Fashion Fall Must Have, Part 1

Hey ladies, the weather outside is getting frightful; and what better way to stay toasty and warm? Okay, besides next to a hunk of a man. . .SHOP! That's right, go shopping and do it proud!

In my first of six installments, I'm giving you the low down on the trends for Fall 2006. I do agree that these trends aren't for everyone, and I'm not a die-hard trend follower but if you are, pay close attention.

The Bubble!

No, not the backside of a woman, it's the newest trend for fall. Not a man in a bubble or bubble guns, this particular style "rounds" out at the waist and then follows a tapered form at the bottom. Not my favorite style trend, but I'm sure one of you would love to wear a bubble.

As you can see in this Badgley Mischka outfit, the skirt is poufy around her waist and it tapers off around her kneecaps at the bottom. They are not just exclusive to skirts, dresses and coats are also bubbled this year.

There are several pros to this type of style: one, you can hide your imperfections especially if you experience your most unsexy moments. If you're working on your shape and isn't that confident yet this could be for you. However the con is, it can make you look a tad bit too wide or heavy and if you do have a sexy body you can't see your shape in this type of style.

Of course, not all bubbles are created equal. Bubbles can be small or large, but please don't wear this!

Dress Gorgeous!
