TheSeptember—StyleIssue
September is the fashion and style issue in the magazine world, and we are thrilled to participate in the trend. We are bringing you fashion that will help keep you on top of the latest styles, and we are also sharing stylish interior spaces and trendy hotels worldwide. Here in the West Valley, we pride ourselves on our unique style: Casual comfort, breezy skirts and outdoor gatherings. When I moved here, I real ized it’s not fashion and flare that makes someone stand out here. It’s what they stand for. My favorite thing about North Peoria is how we all express ourselves through our actions and authenticity. Even our smallest local businesses reflect style trends. Whether you are an emerging realtor, a boutique local collective, or a home-based bakery, our residents are building cottage businesses that are on-trend yet stylish in a North Peoria way. Styles are ever-changing, and we have you covered with where to find the newest fall styles around town. Fashion choices, home styles, food, and tablescapes follow unique trends and are often connected to the culture and music of the day. Style choices of every kind reveal a little bit of our personality, which is a great way to express ourselves. So bring on fall in your best style, and we will see you around town.

Fall in Arizona looks a little different from the rest of the country. While everyone else breaks out the tall boots and sweaters, we’re still battling 100º temps. This means we must get a little creative if we want to dress for fall and still feel cool. We recently worked with North Peoria resident Jenna Oxford and Roka Boutique of Arrowhead to get their take on feeling fall vibes while dealing with our still-warm September weather. “Y’all, I’m from Texas,” says Oxford, “and I love the recent surge in western-themed pieces such as this fringe jacket from Roka Boutique.”

This Michael Stars dress is the perfect autumn rust color and is thin enough that you can wear the long sleeves without dying. Pairing it with fun accessories gives you a complete look with all the fall feels.
Check out our Fall Style Guide on page 42 for more fall trends. Roka Boutique (ShopRoka.com), at 20118 N 67th Avenue, #304 in Glendale, is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Oxford also recommends a good hat to tie everything together and make you look polished.
Another of our favorite fall trends is the use of silk and satin. Oxford loved the black silk jumpsuit. “It feels effortless and incredibly chic—pair it with pretty gold accessories, and you’re ready to caffeinate and conquer!”
Roka Boutique has all the fall colors and prints you need. Bridgette McDonald, Roka Boutique's owner, describes the shop as your local best friend. "Not only for style and gifting," she explains, "but Roka gets to know you!" Stop in and get one-on-one personal attention for your style needs.

Elegance Ease Dinner Party with 30
Quick Tips to Elevate an Intimate Gathering for Friends Sharing a meal with others is a time to share laughter and stories, eat great food and make wonderful memories.
"Some of the best memories are ones made around the table," she says. "Not with what’s on it, but with the people who sit around it."
Peoria resident Maria Kohayan, who frequently entertains family and friends in her Westwing home, echoes that sentiment.
An evening with family and friends can be stylish, elegant and special without costing a fortune, requiring hours in the kitchen or hiring Kohayancaterers.shares tips on the best way to throw a stylish dinner party with ease.

USE THE GOOD DISHES
HOSTING TIPS | EVENT PLANNING + SERVICES32
Remember that a dinner party doesn’t always have to be fancy. Keep it simple with an assortment of food, take-out or a table of appetizers. Our dinner party featured foods from The Sicilian Butcher at Park West ( TheSicilianButcher.com). It’s easy to call the restaurant and discuss what you have in mind, tell them the number of guests you expect and they do all the cooking. You simply stop in and pick up the food.
Add a colorful centerpiece, some candles and a few craft store decorations to create an easy yet elegant tablescape. We called Elite Flowers & Gifts in Arrowhead (EliteFlowersandGifts.com), and they created the perfect centerpiece within our budget.
One of the best ways to elevate takeout orders is to transfer everything to serving plates. Use long, flat dishes to make it easier for guests to help themselves. Kohayan reminds us there doesn’t need to be a special occasion to whip out the nice plates and glasses. “If you have them, use them!” she laughs.
A simple table is instantly more stylish with a tablecloth, nice napkins and candles. Experiment— pair nice wine glasses with everyday plates, vintage serving dishes and seasonal decorations.
KEEP IT SIMPLE
GET A GOOD BOTTLE OF WINE Kohayan encourages everyone to set the mood for the dinner party. Find music that fits the pace for the evening, whether it is quiet and calm or lively andStartupbeat. your guests off with a glass of spar kling wine to get the evening going. As Jennifer Sinconis, co-owner of Turquoise Wine Bar ( TurquoiseWineBar.com), stated, “Every dinner party is better with sparkling wine.” In fact, tastings at Turquoise always start with sparkling wine before sampling the other wines. If you have no idea which wines to serve, stop by 8160 W Union Hills Drive in Glendale to let owners Jennifer Sinconis and Laura Hernandez help you select the best wines to pair with your meal.

