Getting ready for the artic temps?   We will be seeing alot of fauz fur accents with textured leathers.  Nordic prints are making a big splash.... and guess what?  pompoms.  You heard it right here... POMPOMS.  You have got to be kidding me!  Pom Poms made with colored yarns... pompoms made of leather..... Pompoms made with faux fur.  I thought we out grew this.

Layering (this is not new) metallic down vests over nordic print sweaters, over slim pants seem to be the causal look for the frigid temps.

For evening, with all that glitters, the basic white tuxedo shirts will take you easily from day to night.  Once again back to men's wear.  The classic pearl has made a return this year in accenting the evening looks.... classic tuxedo look with a classic string of pearls (This too is NOT new... but at very least it is a classic.  Besides, black and white and tailored lines always works.)

But animal prints are back in full force, showing up everywhere in purses and boots (with POMPOMS... uugggh).
