Black Corset Dress / Givenchy Platform Heel / Givenchy Clutch / Baroque Pearl Earrings

Fall is my favorite time for fashion.  It seems that everyone is excited for the change in the seasons and a bit of relief from the heat.  I’m excited to try some of the new trends for Fall and share them with you.  Next up, How to Wear the Corset Trend.

This beautiful 3.1 Phillip Lim Corset Waist dress is the perfect way for me to try this trend because it has feminine details.  The high-low skirt and the ruffled-like edge make this dress feminine which I think softens the corset trend which includes bustiers.  I’m all about a black dress whether a maxi, midi or mini.

You’ve actually seen this trend in this post on my favorite color handbags for fall.  This corset detail is also on the smaller side on this top also by Phillip Lim giving you the ability to try the trend without going all out.

I’ve styled this dress with the most amazing platform heels.  Ankle details are huge for fall whether in heels like these or flats.  I have another pair similar to these that I’ve had for several years and love that they on still on point.  These have the coolest hardware and are very comfortable for a heel this high.  I love the glamour they add to this cotton dress.  The dress would also be great with fun flat sandals or these block heels that are very on trend for fall.

You know I love a clutch and this one is made from the most wonderful leather.  This is a bit on the larger side which I love because my husband is always handing me his wallet, phone and keys when we go out!

School starts for us this week and I’m both sad and excited.  Sad summer is over but excited about what I know will be a great year for my girls.  If you start back this week, I’ll be thinking of you as we try to adjust to early mornings again!  This momma is NOT a morning person…
