Singlelista Style: Fall in Love with This Season's Fashion Trends


Ladies, it's time for another shot of Singlelista Style, and today's topic is FALL FASHION!

We'll forewarn you, by the time you reach the end of this post, you'll be dying to don these latest trends. 

Read at your own risk, but with no further delay, our fab fashion stylist Mia Tucker is here with the wardrobe essentials you'll need to look hot while the temperatures are cooling down this fall:

The Black Wedge Boot


MATT BERNSON RIP CORD WEDGE BOOT $246.00 WWW.REVOLVECLOTHING.COM  


Wedge Boots are all the rage this season!
 
I recommend purchasing a basic black pair that will carry you through the fall and winter seasons.
 
Platform wedges are a great way to add height and a little sexiness without trying too hard. Besides, you can wear them with jeans, leggings, skirts and dresses - basically everything!
 
These will give you major bang for your buck!
 
 
FINGERLESS GLOVES
 
 
LEATHER AND SUEDE FINGERLESS GLOVE BY ASOS $30.33. WWW.ASOS.COM



TARNISH FINGERLESS GLOVE $38.00 WWW.NORDSTROM.COM AVAILABLE IN 6 COLORS!
 
Fingerless gloves are a must for the edgy, cool, singlelista!
 
Go biker chic with a leather pair that is sure to look super cool with a leather jacket, or try a chunky knit version to compliment your everyday look!
 
PLAID SCARVES


AUTUMN PLAID SCARF $44.00 IN RED/GREY WWW.JCREW.COM



MARC BY MARC JACOBS BRODIE SCARF IN BRIGHT NAVY $128.00 WWW.PIPERLIME.COM
 
Plaid prints are making a comeback this season and there's no better way to add a touch of “grunge glamour” to your wardrobe than by throwing on a colorful plaid scarf!
 
Sporting a bright scarf can liven up the traditional dark colors in your fall wardrobe but most of all, its functional AND fabulous!
 
FUR HANDBAGS
 
MARC BY MARC JACOBS CHEEKY NICO MESSENGER BAG $498.00 WWW.SHOPBOP.COM
 

What’s not to love about this adorable, fuzzy, little cross-body handbag by Marc by Marc Jacobs?

A touch of fur can go a long way and is the ideal accessory to transform your look from fashionable to luxurious (without attracting the attention of PETA of course)!

Singlelista Style: Fundamentally Speaking


Guess what ladies? It's the first Saturday in August, and you know what that means?!

Today we kick-off our new Saturday series, Singlelista Style, where we give you all the info you need to turn heads everywhere you go.  The world is your runway ladies, so be sure to give your fans (and your critics!) all the fabulousness they're dying for!


To help you turn your sidewalk into a catwalk, we sought the  expertise of New York fashion stylist Mia Tucker.  Mia's fashion sensibilities never disappoint and we're so glad that she's decided to share some of the style cues she gives her clients in the magazine and fashion industry to the singlelistas here at The Singles' Salon!  


So, the next time you see your ex and he asks you how you're doing, tell him "I'm doing great. In fact, you know I  have my own personal stylist now!"  

We promised you that you'd always be V.I.P. here at the Salon.  No wristbands necessary ladies, it's just one of the perks of the fab and free life we live!


Today, Mia is starting us with the basics and giving us the 5 Must Haves for Singlelista Style!  Check your closets as you read along, and whatever you don't already have should immediately move to the top of your grocery list (Yes, I meant grocery. Singlelista rule #4327, choose fashion over food- ALWAYS!).


Alright ladies, let's get this fashion show on the road!


5 MUST HAVE’S FOR  SINGLELISTA STYLE!


1. A HAUTE PAIR OF JEANS


Fab fitting jeans are a must-have because of their versatility- they look great paired with a dainty blouse or a casual t-shirt, depending on the occasion. I recommend styles with at least 2% elastane for the best possible fit. What I love about this pair is that they have an 8” rise which will keep all your “goods” covered as you take a seat or bend over. Thanks Habitual!

2. A STATEMENT NECKLACE


A seamless way to make a powerful statement is by choosing the right accessories. A statement necklace can transform a simple blouse (or t-shirt) into something ultra fabulous! This brass fringe necklace has a luxurious feel at a price that you just can’t pass up! 

Hive and Honey brass fringe necklace, $32.00 on http://www.piperlime.com/
  
3. A GO 2 BLOUSE

Every pretty girl needs a pretty blouse that will look fab over denim, a pair of leggings or a short, short skirt. This blouse by Karen Zambos Vintage Couture is a must have shade of orange because it will easily transition your wardrobe from summer into fall. Try wearing it with a skinny belt now or layering it over a long sleeve tee once fall arrives!

4. STANDOUT PLATFORMS

Platform wedges are a comfortable alternative to sky high heels and a simple way to add height to your look. These woven leather metallic wedges by Cynthia Vincent are perfect for showing off your fresh pedicure, and what’s even better is that they are currently on sale for under $200! Act fast ladies!

5. A BEAUTIFUL HANDBAG

Having a great handbag puts the finishing touches on any wardrobe. If there is one place you should invest your money, its here! This beautifully constructed leather bag by Rebecca Minkoff doubles as strapless clutch or a shoulder bag, making it perfect for the singlelista on the go!

 Starry Perforated Mae Clutch by Rebecca Minkoff, available for $365.00 on www.rebeccaminkoff.com.
