Fall Fashion: Ruffles

Fall fashion has arrived, and what’s taking over the racks are ruffles, ruffles, and more ruffles. Whether it’s huge dramatic ruffles or just a few around the neckline, it’s hard to deny that they are making a splash this fall. This fall, ruffles took over the runways of designers such as BCBG and Valentino. Now you can find this style practically anywhere. We went out in search of clothing that featured this trend and narrowed down a few of our favorites. If you want your ruffles to be a little more subtle then the Robin K. Ruffled Eyelet Top is for you. We chose this top because the ruffles are more subtle, not to mention the great sheer polka dot material it was made of. This top can be dressier with nice pants or skirt and heels, or more casual with jeans and flats. Now if your want your ruffles to be a bit more noticeable then we have the top for you. The Ruffle Front Halter from Forever21 is great for fall. Since it’s a tank you won’t get hot during warm fall afternoons, but the ruffles and color show it’s strictly for fall. Now if you decide to go all out with this trend with big, dramatic ruffles, then the Fleurish Ruffle Top (see top left) is for you. I love this top because it is the definition of big dramatic ruffles, without being to over the top. Not to mention it comes in three great colors, so you can choose which looks best on you. Last but not least is the Gatsbys Ruffle Front Dress from Lulus. I love this dress because you can dress it up with a cute jacket and heels, or you dress it down by wearing it over black leggings, with flats and a cute sweater or jacket. No matter how big or dramatic the ruffles you wear, as long as you’re wearing them you’ll be fashionable this fall.
