Fall fever has officially arrived! I was recently invited to get an exclusive sneak peak into what's coming to fashion this fall at the Belk Fall Fashion Tour hosted by Arlene Goldstein, VP of Trend Merchandising and Fashion Direction for Belk. For all of those lost as to what will be "in" for fall and what will not, don't worry Belk has all the answers! From a selection of designer brands including Trina Turk, Ralph Lauren, Vince Camuto, Dolce Vita, Sam Edelman, Pink Tartan and French Connection, Arlene showcased a variety of hand-selected outfit and accessory options perfect for fall. The three most impactive style statements were: Complex Simplicity, His is Hers and Rebel Rebel.

Complex Simplicity
New proportions, shape shifts and new age tailoring are just a few of the details that define this ultra-modern message from oversized and boxy silhouettes to exaggerated sleeves. Textiles are innovative. Patterns go graphic, so count on bold contrasts.

His is Hers
His is Hers promises recast classics and a man style mash-up with a quirky kind of coolness. With a feminine twist, borrowed from the boys has never looked better. Check out the Wine List of Fall’s favorite color palette: sangria and other exotic reds all the way to deep burgundy, merlot and mulberry.

Rebel Rebel (my favorite)
Break out of your fashion comfort zone and celebrates a fierce fem that wants to break a few rules, in a good way! Expect some unexpected pairings: leather and lace, winter florals and British plaids, feminine silhouettes and moto detailing. A passion for plaids, chokers, bold statement necks and cuffs in burnished metals, studded and belted ankle boots, and over the knee boots are just a few of the add-ons that make this trend so exciting.

Arlene also presented a list of "Most Wanted" items for not only women, but men as well for the upcoming season (Listed Below). So if you're not as privileged as some may be to purchase each and every thing beautiful and fashionably acceptable this fall, at least you can select a few items that will have you just as stylish and fabulous as all of the other fashionistas out there. Did I mention that after seeing Arlene’s fall forecast, guests went home with Belk swag bags featuring brands such as Estee Lauder, Jules B, Michael Kors and Philosophy? I am in love with my Jules B bracelet!... yeah ;)  #Winning!
