fall-trends-part-2

As the second installment of my

three-part series

, I chose detail-oriented pieces that add a dose of glamor to any outfit. With feathered accessories and intricate shoes, they're all special enough to make an impact in a subtle way.

Bubble Skirts

Bubble Bow Skirt

, $305

Belted Knee Length Knit Skirt

, $17.80 This is my favorite look of the season, but it's turned out to be harder than I thought to find the right proportions in the length and volume of the skirt.

Metallics

Metallic-foil Skinny Belt

, $38

Metallic Brocade Dress

, $310 I always feel more dressed up when I throw on a metallic piece. The colors illuminate light in such a flattering way.

Lace

Lace Ruffle Top

, $19.99

Lace Print Short Sleeve Jacket

, ?20 This delicate fabric is the ultimate celebration of femininity. I love the challenge of toughening it up with menswear-inspired pieces and

edgy footwear

.

Strappy Shoes

Pawelk

, $110

Lexxa Pump

, $168.95 With neutral-colored tights, these strappy pumps quickly become a captivating focal point.

Feathered Headbands

Extra Wide Feather Headband

, $85

Feather Satin Headband

, $4.80 I adore the natural feeling of having

feathers

in my hair. They're light, colorful and add a quirky touch to a plain hairstyle.
