Fall is my favorite time of the year. School is back in session; I'm reunited with friends; football season has begun.

Fall is a delicate time of year when colors change all around us. The foliage makes its final color changes before descending to the ground. Of course, this would depend on your location and climate.

Fall fashion also depends on your location. Here in Florida it would be best to stick with lighter fabrics to bring in the fall season. It probably would be best to put away your bright colorful pieces. Bright coral colors should be retired until next spring.

Want to have the freedom to take off clothes when hot and still look cute? Layering tees and tanks looks extra cute right now with tights or leggings and a belt. For chillier mornings, a long sleeve shirt, light jacket or vest would be appropriate. This season is big on pants that flatter your figure.

Girls, it's time to pull out that perfect pair of dark jeans and flaunt them. Fun fact. Dark jeans make you look slimmer, so if you have areas that you don't want noticed, the dark will help to camouflage them.

Darker or muted colors definitely help to bring in the fall atmosphere. Purple has made a huge comeback this fall. Everywhere you look it's purple. From purple, crocheted UGGS to OPI's, "Louvre Me Louvre Me Not" purple nail polish. You can be covered in purple from head to toe if you would like and, as long as its different shades, it will be acceptable. If you are unsure how to wear an outfit of entirely the same color, then please watch the end of "Sex in the City, The Movie." Miranda wears an outfit of all brown that was one of her best outfits in the movie.

With fall comes the bewitching holiday of Halloween. Around this time of year, I begin to ask the age old question, "What should I be for Halloween?" Costume stores are popping up all over Lakeland, so try not to fret about it because you will only wear this one time. Googling your costume idea is always convenient and usually ships pretty quickly. Of course, that all depends on what site you ordered from. Or you can just go the creative route and make one from scratch. Either way, make it a fun thing. Do not stress over it!
