FALL FASHION TREATS
Fall is only a few days away and this can only mean one thing… so long strappy dresses, cropped tops and other delightful goodies that made our summer days look brighter and beyond fashionable… it’s time to bring back in the spotlight the furry coats, rain boots and chunky knits, some of them long forgotten in the back of our closets, some others waiting patiently on the rack of the stores, to be bought and light-up our gloomy days. Although I’m more of a summer gal and shopping for the warm-season is one of the first things I would mention if asked about my best-loved activities, I would not be able to overlook the new-season collections and the abundance of fashion-forward goodies waiting in the stores, begging me from behind the display windows to offer them shelter in my tiny wardrobe – unable to take home everything I could ever wish for in the season to come, I decided to start with a few essential pieces, that mixed and matched with stuff from the past seasons have the power to upgrade my outfits in a matter of minutes. Hoping you will find inspiration in this essentials-buying list useful, I posted it down below. ENJOY!
