Spicy colors for autumn trends

10/2/2017

In the UAE I was inspired by the vibrant colors and smell of the souk, which a traditional market. Look at the spices and herbs like cumin, paprika, saffron, seeds and nuts, the warm shades are also in harmony with the fall trends. Don't be afraid of dressing colorful, autumn is not about black and gray to me. Certain rules apply in the Emirates, dress code is relying on the respect for the culture and the religion and it applies all the public places. Avoid short and mini tops, cover your knees and shoulders.

In this chapter I was focusing on outfits at work: blouses, trousers, dresses, elegant coats, booties and matching accessories.

I'm showing you two types of dresses, all are trendy and chic wear. Tweed is always in fashion to me, nice texture, fall colors. This season flowers are not so girly and bright, but moody and dark.

Handbags

Tote bags are bigger this season, than usually. The size really matters, the bigger, the better, I can easily fit my stuff in there. Pouches here are made of soft leather, it can even complete your evening look after work. Top handle bags look so businesslike to me, best choice for your work outfit.

Bag accessories

How to make an old bag look trendy? Design it with bag accessories and charms! I'm falling in love with these pieces, any of the charms would look great on a nude bag for instance.

Shoes

If it comes to shoes, I like quality pieces. Whatever I see on the runways each season, on my blog and also in my private life I'm focusing on wearable pieces. Block heel is big trend this fall, pointy ankle boots with low or high heels look elegant and great at work or even for an occasion in the evening. Velvet shoes are on the runways everywhere, the texture is shiny, soft and sophisticated. Loafers are modern and comfortable choices.
