Fall Fashion 2013 Color Guide!

This fall season, everyone will be asking what the new color trends are... Since they vary every year and according to what's in style, we all need the 411. Here are a few of the must-have colors for fall in a color guide made just for you.

Must have color number one: Mocha.
Also, another name for warm, rich dark brown. This color has, and always will be a fall staple color. It's warm, and cozy and just a color everyone looks great in. You can accent this color with pretty much any other color, and it'll look great any way. If you only get one color in this guide, grab this one!

Must have color number two: Raspberry.
This color is beautiful in any season. It's really great for fall because it's a warm toned color which makes it fun, but still cozy. This color is great for not only accenting neutral colors, such as brown, but wearing by itself. It's the perfect color for any fall day, and it'll definitely catch someones eye.

Must have color number three: Orange.
Now, this is a bit broad, because orange can mean "bright orange road sign", or 'warm, cozy, pumpkin pie".
Let's take the pumpkin pie. Bright orange is definitely a no-no. It doesn't compliment the season and it's just tacky. Warm tones of orange are a definite yes. Orange is obviously a staple color for fall, because of the pumpkin patches, jack-o-lanterns, and it's the main color in the orange-and-black Halloween color duo. When I think of fall, I think of orange, the trees turning orange, pumpkins, the whole shebang. If you wear orange this season, you'll definitely be trendy.


Must have color number four: Dark Blue.
This color is absolutely fabulous. It's such a great color, because it's orange's contrasting color. It looks great, when seen outside around the orange colored leaves. It also is great, because it's a nice difference between all of the warm colors seen around this time of year.

Must have color number five: Dark, Hunter Green.
This color is great for fall. Number one, it's hunting season, and two, it's a good contrast against the reds, yellows, and oranges. It's very nice and cozy and it really fits in well with the atmosphere. Green is always a good color to wear in basically any season, and it looks good with virtually any skin tone or hair color.

These colors are trendy and great to wear for this current fall season, and I hope you take this color guide and make it your own, finding outfits that you love for fall.

Stay Fab Xx

How to Beat that Cold Weather!

Since summer has melted into fall, and in a short while it'll be winter, I'm giving you some ideas on how to beat that chilly weather.

Idea number one: LAYER UP!
If you get cold, it's always a good idea to wear layers! a long sleeved shirt, and a jacket could suffice, but if it's really cold you can pair a coat and scarf with that. Jackets and Long sleeved shirts always give you that perfect sense of warmth without going too far. Scarves are always perfect too, because they'll look good with almost any outfit, and keep you warm!

Idea number two: Warm Drinks!
You can never go wrong with a cup of hot chocolate or a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks. Warm drinks are perfect for the fall and winter because they taste so good and they keep you warm at the same time. They also really get you into the mood of the season, and that's always good, right?
If you're not into fancy drinks, then a good old cup of coffee will do the trick too.

Idea number three: Make a fireplace!
Fireplaces aren't something that a lot of people use now a days, but if you want to be warm and cozy it's a good idea. Fireplaces are warm and cozy and they really get you into the mood of fall and winter. You could always have a little get-together with family and friends and sit around the fireplace and hang out. It's a good time to talk or just be together.

Idea number four: Just stay at home!
If all else fails, just stay at home! I know it sounds dumb and boring, but really, it's one of the best ways to beat the cold weather. Sitting on the couch, snuggled up in a blanket, reading a good book or watching a good movie seems like a pretty good idea to me! This gives you some alone time, and time to just relax and unwind.

Fall and Winter are both coming up very soon, so it's going to get pretty chilly outside. I hope you'll take these ideas and run with them, and I hope you enjoy these upcoming seasons! Stay warm, Stay happy, and Stay Fab. Xx
