BAF Weekly IT List

fall street style trends

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: foundation powder / Chanel fall nail polish / Dior fall nail polish / concealer / chain pouch in chocolate brown / golden hoop earrings (under $100) / casual blue dress (avl in tons of colors, under $50 / faux fur boot / black shoulder bag / denim joggers /

These faux fur boots are trending again! I loved wearing these boots last year when the weather was cool. They have treads on the soles, which is great in icy conditions. I also love that they come in several colors. While black is trending right now, I also own the ivory pair and I love the other colors this boot comes in as well. These are great boots for the cool weather we are looking forward to in a couple of months! Love!

Everyone is shopping for fall right now! This blue dress works well year-round and can easily be worn during the fall season with a scarf and/or jacket. It also looks cute with sneakers, high top sneakers, and casual boots. While the blue dress is trending right now, I love the black version, and I hope to pick up another one in a fall color such as a shade of brown or berry hue. Love it!

These joggers are also trending! They are perfect to wear now and well into the fall season. Since they are a traditional fall color, they work well for the autumn season. I love my pair! If you have seen me wearing them, I am wearing one size too large since I bought them when I wasn’t done losing weight. I just belt them, and they work, but the way they look on the model is what they will look like if you get the right size. The denim is super soft and comfortable, I am addicted! You will love them too if you haven’t already snapped up a pair.

If you aren’t ready for fall clothing and shoes, a handbag is a great way to start building your wardrobe for fall. Look for fall hues, neutrals, and shoulder bags. Love the ones trending this week, pictured above.

Pool slides for summer 2021

Move over flip-flops, summer 2021 is all about pool slides! Don’t worry about that peice of plastic rubbing between your first two toes, flip flops are so last year. This year, the beach and the pool call for a hearty pair of plastic slides; and I am here for it!

As street style trends towards more comfortable footwear, beach styles and pool styles are no different. Summer 2021 is all about comfortable footwear, and the pool slide fits the bill as the perfect shoe to wear to the beach or the pool. Love!

Pool slides are super comfortable. They have a thicker sole than your average pair of flip flops, and that sole is generally cushy and comfy. The sole is so comfy, you may find yourself using your pool slides as a summer slipper at home! I know I have already been wearing mine around the house on warm spring days!

You can find varying styles of pool slides to fit your personal style. Personally, I love all of the styles by adidas, but there are luxury versions too. You can rock pool slides any way you wish! Look for metallics, floral prints, designer logos, and more! You can also look for seasonal colors, or classic hues such as black or navy. There are pool slides for every taste this summer season.

Spring 2021 swimwear

The weather is starting to get better! This means it is time to start thinking about pool and beach wear!

As the economy continues to open up, and more people are vaccinated, it is safe to start going out more. This means, the beach and pool parties are calling our names! Time to get our outfits ready!

The 2021 swim season has a few new swimwear trends for us to fall in love with. We are looking at swimwear which is easier to move in, so we can play in the pool, and at the beach. Another trend this swim season is the one shoulder one-piece. I love this one. It really looks high-fashion by the pool or at the beach. That blue one shoulder suit above is calling my name; and it’s in my shopping cart!

The bikini is the two-piece of the year. Look for tank style tops, one shoulder tops, and twisted fabrics. For the bottom of the bikini, we are reliving the 1980s with higher hips cuts, and waistbands up to the belly button; if not covering the belly button. The backs of suits this year are a bit cheeky; so don’t cheat on your squats and lunges! Work that bootie!

Since spring can be a little cooler than summer, look for cover-ups which can cut the wind or keep you a little bit warmer. I love these jumpsuits, long cover-up dresses, and these cover-up pants. This time of year, it’s a good idea to carry a lightweight cardigan sweater or sweatshirt with you to the pool or the beach. You never know then the wind will kick up, or the fog will roll in!
