Now that we have talked about some boots, let’s go ahead and talk about the color palette for the shoes that you should expect when you are looking for a new pair of shoes. 

First up are dark colors.  To be completely honest, I think that this season in general – whether it is fall or winter is going to be filled with a lot of deep reds, dark purples, dark greens and a lot of midnight blues and blacks. 

Personally, I think that these colors are absolutely breathtaking and I love the fact that your feet are going to be encased with some darker colors while your outfit may be a little bit brighter.

The fall and winter seasons are really cold seasons but I can tell you that the shoes for this season are hot, hot, hot!  Not only are over-the-knee boots some of the best boots in the world, but they are also dominating the runway this season and will continue to dominate it well into the winter months. 

To me, over-the-knee boots are something very hot and whether you are pairing them with a hot little baby doll dress or you are looking to pair them with a mini-skirt, I can promise that they are going to look awesome on you.

In the next blog, we are going to explore some of the other options you have to fall/winter trends in shoes for 2010!

You always have to think about how you look. If gold is the color of the minute, consider this: are you tan? If so, gold will heighten your complexion, so if you like it, go for it. I myself am very pale; gold tends to make pale people look washed out, even sallow. You know what looks fantastic on us? Silver.

Skinny jeans look good on girls with slender, lanky figures. If you are curvy and tall, wide legged jeans are going to make you look stellar. Curvy and short? Not so wide legged.

If you understand the essential, fundamental differences between style and fashion, you will be better able to decide what trends will work for you. Style is an art; fashion is cool, but it tends to be transitory — just like trends. What is fashionable today will not be fashionable tomorrow … but what is stylish is generally classic for a good long time.

Trends. They are so tempting. But come on, we have to be honest with ourselves, we cannot always pull them off for one reason or another. Me, I am short and not a size 2, so skinny jeans are never going to look good on me. And many times, trends are not only passing, but they are too expensive and, well, unattractive, to waste money on in the first place. For instance, one trend in facial hair right now is to shave off or bleach one’s eyebrows. Uhm … why?

So, let’s talk about when to just let the trends go. Let’s talk about how to keep things in perspective.

A trend may be super hot, but that does not mean that it’s right for you. You might see it in Vogue or Harper’s Bazaar or even another, more applicable fashion mag — but remember that the models wearing that particular trend have the benefit of professional stylists … and professional airbrushing.
