I have to admit when I first saw the Fall 2010 Louis Vuitton Collection I was swooning! I can’t express how much I simply adored the feminine qualities of this collection with the cinched waists and full skirts, but I wondered as a petite woman could I pull this look off?

ABSOLUTELY! Rachel looks FABULOUSLY sexy in this ensemble. The key factor is to wear heels. High ones to give you additional height and to prevent the look from getting frumpy.  This look is about celebrating the figure of a woman which Rachel meticulously achieves with not only the cinched waist and flirty skirt, but also by showing off some cleavage. Gotta love this look! This is definitely a shift from some of the edgier and more structured collections that have been blazing through the catwalks for the past few seasons.

So do tell, when Fall inevitably rolls around do you see yourself rocking one of these looks?

I have to admit, I’m not usually a big fan of yellow, but after seeing this picture of Victoria Beckam in a yellow shift dress with nude shoes I had to reconsider. I love the effect of the neutral shoe coupled with the yellow dress. It gives it a more chic vibe and is a great daytime look that can easily go into evening. I think I’ve always associated the yellow dress with bridesmaid dresses, but this look is anything but 27 Dresses. So did you catch the fever?

No need to pack away your summer lovelies just because the temperatures begins to cool. Fall is all about layering and with a few key pieces you can extend the life of your summer favorites into fall.

1. This wide leg trouser from Asos will serve as the perfect compliment to all your summery blouses. With a suspender accent you will be on trend with the latest looks in menswear, but pairing it with a feminine top will keep the look softer and less masculine.

2. You can never have too many boyfriend cardigans and you can’t go wrong with this one from Asos with a curved hem design and gold button detail. It’s the  perfect accent to your summer frocks as well as a pair of skinny jeans. Add a belt to finish off the look to accentuate your waistline.

3. Feeling a little chilly? Why not grab a colorful scarf to not only beat the chill, but add a punch of color to your ensemble. Fall is all about the beautiful rich hues and tones so why not take a cue from nature! This gorgeous metallic scarf from Forever 21 is sure to add some shimmer to your day.

4. Fall is the time to pump it up! The days of showing off your pedicures are almost to an end and the cooler temps means those pretty feet need some coverage even though I have seen some women refusing to relinquish their flip flops even as we near freezing temperatures, but that’s another story. A platform pump will work well with everything from skirts to jeans so why not try on this pair from Asos for size.

5. Want to add some extra kick? Go for colored tights for some flair! They come in a vast array of colors and textures and they’re sure to add some new dimension and interest to your summer pieces.

With a few key additions summer clothes can transition seamlessly from summer to fall. Sound off! What are your secrets to keeping your summer favorites out of the storage containers?
