Hello everyone! My anticipation for Fall can barely be contained at this point. I get a twinge of excitement when I stumble upon apple cider and painted gourds in the grocery store, and the return of pumpkin spice lattes is practically enough to make the leaves change. Fall is also a wonderful time for us fashion lovers. It signifies that you can finally wear cute jackets and jeans without bathing in your own sweat! This fall, I am really excited to play around with heavier fabrics like neoprene and brocade. I am also loving the sporty-chic revolution, combining feminine skirts with sleek sneakers. My sporty-chic fashion board focuses on texture and shine as opposed to colors. Exploring new fabrics and shapes is a great way to mix up your look, and can be just as interesting as wearing bright colors. I paired a semi-sheer crop jersey top with a flared patent leather skirt. A fitted white jacket with abstract zipper features defines this look and makes it Fall-ready!

The sporty trend is fresh and fun, but what is a great outfit without some show-stopping accessories?! We get a glamorous pop of color from Gem Steady’s gorgeous

rosé amethyst and citrine cocktail ring. Sticking to one piece of statement jewelry plays along with the simplistic vibe of this outfit.

Adding luxe accessories to a sporty look gives it a dose of glamour and a sense of maturity. The Annabelle handbag by Kathryn Allen Couture is the ultimate dose of luxury. Playful white sneakers with bunny ear lips amp up the playfulness of this outfit and a funky pair of bedazzled violet shades top off our sporty-chic look. Some may say this outfit is risky. It’s outside of the box, and even a little kooky

! But life is too short to play it safe all the time. Have fun with your fashion! And remember to adorn yourself with Gem Steady everyday!
