Mystery surrounds us in the fall months. The weather remains warm in San Diego, which may not be the case where you live, but bold prints are arising on clothing everywhere. Gorgeous exotic colors are taking the pedestal and warming up the cooler weather with some pizzazz, such as shirts with asymmetrical patterns and draped pants.
Shake up your wardrobe with some hipster print. Go with deep, rich colors. Try deep greens and violets mixed with brighter colors. For example, my first showcase does just what I described. It’s a breezy sweater with a Bordeaux combo. It’s flirty and feminine with a carefree attitude. Wear it to work with a tank underneath and spice up your slacks with this fiery top. I like the fact that it’s longer and can be worn with slacks or a fitted skirt for the evening hours.

Calvin Klein does an excellent job embracing this season’s print dress. When it comes to this structured dress, sophisticated is an understatement. I like it because it can be extremely flattering if worn by the right person. The waist is cinched with an illusionary black belt. The color schemes work well to accentuate a curvy body. The black, red, and camel prints are easy colors to work with as far as pairing with shoes and accessories. Keep your accessories simple but have fun with the shoe pairing, if you are able to depending on where you wear the dress.
