Style File: Fall Fashion Trends

WSVN -- The leaves don't exactly fall from the palm trees here in South Florida, but that doesn't mean fall fashion hasn't arrived.

Stacy Goren: "The fall trends in South Florida is a little bit different than up north because it is still 90 degrees outside. We're still getting all the fashions for fall. We just modify it a little bit to keep it easy and breezy."

At the new Elektrik Boutique in Fort Lauderdale, the rock star trend is taking center stage with studs and spikes. But if you don't want to rock out too much, soften it up with a sheer top.

Stacy Goren-Owner: "It's got the studs around the collar which is a really great detail. It's transparent, very thin fabric that's lightweight. Pair it with a feminine bottom. Do it with spiky bag.  It's hard, but it's soft."

You can stay cool as a rockstar in tough denim too.

Stacy Goren: "It's so hot here so we're gonna pair denim but we're gonna do with a short-sleeved cropped tank. You can do it with heels with spikes on them. Color denim is more acid washed for rock star look."

Ffringe is in but you don't have to sway too far with clothes just accessorize.

Stacy Goren: "You can really use it in a lot of different ways with a necklace, with earrings and a great handbag that crosses your body with a little bit of movement on the end."

If you loved this summer's hot tangerine color, good news it's got a bright future for fall.

Stacy Goren: "Pantone just announced that it's the color of the season. You can do it in a feminine combination of lace, you can really do it in a beautiful color-blocking Chevron print."

And forget wearing all-black there's a new it color combination for guys and gals too

Stacy Goren: "The blue and black trend is the ultimate power look. Instead of being the nice black look that we're used to wearing, it def puts a different level of style with it. It's a bright bright blue intense."

From color to collars, unique shirt collars are the standouts when it comes to tops. And the collar necklace is especially trending for fall.

Stacy Goren: "It's almost like a necklace, but it's already attached to your shirt. As well as the Peter Pan collar, very feminine, kind-of has a little scalloped round edge."

At Touch Boutique on Biscayne Boulevard in Miami, it's all about wine and we're not talking about the kind you drink. We're talking about the burgundy color.

Clarisa Soto: "You're going to be seeing skirts, shorts, dresses, it's a really beautiful color that compliments different types of skin tones. Nice way to warm up for fall in Miami."

And can I get an Amen. The flattering peplum trend is popping again.

Clarisa Soto: "Peplum is a style from the 20's. It's super complimentary on a woman's body. It cinches in your waist. So try it out on your skirt, top, jacket, or dress."

Love it or hate it expect to see crazy pants which are pants with prints but you can still look sane wearing them.

Clarisa Soto: "You'll see different prints. You'll mix in the metallic. You can dress them up. You can dress them down different shapes and sizes. You'll see them in wide-leg, high-waisted, skinny."

All looks you will fall for when, if the temperature is still toasty.  

Expect to see a lot of lace. And thanks to Alexander Mcqueen, people are still buying up anything with skulls on them, and if you don't know how to wear the trends, Touch Boutique has stylists on hand to help you put together an outfit.
