upcoming trends: fresh from NYC

My good friend Jamie just returned from fashion week in New York.  Upon her return, she promptly reported a few key trends she observed while she was there.  These, along with trends I've seen in many of the fashion week recaps are all things I'm excited to embrace in the months ahead...

yummy knits in warm, rich colors like this "marled toffee"

leopard print was prevalent in all forms—jackets, scarves, bags, you name it!
