Moody Picks – Window Treatment

Fashionistas love a good pattern, especially one that is bold and graphic like the windowpane print.  This pattern is also referred to as the grid print or the checkered print.  But make no mistake, whatever you call this trendy print, it’s a pattern that’s here to stay.  This simple print is a perfect twist on stripes and a checkered plaid. Have you tried this trend yet? If not, then I recommend that you treat this print like any other stripe pattern. You can mix large and small windowpane prints together, pair it with a floral print or even wear the print from head-to-toe for a really bold look. Right now, you can find this unique and edgy print in most retail stores, especially in a classic black and white combination. Check out some of my picks below and let me know what you think.

Moody Picks – Falling for Fringe

The first trend that I wanted to talk about is fringe. The fringe trend is still going strong this year probably because it’s one of the easiest and most versatile looks to wear. There are simple fringe styles for an everyday look and some wild and modern styles for a weekend or an evening look. If you don’t think that you may be ready to wear a whole fringe outfit, then try wearing one piece at a time like a skirt or a sweater. Or you can keep the outfit simple with jeans and a tee and work in some fringe accessories like a pair of boots, a scarf or a purse. What do you think about this trend? Will you be rocking fringe this fall? Well, here are 16 of my favorite pieces that will surely add some fringe benefits to your closet. Let me know what are some of your favorite in the comments below. Also if you have a chance, check out my Pinterest page for additional fringe inspiration.

Moody Picks – Falling Into Fall

As much as I don’t want to admit it, summer will be officially over before we know it.  I mean seriously – it’s really soon.  Mark your calendars because the first day of fall is next Wednesday, September 23rd.  Even though the weather doesn’t get cooler here in Florida for another couple of months, I’m really looking forward to the fall weather and of course fall fashion. 

I haven’t posted a Moody Picks in a while, so I thought that in honor of fashion week it would be fun to start a series called Falling Into Fall.  In this series, I’ll discuss some of fall’s biggest trends that I’ve seen in recent magazines and on the runway.  So be sure to come back for my picks of 7 of the fall’s hottest trends for 2015.