• Leopard print is the new neutral. Animal prints, in general, are hot and showed up on this year’s runways. Now, you can treat that animal print as you would have a solid neutral—layer it and add bright accessories.
People are beginning to see the value of investing in good additions to your wardrobe and building on that year over year. Don’t forget to also invest in comfortable clothes that you can wear to the gym, around the house or when you want to go casual. Sustainable materials are on trend, with organic cotton, hemp, bamboo and more trending in both men’s and women’s styles. We pulled together a few of our favorite finds for him and her. These are our go-to picks for fall 2022 style.
Stay On Trend this Fall with Great Finds for Him and Her

• High-waisted trousers or low-rise trousers. Extremes are in this year. Pair high-waisted, wide-leg trousers with a boxy jacket, or choose low-rise trousers with a cut-out shirt or off-the-shoulder option.
Denim is cool again. Denim on denim is popular and the sense of nostalgia makes this a fun trend. Faded or stonewashed denim is most popular, but dark denim has its place.
• Blazers are high fashion. Tailored silhouettes are pop ular, and a micro blazer is the in item right now. They pair well with miniskirts or jeans.
•
• Boots are hot. Cowboy boots are popular again as are short boots and chunky clogs. Pair them with a dress or over jeans.
Fashion trends constantly change, usually taking inspiration from Fashion Week runway shows. One of the biggest trends for 2022, extending into fall, is using bright, bold colors.
ARTICLE BY SUSAN LANIER-GRAHAM GIFT GUIDE | SHOPPING
• Big, boxy jackets are a fashion staple. These are great in black, but other colors can offer a nice accent. Pair with jeans, skirts, knit dresses for a sharp look.
• Silk and satin—oh my! Yes, silk and satin are in this year. Whether it's a dress for dinner, casual pants, jumpers or loungewear, lightweight fabrics with a sheen are all the rage.
Katie Eastwood, stylist ambassador for Stitch Fix, says that, “By celebrating the bold, the colorful and all that sparkles, designers are offering a form of escapism, allowing people to embrace something positive through their aesthetic.”
Most fashion experts agree that you can use on-trend items to accentuate a classic wardrobe. Don’t be afraid to acces sorize and use those Fashion Week shows as a bit of inspiration.
Some of the hottest trends this year include:
• Sequins are for every day. No longer are sequins and sparkles reserved for special occasions. A little bit of bling is hot right now.
• Chunky shoes are the rage. A chunky loafer is perfect for low-rise trousers or a miniskirt.
• Color color color. You can go with a head-to-toe bright color, or go a little slower adding color by choosing that pair of red loafers, a bright-colored scarf or a handbag that sets you apart.

• Accessorize with confidence. Find the perfect hat, watch or statement jewelry piece and go bold and big this year.
• Sporty sunglasses are a great accessory. They can be sporty, futuristic or classic. They pair well with every thing from leggings to suits.
• Fringe is in. Crochet, tassels, and macrame are in like they haven’t been since the 70s. Have fun with fringe!
This season, men and women can showcase their individuality with style choices. Embrace the natural materials in loungewear and experiment with color throughout your wardrobe. Accessorize confidently by pairing classic items with statement pieces.
