't find tall clothing and need to spice up our outfits with something that fits everyone!), and
large size shoes. I could probably include a hundred "picks" from this site, but I'll keep it to a few. And since I love shoes and fall is the best time to update your shoe wardrobe, I'll focus there:
