Fall 2011-2012 Trends...I know, Already?!

I have always said that Chicago only has two seasons...Winter and Summer! We are just now beginning to be introduced to the summer weather and yet department stores will began to start moving out the summer inventory to make room for the fall fashions in the upcoming weeks! I can't really believe it is June already because now is the time that I stop buying summer flocks and begin to prepare and invest  in my Fall must haves! Tory Burch presented  her Autumn/Winter 2011- 12 Collection during Fall 2011 New York Fashion Week and I absolutely feel in  love with what she presented on the runway. Her Collection was all about “English country" dressing, bold plaids, 70s Fashion, bold colors that included brown, muted orange, taupe, olive green, rust, and soft peach hues. She also resurrected pieces like bell bottom suits, bow blouses and plaid prints and tweeds. Finally... making a come back in her collection were palazzo pants in low-slung pleated and printed versions teamed with silk tops. I am so excited about the resurgence of the classics and retro style...and now the hunt begins!
