With fall well on its way, we thought we’d get ahead of the game and prepare ourselves for the upcoming season. We recently reconnected with fashion influencer Lavenda @Lavendascloset to get her inside scoop of all the latest styles and trends that’s on her radar for fall. Read on to see her top picks this season.
Fall 2016 is ushering in all the killer trends we loved from the 90’s, plus a strong retro influence from the 70’s. Statement pieces in every color, pattern and texture are front-runners for new fall must-haves and that does not exclude shoes. Check out my Top Two SHOES.COM picks to own for Fall, plus see which handbags made the cut!
THE VELVET BOOTIE
Velvet booties are an edgy trend for Fall. Kendall Jenner has already been spotted wearing what was dubbed “the big fall ankle boot trend” across the globe. I love the retro silhouette of these Matisse Grafitti boots. The velvet is is a warm grey that seems to go with simply everything and the footbed is quite comfortable for walking. Every girl needs at least one pair of smokin’ hot statement boots right?

THE CLASSIC LITTLE BLACK BOOT
For my second select, I had to go with a solid staple and classic black boot. I usually scour online sites for months before finding the perfect black boot. This is an essential for every woman, no matter your style. The little black book is similar to the LBD in it’s trusty side-kick status. It will literally go with anything in your closet. And yes- I officially challenge you on that. I landed on these stunning leather “Farrah” Via Spiga boots. The subtle tied leather design on the sides adds a touch of couture, while the classic build and silhouette means a permanent spot at the top of my shoe shelves!

THE CROSSBODY BAG
To accessorize this mix-prints look, I went with more monochrome. The little “Abbot” Cole Haan crossbody is the perfect touch since since you cant go wrong with mixing black and white prints. I love the size and the vintage camera case shape.Cole Haan Abbot Crossbody

THE ALL BLACK CROSSBODY
I’ve been loving the entire Lodis collection recently, with the clean lines and modern accents. This little Lodis Blair Bailey Crossbody fits right into my Fall wardrobe because of it’s deceptively compact size (it fits quite a bit due to a very thin lining) and it’s deep ebony leather.
