I absolutely adore the patchwork denim trend for fall. When I spotted these skinnies by Current Elliott, I knew they were the perfect patchwork jeans for me.

These patchwork jeans by Current Elliott fit like a glove. They are, comfortable, and a great alternative to regular blue jeans. Love that!

Since they have such a cool, patchwork design, and I wanted my new red, Mansur Gavriel to stand out, I decided to keep the outfit simple with a classic white shirt. I feel like this outfit is classic and crisp; with a twist. The patchwork, of course, are that twist!

These jeans will be great when the weather cools off for fall; and I can wear them more! Right now, I can only wear them until the fog burns off, then it’s back to short. Ugh, boring shorts.

The patchwork trend for fall is so much fun! I would love to add a dress, and a sweater, to my wardrobe for fall with a patchy look. Of course, I would only wear one patchwork item at a time 😉

Are you planning on indulging in the patchwork trend this upcoming fall season? If so, how do you plan to wear it?

Button front skirts are a huge trend this fall 2015 season. The button front skirt has been spotted everywhere for the upcoming autumn season; from the runways to the streets, it is the IT skirt of the season.

Whether you prefer mini skirts, midi skirts, or maxi skirt, there is a button front skirt this season for you. The button front skirt is being shown in all three lengths; with suede and denim as the most popular fabrications.

Button front skirts are a fabulous fall trend. They are casual in nature, making them a fabulous alternative to jeans or cords. Love that!

With the 1970’s trend in full swing for fall, button front skirts are taking center stage as the ultimate skirt to own. The button front skirt was a huge trend in the 1970’s, making it fit perfectly into the season.

Button front skirts can be worn with sandals, thick heeled sandals or pumps, booties, and knee boots. They can also be paired with body conscious sweaters or knits, ponchos, secretary blouses, tees, and casual blouses. These combinations make button front skirts perfect for both weekends and casual office environments. Love it!

I absolutely adore the button front skirt trend. I remember my Mom wearing a brown suede, button front skirt when I was a small child. I always liked how it looked on her, but the trend never returned after the late 1970’s. Now that it is finally back, I cannot wait to wear it!

This fall season I have already picked up a navy suede, button front midi skirt (similar here) and this beige suede, button front skirt. I also have my eyes on this denim, button front skirt. Now, I need to find a fabulous pair of boots to wear with them!

This skirt! When I received my fall 2015 JCrew catalog a few weeks ago in the mail, I almost fell off my chair when I spotted this midi skirt in the pages of the glossy. The laser cut overlay, and the beautiful burgundy hue, spoke to me.

Rarely does clothing speak to me; especially in the form of “you need me now!” Normally I see something I like, I ponder it, I try to match it with other things in my closet, then I make my decision. With this midi skirt, I did not have to think, I just knew it was “the one.”

JCrew offers the skirt in burgundy, navy, and black. These are all fabulous colors, but I felt the burgundy/wine hue was really exceptional. This color sets off the laser cut-outs, making the midi skirt incredibly interesting. Love that!

When I received this laser cut midi skirt in the mail, it was even prettier than I imagined. In person, the cut-outs, and the color, are exceptional. I know I will be wearing this midi skirt all season long!

My beautiful nine-year-old daughter snapped these pictures before church last Sunday. It was the first time I wore the skirt, and I was thrilled! My two daughters love it too! 🙂

I paired this laser cut midi skirt with a simple white top from my closet. I cannot wait to start pairing it with thicker fabrics, knitwear, and even sweaters! Bring on the cold weather!

I also need to give a shout-out to the fabulous pair of earrings, and beautiful necklace by Kendra Scott I am wearing in these photos. I received them last week at the RewardStyle Master Class in San Francisco. Kendra Scott’s team was there showing the fall collection, and how the Color Bar works. 

As a huge fan of Kendra Scott’s gems, I was thrilled to receive these two items. The earrings are fabulous. They can be worn with, or without, the earring jacket. Two in one =  fabulous! ( and a money saver ;-)) 

This necklace is also a perfect closet staple. It matches everything, of course, and transcends trends. I love timeless pieces; and would love to own it in every color!

Have you found a key piece this fall which speaks to you?
