New York Fashion Week may be showcasing the latest trends for S/S17 but for most of us, we’re still thinking about F/W16. As we make our way into the middle of September, it’s time to put away our summer clothes and start thinking about the new purchases we want to make for a stylish Fall update. Let's focus on the accessories and shoes that will elevate your style this winter.

Shoes

The lazy backless loafer has been rocked by numerous celebrities and runways in the last few months. Thanks to Gucci’s Princetown number, this shows no signs of slowing down. And what with mules all over the catwalk, it only adds to it’s style status. The lazy loafer is embellished on the front and then designed backless for comfort. It’s exudes a laid-back cool vibe that’s relaxed but ever so stylish. Sienna Miller and Kendall Jenner have been sliding into this style in recent months. The lazy loafer looks great with both jeans and flowing midi skirts. If you want something a little more elegant for Fall consider investing in a pair of pointed lace up boots. There’s a lot of lacing detail going around on both clothes and shoes for F/W16. Pointed shoes have made a huge return to the catwalk. Although we are still seeing some rounded options, if you want to be on trend, you gotta be on point! For extra fashion points invest in a pair of lace-up boots in an extravagant fabric such as velvet, and a rich colour such as burgundy or plum. Slightly Victoriana but bang on trend. Wear with both jeans and maxi dresses. And the world is your oyster with heel height. You can go block, high or even wedge. Search online for Nordstrom Coupon Codes if you want to get a luxury addition to your shoe closet at a more affordable price.

Accessories

Yes, it’s true, the devil is in the details. Elevate your style with statement accessories to make a stylish impact this Fall. We all know that accessories can make an outfit. This Fall the choker necklace is back in fashion. Choose one in matte gold or silver for a glamorous look, or go gothic with velvet or black satin. It’s certainly a nod to the nineties, but it’s also very ‘now’. And if you thought fishnets were just for the bedroom or dodgy 80’s workwear, you’re missing a fashion beat. This season cute little fishnet socks are paired with loafers and mini shoe boots and worn under jeans. And remember when Carrie Bradshaw used to wear all manner of extravagant brooches on her fashion finds? Well, the brooch is back. But this year it is more elegant and refined. Think heritage, pearl, or vintage animal. And go mid-size with exquisite embellishments. Wear on dresses, turbans, belts and jackets for instant style points. Want one more to add to your fall accessory update? Go with a faux fur bag. Choose a clutch or a full on bag to up the ante for a glamorous look.
