Red
Red is the most popular color for fall fashion and holiday attire this year. While I am covering stores along the Coast, I’m also finding a lot of colorful floral patterns. Also, would you believe bell bottoms are back this year? I wore a pair during a shoot recently and so many people stopped me to ask where they could find them.
Though fall has officially arrived, South Mississippi weather can remain somewhat warm. That’s why incorporating a cardigan over any outfit can give everyone the opportunity to prepare for a much anticipated cool front.
In addition, I picked up on the newest West Coast fashion trends while living and working in television in Los Angeles. My favorite is the all-purpose classic staple: the black leather jacket. Black can go with any outfit, whether you are wearing a colorful dress or some edgy leggings.
Wearing high black boots with the leather jacket can create the perfect fall outfit! Pairing these outfits with accessories and a backpack can complete a new fall look.
As for me, I wear a black backpack everywhere I go — it’s definitely another fashion staple. I learned that tip and more from my sister, Kelli Seymour, a nationally renowned fashion model who lives in Los Angeles.
Kelli always says, “Be comfortable, but confident. When you feel good about what you wear, then it doesn’t matter if you are dressed in a name brand outfit or wearing sweatpants, just be sure to rock it!”
