Fall 2011

Guess what people!?... I am leaving for the start of my Junior year on Thursday, and do you know what that means? Time for Pirates Prevailing Tastes original header and for the start of a new school year!

Time for photos of fashionable students headed to class, new beginnings, fashion columns in the school paper The East Carolinian, new haircuts and fringy bangs, cozy sweaters, loads of inspirational pictures, crisp autumn air, crocheted shorts and slouchy cable knits, and a new adventure with College Fashionista. Fall is right around the corner and the apple cider scented excitement in the air is so palpable I can almost reach out and scoop up a handful. New school years always make me so jittery. I feel the urge to stock up on cute notebooks and pens and wear my glasses so that I can appear way more studious than I am. At night I lay in bed contemplating different outfits that I can wear during the first week and my mind races with dreams of how my classes will turn out and what the beginning of the year is going to bring. Not only am I excited about the season, I am excited about the clothes! I am IN LOVE with the colors that are showing up for Fall 2011. Deep plums, vibrant and burnt oranges, forrest greens, rusty reds, sandy browns, golden yellows...so many that I can hardly name them all. They make me wish the weather was changing RIGHT NOW so that I can slip on some wedge booties and a baggy cardigan and journey through a packed campus to get coffee. Today I am going to share some pictures of Ready To Wear lines for Fall 2011 and just some random shots that will inspire you to dust off those worn in boots and suit up for Fall fashion!...


I am OBSESSED with every single item of clothing on this post. They are FLAWLESS. My favorite look is the strawberry colored maxi-skirt with the striped sweater by Carlos Miele, what's your favorite? Hope you enjoyed this Fall 2011 preview, more posts coming very soon!...

keep on keepin on fashionistas,

That mossy green ensemble is absolute, jaw-dropping perfection. I'm such a sucker for the jewel tones as it is, so count me in! Do you think maybe next time you could list the designer for each photo? I'm just a curious cat, I suppose. Great post! I will be anxiously awaiting your column in TEC!

I LOVE going back to school clothes. Especially fall. I'm saving up like crazy for like three pairs of shoes and a Marc by Marc Jacobs bag!
