‘Tis the Season of Winter Fashion

Winter is coming – and even better – so are the holidays. This is a time for family, fun, giving and of course – looking great. We want to make sure you know exactly what’s hot when your schedule is piled high with dinners, parties and traveling.

COLOR BLOCKING. This trend has been back and forth in the fashion world, but it’s here and brighter than ever. Color blocking outfits can flatter your figure with the division of color. Use bright colors to accentuate the part of your body you love and the darker to suppress those you don’t. It’s genius.

What you need to remember about color blocking is very easy: Use one bright color, one bold color and one neutral. Rashida Jones and Stella McCartney both pop out of this photo with their great color combos. Stella even went for the duo of colors which is great for elongating the legs.

Other great trios…
Orange, Purple, Black
Navy Blue, Hot Pink, White
Coral, Cobalt Blue, Grey
 

The colored jean craze makes color blocking so much easier. Match a bright color with an opposite color shirt and you are good to go!

BIG SCARVES. Heavy and soft scarves are another trend on the horizon for winter. This great accessory adds color, texture and warmth to any outfit and can be recycled from the fall collection you probably already have. This Tolani scarf Jessica Alba is wearing is very popular. Leopard scarves are a great way to add style to a simple color scheme. We all know black is a huge hit during the winter months. This pattern will spice up the outfit perfectly.


FAUX FUR. This trend can either be done subtly, or strikingly! It looks great on a collar for a hint of chic, but it also can be worn as a vest (our favorite). Rihanna is rocking the collar faux fur and it gives her outfit a “cool” element. Whereas, Kim K is showing fur from neck to hips. Remember, earth tone and deep bold colors go great with this trend. If you want to be comfortable, try jeans and a vest. If you are going out or to a dinner party, try wearing a dress with a fur coat.

Stay warm and cute!

Happy Shopping,

The Love Between Fall and Boots

It’s time for these “lovebirds” to be reunited. Summer (the break up season) is finally gone as of September 22nd – the first day of fall. It’s no wonder why we love the two together. The weather starts to get a little chilly and a great pair of boots is right there to warm us up. Bring on the cool crisp breeze in the air!  I just cannot wait to slip on the latest trends this season. 

What we’ve seen so far in the fashion industry are:

Biker Boots
Wedge Boots
Chunky Heel Boots
Over-the-Knee Boots
Riding Boots


The greatest part about boots are how many different styles you can wear with them. Every girl should have a pair or two in her closet. They can dress up a casual outfit or dress down one of delicacy. Take a look at this picture of Lea Michele – better known as Rachel Berry from Glee – rocking boots with shorts and a long sleeve t-shirt. The options are endless!






Skinny jeans or leggings – pull them over. Boot cut or flares– wear them underneath. A favorite of mine, the Frye Phillip boot, looks great with a plethora of legwear. The Chocolate color with studs around the ankle gives off a biker vibe that is hard to ignore.


If you want to go with the dress and boot combo – another great duo– try a calf-height heeled boot. Jessica Simpson is wearing a very simple dress with boots that accentuate this chic outfit perfectly.


Maybe wrap a light scarf around your neck as well and walk out of the house feeling cute, warm and fashionably ready to take on a fall day feet first, with its lovebird – boots.

Add a pair to your closet and don’t keep these two separated any longer!

Everyone has their favorites but try stepping out of the box by shopping with OneLittleBox this season. Check out our current selection and keep your eyes open in the next couple of months while we receive new styles by Naughty Monkey, Steve Madden, Vince Camuto, Frye and Jessica Simpson.
