Fabulous Fall Fashion Finds
by Krista Michelle Arrigo

If you're like me, you go nuts when a new season rolls around. With so many styles, and so many to try, how will we ever decide which to buy?

Consider this a cheat sheet to your fall fashion must-haves. Your fashionista friend -- me, of course! -- has scoured the stores, studied the styles, and selected the best of this season's stuff. Suede boots, big bags, funky jeans, cozy scarves. Read on to see the seven selections that'll matter most for your fall fashion wardrobe.

1 - Suede is smokin' this season, so spoil yourself with a serious suede coat like this one from Wet Seal. Faux fur around the neck and cuffs gives it a ghetto-fab' feel, adds instant drama, and is sure to keep you warm. At $110, you can't go wrong -- these sturdy fabrics are long-lasting! Get it at wetseal.com.

2 - Knee-high boots are hot, and why not?! They can be worn to complement a cool outfit! I love showing mine off with smart skirts and dainty dresses. These sassy suede boots from Candies are a perfect match with your new coat (see above), and they're only $59! Get em' at candies.com.

3 - Bags are major this season, but instead of sporting the expected, try one that's outrageously unique like this one from Tati Totes. I found this amazing Gem Tati Tote on sale for just $25 -- that's a fantastic find, considering these bag prices range from $100-$200. Surf tatitotes.com for more super sales.

4 - These days, denim is a definite "do" for a diva. The versatile fabric can be worn with almost anything, and it's wearable in every season. And lucky you -- designers are getting even more creative with revolutionary styles like these from Gypsy Jeans. These stylish pants are the only jeans with interchangeable legs, which means two pairs are now four. Pretty creative, huh? The funky prints and change options add pizazz. (Plus now, there's no way that copy-cat classmate can cramp your style by sporting the same outfit!) Be the first to wear em' at gypsyjeans.com.

5 - You may not think of eyewear as fall fashion, but the truth is, your eyes should be protected year-round from harsh UV rays. That's the best reason to wear fashionable frames like these from Transitions, which not only protect your peepers, but also help prevent future wrinkles, skin cancer, and eye diseases. With stylish shades, you'll look smart and glamorous. Go to transitions.com for more.

6 - One of this season's hottest items is a long, cozy scarf. They come in lots of cool colors and fab' fabrics, but for a more wearable add-on, be sure to choose a neutral tone. This one from Arden B. is perfect with jeans or pants of any color. For $48, the fringe and embroidered flower make it even more special. Go to ardenb.com for more styles.

7 - Belt up and add spice to an ordinary outfit thanks to fall designs that range from simple to spectacular. Pair this beautiful beaded shell belt from Urban Outfitters with jeans and a colored tee, or wrap it around a black dress. Either way, you'll be a smart, sassy diva -- no one will know you only spent $12! Surf urbanoutfitters.com for more.
