Wearable Fall Trends?

[niener]

I agree a wine/dark purple, a grey or even a dark forest green would be a great way to incorporate the colored jeans look and still feel age-appropriate. If you pair colored skinny jeans with tall boots and a long sweater, that will cover more of the jeans and reduce how much of the color you see. I think it's hard to go wrong with tall boots in the fall. Chevron stripes really are everywhere, I almost wonder if we'll be tired of seeing them by fall.

Thirteen, I'm with you on riding boots. Actually any knee high boot is a friend of mine. I tend to get preppy in the fall and girly in the winter with some menswear peppered in.

I love love love fall fashion. Maybe it comes from "back to school shopping" as a kid, but when the weather turns cool I just want to shop!

Curegirl, I'm right there with you on the preppy and menswear clothes in the fall! I tend to wear a lot of dark jeans, soft sweaters, blazers and leather boots. I have a serious addiction to leather boots. I have a pair of medium brown knee-high Borns with a 3-ish inch heel, dark brown knee-high flat Fryes, and a pair of knee-high pearl gray Calvin Kleins with a super high heel. Plus a few pairs of ankle-high boots and booties... I wear them all with skinny jeans -- but any more, that's the only way I wear skinny jeans. Would you believe the skinny jeans trend actually started around 2006? I remember because I was visiting some friends in Chicago and went shopping with them and was really dubious about this whole skinny jeans thing. Now, I've gained a few lbs and they make me feel like a sausage, so I only wear them when I want to tuck them into boots.

Anyway, these are the boots I want this year: http://www.zappos.com/dingo-metro-chocolate. A little trendy, but I do already have the basics covered.

I love boots, but don't currently own a pair of hunters. A great pair is usually expensive (or maybe I am expensive?), but man...

DH made fun of the boots-over-jeans look for about a year and a half, but when he saw my boots weren't going away he came around . Now he even says "Well you don't want to cover up your nice boots with jeans, then you can't see them"

I want to come! All my shoes are falling apart! (Yes, I'm slinking away from the fashion thread now...)

Cheap boots for all the Texans!!

Seriously...there is a DSW near Bonnie Ruth's...drinking and boot shopping???

Just no cowboy boots. I know they are a "thing" here but I absolutely refuse to go there.

Yes! But I'm not getting rid of my Steve Madden suede cowboy boots. They are so comfy!
