I attended my first fashion show!!! Our local mall hosted Fashion Rules, an event sponsored by mall retailers to showcase fall fashions and trends. I put together a laid back, though pulled together outfit to wear to the event (easy V-neck white tee, dark red flare pants, gold and rose gold bangles, gold owl earrings, black heels, a mustard yellow belt, and a matching cross body bag - if you must know). I must've looked like I knew what I was doing because as I parked myself at the end of the catwalk, poised with my iPhone to insure good picture taking opportunities, I caused some of the models to turn my way and pose. Hehehe... I was in my glory.
Anyway, here are the pictures I took from the event. I'll comment as I go.

| This look is from Joyce Leslie. I liked the rocker vibe. |
|
 |
| From GAP. Layers are in! |
|
 |
| In my opinion, this look has too many layers. Well coordinated, but impractical. |
|
 |
| Plaid is very in this Fall for men and women! |
|
 |
| A look at evening wear! Not sure how I feel about this guy in purple, but he thought he was hot stuff. He posed AT me. LoL! |
|
 |
| This suit is sleek! |
|
 |

 |
| Blazers are HUGE this Fall. I like it in red with the tuxedo inspired lapels. |
|

| This suits him. |

 |
| That's right! Show your stuff! |

I enjoyed the show. I wish more stores had participated. But I had fun scoping out their fall selections afterwards in stores. :) In the near future, I'll do an overview of the big trends for Fall. One thing I am seeing A LOT of already is exaggerated houndstooth. I am liking it amped up in a larger print. I feel enlarging it has given it an updated look that will appeal more to the younger crowd.
In my perusing, I scooped up this scarf from Forever 21. It immediately caught my eye. It also comes in traditional black and white as well as blue and black.I can't wait to use it! Stay tuned for more!!
