I shared
my 10 Fall Essentials, but now realize it was a tad insensitive to dangle gorgeously expensive items at you when the
economy is dire. To make up for it, I present the budget shopper's guide to Fall. It has similar items to my original list, only cheaper versions.
We welcomed
the new season by creating a list of
Fab's 10 Fall Essentials. They're all the pieces we currently need to stay on top of our fashion game. Some may suit you, some may not, but we recommend them all.
Like
nude, lace has an elderly connotation. Alas, designer Miuccia Prada hated the fabric, so she decided to take on the big challenge of forming her
entire Fall collection out of it. Genius.
One thing you must remember to do this season is to adorn; I'm not suggesting draping yourself in loads of jewels, but make a statement.
This stunning
Tom Binns Neon Stone Cuff ($825) is sure to cause a rouse. I love the juxtaposition of the timeless black leaf motif and the
modern neon stone.
Thanks to
many of the Fall collections, what was once the symbol for grunge is now the sign of aristocracy. That doesn't mean you have to throw out your flannel shirt, but for Fall, invest in some prim and proper plaid. This
Banana Republic Silk Tie-Neck Plaid Blouse ($79) is the perfect place to start.
