What' New for Fall Fashion? (2)

A break from heels 
Believe it or not, it's time to give your feet a break. Sneakers are taking the place of high heels. So wear sneakers to make a fashion statement. It's even acceptable to wear them with a skirt or dress.

Large turtlenecks
For those who are always cold, the turtleneck is back! This year, it looks like a large sock that covers your whole head.

Elegant becomes casual 
Do you think a shiny dress is only for a special dinner? This fall, material that sparkles can be found everywhere. Wear shiny pants and a white shirt or a fancy dress for casual events.

Matching doesn't matter
Layers of clothes, fur and crazy patterns of brown and orange are being worn over dresses. This style is for someone who likes wearing different patterns at the same time. The fun doesn't end when summer does.

Keep the fun going with these new autumn fashions.
