Everyone knows that rules are meant to be broken, and the fashion world is no exception! It’s time to throw away any misgivings on fashion rules that you’ve held onto in the past. Here’s a list of new trends that defy the rules. Don’t be afraid. Embrace the change!
Pastels in the Fall
The fall season isn’t restricted to earth tones and dark colors anymore. Definitely look out for softer hues this season. Pastel shades are mellow and delicate, yet they still provide enough color for a stylish effect. The perfect way to transition this trend from Fashion Week to your closet is by investing in pastel scarves or totes. Check out our handbag collection for great finds!
Black and Brown
This might be a shocking revelation to some of you, but black and brown actually go together quite well! The perfect example is a pair of black jeans and brown riding boots. Don’t just work up the courage to break this rule for the fall though. We encourage you to wear black with brown all year long. We promise you won’t regret it!
White after Labor Day
You’re dying to wear your favorite pair of white pants, but Labor Day was a week ago. Should you listen to the fashion cardinal rule and not wear them? Of course not! White in the fall and winter is chic and modern. Just keep in mind which fabric you decide to wear. Lighter textiles like cotton and linen look out of place during cold weather. Instead, reach for white wool, cashmere, mohair, silk and leather.
Mixing Metals
In the past, people shuddered when they saw gold and silver together. Now we see celebrities and fashion authorities adorning themselves with everything that shimmers. The key to this trend is to make it look deliberate instead of random. Do this by stacking bracelets in varying widths and shades of gold and silver. You can apply this to rings as well. If you’re really feeling really bold, toss in some rose gold!
Mixing Real and Faux
Costume jewelry and faux diamonds were once tacky and gaudy, but now pieces look almost identical to the real thing. Mix them up with your real collection to add depth and texture to your style. This tip applies to fur and leather as well!

Bracelet stacking is an easy and fun way to make a major statement with your jewelry collection. It’s especially useful when you decide to keep your neckline bare while wearing certain outfits. There are three elements that every bracelet stack should have: a foundation piece, texture pieces and complementary pieces.

Accessoriesare critical to every outfit. The right embellishments are what can turn a plain look into a polished look. The key is to not look like you’re trying too hard. When you have too many clashing accessories, your look can seem overcrowded and unorganized. Instead, try to build flexibility into your wardrobe by getting accessories that look good with more than one outfit. You’ll be able to wear your new favorite trends without going overboard!
Necklacesare a fantastic way to embellish your look with class. Check out our Necklace Guide for more tips on which designs look better on certain necklines.
