Get ready for fall!

Twice a year, Fashion Group International releases a trend report of the top styles to watch for. Here's a rundown of the trends for fall and winter, according to FGI:

Glitz and sparkle
We've been seeing a lot of sequins and sparkle lately, and the trend isn't going away anytime soon. Use glittery pieces as accents to easily incorporate them into everyday outfits. 

Menswear-inspired pieces
Look for feminine takes on traditional menswear, such as suit jackets and button-down shirts.

Military
Watch for military-inspired pieces, with brassy buttons and olive and navy colors.

Equestrian
Get your riding boots out - equestrian is in!

Conservative cuts
Watch for higher necklines and longer sleeves as the trends steer away from showing too much skin.

Burgundy
The "in" color for fall and winter is burgundy (specifically, oxblood). Use it as a main outfit color or as an accent.

Make sure to add some of these looks to your wardrobe, and you'll be ready when the cooler seasons begin!
