5 Best Fashion Trends For Autumn 2016

Fall into fashion with a new spin to your aesthetic

September has arrived after a long, humid summer. For some, the thought of fall beginning is disheartening. After all, they have to pack away the bikinis, sandals, and beach towels to prepare for the winter. Fall, however, brings new fashion and new ways to express your style. Here are a few trends you're bound to see this autumn.

1. Straps and ties

Ribbons, strings, and links are everywhere in upcoming fall fashion. The corset top seems to be coming back, and unexpected places for straps are appearing all over. Dresses held together in the middle with lacing are chic and sure to impress without being too daring.


2. Muted orange

While orange has always been a part of the fall palette, the muted orange brings this often too bright color into the realm of sophisticated earthy tones. One of Pantone's colors for Fall 2016 is Potter's Clay, a rusty orange that flatters a variety of skin tones.

3. Leather trench coats

Leather trench coats aren't just for spies and action heroes anymore. These coats are one of the best trends for fall! Classic and just a little edgy, you can style these coats with almost any outfit, casual or formal. It will give you that little edge you've been looking for, and keep you cozy while you're looking fierce.

4. One shoulder sweaters

This casual, slouchy style can be paired with leggings and boots for a fun weekend outfit. Some of these asymmetrical tops can be dressed up, as well. Think sequins and skinny slacks to make a statement at a fall party.

5. Subtly shiny fabrics

Try out an unusual texture this fall. A subtle shine will draw attention to movement. You'll be turning heads all season if you don a subtle metallic shirt. Mixing textures is essential with shiny fabrics. Aim for some matte fabric in your outfit, as well—balance is key! A small shine will create a big glow for you.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
