We know blazers is a classic for every fall/winter season. It elevates every look. While elevating the blazers can also change any look from professional to a chill casual look in a matter of seconds due to its versatility. This year we can expect to see crop blazers as well which must I say I love! Blazers are an item that should be in your closet for sure . Prices from blazers can range depending on high end designers to vintage. Me personally I love a vintage blazer which I usually can always find a good stylish one directly from my local second hand stores. They can start as low as $5 and surpass $2K, which is worth it due to it being an endless statement piece. The more sustainable quality the better to last through seasons. Check out our shop tab to browse new & used blazers hand selected by Jae Breaon. So like stated blazers are versatile meaning from dressed up or down. How are your blazers normally styled?

Now let’s get into some materials shall we? Can we say Leather!!! Yes you heard me right bring out the leather hunni and don’t be boring with it! Try some colors and pull off a monochromatic look like pictured above. Even if it’s faux leather get your hands on it lol. I’m telling you it’s definitely a statement to be made this season. When shopping for leather weather it’s top or bottom I recommend always going for the one with stretch & pull to be as comfy& breathable  as possible because let’s be real it get's HOT  lol so that would be my best advice . I must say there is a fine line with leather. It can go from classy to straight ratchet real quick lol my advice line up the colors nice and neat and maybe stray away from the typical black faux leggings that we see so very often,instead switch it up & dare to be different.

Ok now on to the hot trending topic ,CARGOS cargos and more cargos! Lol do we need to even say much ? We know how essential cargos are to not only women but men also. The cargo trend  was a form of Battle dressing and was  first worn by members of the British Armed Forces in 1938 and then was later introduced to the US 2 years later during world war ||  , which further explains the large cargo pockets which they used to store things such as maps, compasses and more. And years later now to modern day they are versatile in so many ways and in millions of our closets.  Me personally I love them tight fitted around my assets lol which isn’t much and loose fitting on my legs. They come together & make a nice silhouette. I’ll wear cargos over jeans any day is it just me ? Especially when it comes to comfortability! Now also the trend are cargo skirts , which I must get my hands on! As we already know you can never go wrong with a skirt ladies. Ugh and in the winter time with a nice boot and an A symmetrical split ooooou hunny lol. Any retailer stores in modern day in either women’s men’s or both I’m sure you’re able to come across cargos but me personally will always check my local thrift store first (y’all know it was coming lol) vs in the women’s or the men section. Styling them is easy peasy literally! Subscribe so you can be notified when our cargos 101 blog drops!

Are these brands making a comeback? I know by this time you have seen the retro brands making a comeback. From brands like Ed Hardy, VonDutch, Diesel .history repeats itself & fashion is no difference. Diesel is the 90s brand that has made the ultimate comeback. VonDutch which I know lately you’ve been seeing their logo hats everywhere was founded back in 1999 after the late artist Kenny Howard. Ed Hardy was founded in the beginning of the 2000s which we know is known for incorporating Japanese tattoo aesthetics. Expect to see these brand logos all over this fall  fashions

Now this brings us on to corsets. Now I know what you’re saying it’s fall/winter but hear me out. We have to work our ability to layer. Yes say it with me lay👏🏽er lol. Add those layers to your corset with a long sleeve shirt/button down. We’re gonna transition our summer pieces ladies. Which actually we’ll make that a session next 👀. Corsets are so versatile  that come in so many different textures ,sizes,shapes & colors. They  accentuate every body type. And we have the option to of long sleeve corset’s. Corsets were worn by women and some men in the western world and has never left since!

Do anyone remember the Bratz dolls? That’s instantly what comes to my mind when I think of the platforms booties and mules that you can expect to see this fall/winter. I think of the dolls and I think retro 70’s. Again fashion just repeats itself lol. I feel like platforms for one makes your feet appear smaller which if anyone is like me with these boats (hey my big feet sista’s lol) then you would love for your feet to look smaller. They come in various styles , textures , colors and designed for winter too with the closed in mules and of course we can transition our open toe mules to fall with adding some fashionable tights to keep the toes warm! I would style these with a midi skirt or dress, or some nice cuffed jeans. And I know you guys are familiar with the designer Givenchy  boots which retails 1K-2K$ but did we know Macys have a cuteee dupe! Which of course is half the price

times two. Yup thank me later we have them linked below
