Fall fashion weather is here!

At long last, fall is here.  I love this season, the changing colors, halloween, diwali treats, preparations for thanksgiving and most importantly, fall clothes!  I am re-thinking my entire fall wardrobe this year and no, that does not mean heading to the mall to buy loads of new clothes, though I will need a few key pieces.  Watching the blustering wind blow through the trees with barely attached colorful leaves has sent me searching for my leaf earrings, the ones with the dried out pressed leaves dipped in gold.  I got those as a gift from my Dad years ago and now they are actually in style so I need to dig those out.
Amazingly, there are lots of flowers in bloom at this time of the year that has me craving beautiful floral patterned brooches and belts.  Yes, belts!  I picked up a couple of belts with huge flowers for buckles and they are just mouthwatering. The beautiful rust and burnt brick colors of the leaves has made me think of a nice bright winter coat, I don't have anything except black so I will probably need to shop for one soon.
What else is left?  BOOTS, BOOTS BOOTS!!! I have tons of those, black flat ones above the knee (can anything be more sexy?), everyday gray ones with buckles, high heeled black and brown ones ready for work and ultimate alligator skins in high high heels!
Once I buy a couple of cute cardigans in rustic fall colors and a winter coat, I will be totally set for the season.  I am planning to layer, layer, layer all my cute summer dresses over warm snug leggings, and boots topping off the outfits with cute little cardigans and short army jackets (from my daughter's closet). 
Don't forget one last thing, THE BELTED CAPE, yes, Kim Kardashian says it is her favorite piece of clothing for the fall and I agree, okay so I bought a basic black one though I am really into color but I think it is going to look fabulous anyway.
