6 Fall Fashion & Beauty Trends to Wear Now

Each season there are so many new fashion and beauty trends presented by media and magazines, that it can be difficult to sift through and figure out which ones are worth investing in and wearing!

I’ve teamed up with my favorite beauty blogger and makeup artist, Jennifer Duvall of JennySue Makeup, to film a fun little video presenting three makeup and three fashion trends we believe every lady can pull off this season!

We chose Nordstrom as the backdrop of our video because it’s simply our favorite place to shop for both beauty and fashion all in one place. {This post is not sponsored by Nordstrom…we simply just love it!}

A big thank you to the talented Jawavi Films for editing and creating this video.

Three Fashion Trends to Copy Now

1. Burgundy Handbag and/or Shoes. This color goes with everything! Pair with neutrals, black, navy, gray, blush pink and even jewel tones like emerald green. You can even pair burgundy with burgundy!

2. Over-the-knee boots. Head over to my recent post all about OTK boots to find out more about why I believe every woman needs a pair and to shop my favorites this season.

Click here to shop the Vince Camuto pair I am wearing in the video. They are currently 25% off and the most flattering OTK boots I have tried on! Nordstrom also has an amazing selection of boots in all price-points. Click here for the full collection.

3. Distressed, Raw-Hem Denim. This is the “must-have” jean of the season. Since they dress up or down and go day to night, I promise you’ll find yourself wearing them everywhere and wondering how you lived without them. Here is the cute and affordable pair Jennifer is wearing in this video, and here are tons more options to shop. {I recommend ordering two sizes in the Vigoss brand Jennifer is wearing. Many people wear their normal size, but I had to size up. Better to have two options to try and return the one that doesn’t fit!}

Three Beauty Trends to Copy Now

1. Jewel-Tone Shimmer and Glitter Eyes. Contrary to popular belief, grown up women CAN wear shimmer and glitter on the lids! It can look sophisticated for Fall and Winter when worn in small doses in the right color family, and makes a fun statement for Holiday parties!

The two products Jennifer recommends are Bobbi Brown Long Wear Liquid Glitter Liners 
and Clinique Chubby Shadow Tint Sticks. {Head over to the JennySue Makeup blog for more tips on application!}

2. Dark, Vampy Lips. It’s normal to want to go darker with lip color for Fall/Winter and this year deep “vampy” tones are all the rage. You can rock it from a deep cranberry and/or burgundy all the way to a darkish plum.

Just pair bold lips with a very minimal makeup face. Think mascara (always), a little champagne shadow, and a tinted moisturizer with a light blush.  

Two colors to try ::

– Giorgio Armani Lip Maestro Lip Color in Orient. This is the color Jennifer is wearing in the video. I tried hers and loved it, so I just ordered for myself! {It’s not available in most stores, so we recommend ordering.}
– YSL Vinyl Cream Lip Stain 

3. Dewy, Highlighted Skin. Combat lackluster winter skin with either a thin liquid bronzer with a bit of sheen to it like the Nars Laguna Liquid Bronzer. Just mix it with your everyday foundation on the back of your hand and apply with a makeup sponge like this one {I cannot live without this tool!} or a foundation brush.

Or, if paleness isn’t your problem, but dull skin is, you could swipe a highlighting blush in a warm champagne shade onto your cheekbones and a little down the center of your nose.  This Nars Powdered Duo is awesome.
