TOBE REPORT SEPTEMBER 2014
HOW SHE WEARS IT FALL/WINTER 2014
Hello Readers, Now that you’ve been updated with the upcoming colors for this winter season, I am even more excited to share with you the “How She Wears It” edition of our report. Our team has gathered tons of key looks from the runways and streets to show you the most unique and best ways to wear these fantastic trends. I’ve heard them say that it’s all in the details, and that is something major we will be seeing this season. Personally, I am the most excited about adorning myself with elaborately decorated garments, rich colors, and dazzling jewels to complete my look. Who doesn’t want to feel like royalty when they walk out of the house? I know I do! But, it’s not all ornate and glitzy. Softer silhouettes are coming into play with sheer garments and less tailored shapes. Oh, and privacy? What’s that? Garments and shoes aren’t the only thing revealing a little something-something this season. Check out the new trend in handbags that reveals much more than a little bit of skin. Now that the holidays are approaching and we are entering the most wonderful time of the year, make sure you update your looks with some of these fabulous trends. All the more reason to make an extreme Christmas list! Is the anticipation killing you, yet? Take a look at she’s wearing it! Enjoy! Alexis Castillo-Snyder Editor-In-Chief

Light is the new dark? We think so! Neutral colors are a dominating trend this season. Garments go light in color and fabric to reveal some skin for that sexy, yet sophisticated, look. These soft and fluid colors and pieces are then juxtaposed with dark and edgy jewelry, shoes, and make-up. So lighten up and go for this fierce style and trend.

Femininity and masculinity are beginning to mesh together. Dress forms are beginning to loosen, taking away from the actual woman’s shape. But don’t let that fool you - these colors and prints are made for women. Mixed-matched prints, puffy skirts and dresses, and classic silhouettes take charge this season. Prepare to look pretty in some of these pastels!
